If I was going through this process, I'd answer yes even if not true purely out of spite.
- burgerbrain 15y agoIf you were going to do that, then why would you even bother with the form? You would just be wasting your time and theirs.
- jarek 15y agoSo that when they get a number of applicants they need but won't process or match due to policies straight out of 1991, someone maybe possibly finally gets a clue. Of course, as a white male I'm about as boring ethnically as they come, so I realize my potential for making an impact is quite low.
- burgerbrain 15y agoWhat do you recommend as an alternative screening requirement?
- jarek 15y agoHmm, I think "do you have unprotected sex with people you only know casually?" might be a start.
- burgerbrain 15y agoLast time I gave blood, that was in fact one of the questions, more or less... iirc it asked about unprotected sex in general, though in a tighter time-frame. Of course your particular wording is just opening a huge can of worms with "what does 'people you only know casually' mean?".
- jarek 15y agoIt can definitely be improved.
- burgerbrain 15y agoWell, I don't think anybody disagrees there.
