Harvard class trains doctors to support patients in adultery and BDSM | The College Fix
A Harvard Medical School course teaches enrollees how to provide affirming care for patients involved in adulterous and sadomasochist sexual lifestyles.
The continuing education course, Advancing Excellence in Transgender Health: A Course for the Whole Healthcare Team, is not yet scheduled for 2023, but the university wants to open the class up as a national learning opportunity for healthcare professionals. The class is offered by the Fenway Institute, an LGBT advocacy organization.
One section of the 2022 course agenda contained the presentation Alternative Sexualities in Healthcare: Providing Affirming Care for Patients Who Engage in Kink, BDSM, Fetish, Swinging, Ethical Non-Monogamy, Polyamory, and Open Arrangements.
LWJ once had a patient who had, back in the day, one of largest spanking emporiums on the entire inter webs. While I never visited the site, apparently one could get anything from a feather duster thingy to horrific cat o’ nine tails. All this was long ago. Now you can probably just go to Amazon.
