Med student posing nude on reddit

[tantacles]

I don't really care. I was just trolling that thread anyways. And I agree, it was in the wrong forum. Just saying, no reason for it to be locked, considering this wasn't.

Also, I wasn't really paying attention or reading all the posts. I just thought some of the posts were funny.

This post had some good debate going. Nickynaylor was in on it, and despite the fact that there were personal attacks, it didn't completely degenerate.

You won't ever be able to get meaningful data about that, simply due to the nature of the matching system.

Yeah, plus, the US immigration system handles that to a certain extent.

IMGs on visas have to work in underserved areas for a couple years post residency.

AMGs are free to move about the country.

Also the system is set up in a way that AMGs have options (Read: Even those with very low scores still won't go to inner cities), and these positions would instead be taken up by IMGs who score well.

THROWAWAY HAS VERIFIED HERSELF AS NINA1987

No one has said anything. I would be surprised if they did. I really wonder if it's within the school's jurisdiction anyway. I'm not on campus taking nudes or engaging in sexual activity.

Hence this was my original argument. I don't believe it is the place of the school to comment on the activities of a student who is not directly engaging in behavior related to activities for or within the university.

The question I really want answered is when posting pics, how does it make you feel? Does posting pictures provide some form of relief or validation?

what pre-meds don't get is that affirmative action in medical school admissions is about having a certain ethnic group go back and serve their community. Pre meds are neurotic, im glad im not a pre med anymore

I don't see how my time in Clinical Psychology differs so greatly from Medicine. Both involves interaction with patients in a medical setting; both post Bach degree's. Both earn you the title Doctor. Acting as though Medical schools are simply held to a higher standard than all Doctoral or graduate programs is hilarious. In regards to those purely in Undergrad, different schools have different policies however student conduct off campus that does not involve illegal activities is not something I see as punishable. For all those making statements about what Med schools will or won't do, where is your proof.

there are a lot better ways to ensure communities are served by doctors who grew up there and understand the challenges faced by their patients

selecting candidates from those communities is a better solution than selecting candidates based solely on the color of their skin

affirmative action is socially accepted racism

 

[Didierdrogba]

Or any other decent human being, for that matter. A decent person will be a decent person no matter what profession he/she gets into. The thought of somehow medical students and physicians are better/ more moral than others is absurd.

affirmative action is socially accepted racism

Before affirmative action, people of different races could not get through the door (or rather even their foot in the door). For example, the people on capital hill ordered that segregation in schools and the workplace end however years went by and you would still find that 99% of universities and workplaces (in many industries) were virtually 100% white. Affirmative action was used to force feed different cultures into the system. There are repercussions for affirmative action however the benefits far out way them. Even today, many industries still lack true diversity. Various ethnic groups simply don't have the opportunity to enter medicals school without the assistance of affirmative action which helps provide balance and also leads to the creation of programs, grants and scholarships that enable these individuals to attend. We need more Hispanics, Blacks, Asians and other cultures in the medical field as they often have an understanding of their specific cultures that strictly white American Doctors do not. There are cultural difference that can affect both mental and physiological health. There are somethings that Doctors simply cannot learn in Med school, these things can only be gained through experience.

 

[Corriefangirl]

When used in misc, WK usually implies that the dude tries way too hard and is overly sensitive, not that he's chivalrous or just a being "nice guy."

Basically they are over-protective and smothering. The female version is girls who act like they're your mother.

You can be a nice guy a not be a WK, on the flip side you can be an total d**k and still be a WK.

I thought the female version would be a "I'm not like most girls"-girl or the "I'm like one of the guys"-girls. Both always claiming to be very sympathetic to the male point of view.

Yes, but do you really expect black kids from the Bronx ghetto can go through all that schooling to become doctors? With this not being an option, who is more likely to go serve in the inner city, white/ Asian kids with wealthy banker parents from Upper West side, or some random middle class black kids from Queens? (btw, if you think im just making stuff up, there are literatures about this.)

Damn it. This thread is supposed to be about Nina!

 

[Corriefangirl]

it's funny people who complain about her seem to be the ones with the most sexual fetishes

And it's also those same people that will marry a frigid "good girl" and then complain about only getting laid less than once a month. And then they probably go to brothels after work to reenact said fetishes

asians seemed to have gotten through the door just fine without any racist policies to force feed them in

the ultimate goal is to end racism not shift it from "racism against blacks" to "racism against whites and asians"

 

[beBrave]

Indeed, they visit them as they insult the same brothels that they visit and if given the option would sign a petition to close them. Basically these are individuals who have trouble being honest with themselves so they project misguided beliefs.

Its not a matter of shifting it, in many cases if you don't force change, it will never happen. When the school system was ordered to integrated blacks, it never happened (for years) until the government physically enforced it and in some cases sent out law enforcement and military personnel. Asians in Medicine is a stereotype in comparison to whites in Medicine. Just because you see a few doesn't mean that they are represented accurately. There are various Asian groups as well. Japanese and Chinese in terms of culture are like night and day.

You might even say . . . "like yin and yang."

Correct.

Its amazing how individuals on here completely failed to realize how difficult it may have been for her to actually come here and confront everyone directly. Suggesting that pictures should be photo-shopped of her was pretty inappropriate.

 

[LakersWestSide]

Correct.

On another note Nina has been very inactive (she could just be busy). Its amazing how individuals on here completely failed to realize how difficult it may have been for her to actually come here and confront everyone directly. Suggesting that pictures should be photo-shopped of her was pretty inappropriate.

Dude first of all, you get butt-hurt easily. You speak in a condescending manner. It's a discussion so people are not always going to agree with you but you get all sorts of angry. Secondly, unlike you she probably has a life so she doesn't spend her entire day posting here. You take this way too seriously man, lol. Just expressing my own point of view, but looks like it's affected you personally. peace.

Personally I just didn't want the rude comments to scare her off. Like I said, I don't like seeing others get insulted or demeaned. It was nice having the opportunity to actually ask her questions and find out some of her reasoning's directly. Truth be told I'm not completely selfless; I have many curiosities myself.

She posted nude photos on the internet, that were identifiable, on a highly public web forum, and let it be known she was a medical student.

What "reasoning's" are there to understand?

There is no reasoning. She is disturbed, like the majority of women in pornography have been demonstrated to be.

This is why this action is not victimless. It reflects poorly on her, and by extension, the medical community that she represents. It not only harms her, it harms the reputation and authority of the profession.

Whether some claim that they don't care whether their physician is a porn star or not is irrelevant. This extreme view, and probably in many cases, not even true. In reality, many people would be disturbed by their physician also being a porn star. And justifiably so.

Those who say that they don't personally care, and take this opinion of theirs to be the appropriate opinion of everyone else, are showing a blatant disregard for reality. I am appalled that such people may become physicians.

In assuming--for absolutely no reason--that I do not have "life experience" (and that this somehow has anything to do with whether or not my statements are true or not), you show again that your opinion and judgment are completely vacuous.

It hurts to know that our future generation of physicians are so stuck up, closed minded and judgmental. You honestly think that the medical profession is so noble, one person posing nude pictures online will taint the reputation and authority of everyone who practices medicine????
If you want such purity in life, medicine is the wrong choice for ya, go find yourself a monastery and become a monk

EDIT:

They just convicted Doctor Kermit Gosnell of first degree murder; read here.


Excerpt: "The most serious charges stemmed from allegations that Gosnell delivered babies alive during late-term abortions and then snipped their spinal cords or directed underlings to do it."


You spend all your time bashing Nina saying that you are appalled that people like me don't join the witch hunt because "she's hurting your oh so noble profession". Then we have Doctors like this that operate within the law but use filthy equipment and don't really know what they are doing; they kill people and then are convicted of murder just like anyone else. Good luck with your limited beliefs. You aren't anything special and the medical field is a profession like every other. It does require more compassion than others but having MD or DO at the end your name doesn't give you more or less rights than anyone else. Even if you attend Medical school, if you don't complete a residency, then legally you cannot operate as a Medical Doctor. A student is a student and a Medical Doctor is still just a person that serves the community like with any other profession.

 

[throwaway2evry1]

No, not really. My brother knows about it and we had one awkward conversation. Most of my friends don't know, but those who do know, couldn't care less. I don't discuss my private life with colleagues.

Overall, I would say anything I've posted to reddit is extremely tame and wouldn't qualify as "porn" by most standards. I don't really think I have crossed too many lines so to speak. I'm just one average-looking girl, with an ordinary figure, who was having a bit of fun. "Porn star" or any such labels seem inappropriate to me,

Yay! Support! None of the pictures are "take-myself-really-super-seriously-femme-fatal" type pictures. They're just me with a goofy grin in various stages of undress. There's no penetration of any kind and it's just so harmless. It's crazy to see how upset people get about just seeing a woman naked in her bedroom being "sexy" in such an innocent way.

[alpinism]

I thought the female version would be a "I'm not like most girls"-girl or the "I'm like one of the guys"-girls. Both always claiming to be very sympathetic to the male point of view.

AFAIK a WK isn't really more feminine or sympathetic to the female point of view. If that were the case then yes, the female equivalent would be a girl who "acts like one of the guys."

They like broken/bad girls and want to help or defend them b/c they think they need to be "rescued." (even when the girl doesn't want or need any help...which is usually the case)

 

[GUH]

well to be fair to East Asia, the pictures would probably be illegal in communist China.
But yeah I'm not sure why we would want to be like them.

Side note: this is a pretty interesting thread.

 

[qtpai]

WOW! Point taken. Being naked isn't a victimless crime because it reflects poorly on you? I don't really get it, but I suppose I'm just disturbed.

You were not just "being naked." I was naked just this morning (singing and rubbing soap on my balls), and obviously that's not a problem. But nice way to try to reframe.

Of course you don't get it when you refuse to.

I do like how you admitted you shouldn't have linked the naked pictures to your being a medical student, yet now you're backtracking and pretending that you don't understand why anyone could be upset. As if your regret was just a token to throw out. Getting really called out on it sucks, though, doesn't it?

I's pretty obvious that you're not a little disturbed when you continue to attention troll SDN, and in the context of this, whine about how many horrible things happened in your life. So you've been through much worse things than the backlash of this? And you're telling everyone else that? And you're saying this in public, "exposing" yourself more in this way, and pretending that you don't have issues.

It's not that doctors should be perfect, or even that they can't have serious problems in their lives, or even that nutcases can't be physicians. But someone with the authority of a physician, and the responsibilities of one, should not show it in the context of their identity as physician. (Acting like a lunatic behind closed doors is something I'm sure a lot of people on SDN do, and that's perfectly fine--perhaps a prerequisite to being here.) Wearing your **** on your sleeve shows that you have more problems than the problems you wear on your sleeve.

A physician should not intentionally wear their problems or misjudgments on their sleeves. This kind of behavior, especially if it ever became systematic, taints the authority and reputation of the person, and by example, the profession.

Boners and wild libertarian tendencies of young premeds and medical students aside, this consideration should be taken into account.

 

[beBrave]

Ironically I'm not thrilled about that. More interested in hematology and oncology. Just because you support treating women like people, doesn't mean you are obsessed with them. This goes to back to that life experience thing I was talking about earlier.

At the time I did the interview I didn't realize that mentioning that I was a medical student would cause this much controversy. I'm not back-tracking. I felt regret after realizing how it made so many people in the medical community feel. It hadn't occurred to me that others would think that I was casting shame on the profession. In other words, I felt bad that I should make anyone feel that way, but I still don't think that I did anything morally wrong.

I'm not trolling. I could accuse you of the same. I am entitled to my life story. No one has to pity me. I don't see anyone here pitying me.

And of course you would justify being a lunatic seeing as you appear to be one.

 

[alpinism]

Are you afraid of the potential consequences? Has anyone at your school said anything?

Totally unfounded. The majority of women in pornography are mentally healthy adults. By extension, so are the majority of men in pornography.

This is why this action is not victimless. It reflects poorly on her, and by extension, the medical community that she represents. It not only harms her, it harms the reputation and authority of the profession.

Whether some claim that they don't care whether their physician is a porn star or not is irrelevant. This extreme view, and probably in many cases, not even true. In reality, many people would be disturbed by their physician also being a porn star. And justifiably so.

Many people would probably be disturbed by my being gay, yet I hold hands with my boyfriend publicly. In addition, I tell all of my friends that I'm a medical student. Does this mean I shouldn't be allowed to practice medicine? Am I a pox on the profession? Try to answer yes. See what happens. Then try to answer no and see if your argument, logically, still holds water.

Those who say that they don't personally care, and take this opinion of theirs to be the appropriate opinion of everyone else, are showing a blatant disregard for reality. I am appalled that such people may become physicians.

Boners and wild libertarian tendencies of young premeds and medical students aside, this consideration should be taken into account.

SDN is a place for debates of all kinds. You use derogatory language directed at a person that only has a couple of post. You direct so much anger and bias at her and completely ignore all the other things happening in the world. She hasn't been expelled, in-fact it sounds like it really hasn't affected her life much or at the very least, she hasn't allowed it to. She has not given us any reason to believe that she is using controlled substances that would impair her ability as a Physician (she's a tutor for Ivy league students which suggest that academically she is serious and capable). She comes from a difficult background; very often bad experiences will manifest in different kinds of behavior including drug use, sex, or something that becomes compulsive and unhealthy. If all the things that happened in that interview are true, she honestly may just want to feel like people still see her as attractive after being violated, kind of her way of moving on and dealing with it in a non self destructive way.

I'm having a hard time understanding why you specifically target such a small and minuscule thing. When I worked in insurance, the number one thing we received training on was that if we did unethical things we will go to Jail. There was never any worries about us removing sensitive material or stealing or anything like that because on a daily basis we were told that if we did bad things we go to jail. Customers would get concerned when I was handling a 100 million dollar account and I would assure them that on a daily basis we are told that the risk of losing our jobs is a luxury; instead Jail is key word and they usually felt more at ease after that. Medicine isn't a profession exclusive to ethics. She's a woman, posting pics of herself online in between classes and day to day living; she's not thrill seeking in a strip club or trying heroin. Please get over your own insecurities and stop projecting them onto others. You are a Med student and only one tiny little dot among many others. Nina is no different so get over yourself. Now Doctors that willingly kill patients, abuse prescription meds (I've known at-least one personally who got caught and the medical board is scary), sexually abuse children or molest their patients, now their dots are a lot bigger.

EDIT: I really find it sad that you cannot tell the difference between a picture of an age appropriate girl and something that would be considered pornographic. Medical text books frequently have pictures of disrobed women and or men. Before even getting to Medical school a lot of time is spent being familiarized with human anatomy. We both know that you are really battling your own issues but instead you choose to project your insecurities onto her. You can't even divert from directing all blame on her for even a moment or see anything outside of your limited scope. I just feel saddened that she has to defend herself for something that isn't your business at all.
