“#Doctors are sharing bikini selfies after study criticizes \u2018inapp<\/a>ropriate\u2019 attire<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n These docs refuse to scrub their sexy bikini pics from the internet.<\/p>\n

Doctors are sharing their finest swimsuit selfies online after a controversial new study claimed that surgeons who post these kinds of pictures are \u201cunprofessional.\u201d<\/p>\n

The study, published in the Journal of Vascular Surgery, touched on the impact of \u201cpublicly available social media<\/a> content\u201d and how it could affect future patients\u2019 physician choices. In order to conduct the study, the researchers, who were mostly men, created \u201cneutral\u201d \u2014 i.e., undercover \u2014\u00a0 accounts to investigate content posted online.<\/p>\n

They deemed photos that display alcohol, that contain \u201cinappropriate attire\u201d such as bathing suits or costumes, and posts with censored profanity or controversial opinions as \u201cpotentially unprofessional content.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many doctors were quick to confront the suit-shaming study. Both men and women physicians labeled it sexist and troubling, and said those kinds of photos have no bearing on a doctor\u2019s ability to do their job.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are a true #heforshe, then you must speak up against this disturbing study,\u201d tweeted Dr. Mudit Chowdhary, calling for a retraction of the paper. \u201cWorse they are shaming our women physician colleagues for wearing bikinis.\u201d<\/p>\n

None of the researchers responded to The Post\u2019s request for comment on the criticisms launched at their paper. However, Thomas Cheng and Jeffrey Siracuse, two of the authors, tweeted identical apologies after the public outcry, saying in part, \u201cOur intent was to empower surgeons to be aware and then personally decide what may be easily available for patients and colleagues to see about us. However, this was not the result. We realize that the definition of professionalism is rapidly changing in medicine and that we need to support trainees and surgeons as our society changes. We are sorry that we made the young surgeons feel targeted and that we were judgmental.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, using the hashtag #MedBikini, female doctors began clapping back with photos of themselves in their swimsuits \u2014 some with alcohol in hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cA public profile of abject drunkenness, drug-taking or flagrant sexual disinhibition in a doctor is certainly unprofessional,\u201d Trisha Greenhalgh, a professor at the University of Oxford, told The Post. \u201cBut there is surely nothing wrong with a photograph showing a doctor, say, holding single alcoholic drink when off duty, wearing swimwear on holiday or dressed up for Halloween.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greenhalgh, 61, took to Twitter to post her own photo in a bikini \u2014 one that she said \u201cis not sexual in nature,\u201d as she is an avid swimmer. \u201cTo the 28 year old \u2018researcher\u2019 who says this is unprofessional for women doctors, I\u2019m old enough to be your grandmother,\u201d she tweeted.<\/p>\n

Ha! Found a selfie in a bikini. To the 28 year old \u201cresearcher\u201d who says this is unprofessional for women doctors, I\u2019m old enough to be your grandmother. #MedBikini pic.twitter.com\/84CKW9nfhz<\/p>\n

While the paper doesn\u2019t necessarily single out women, the language insinuates that female doctors \u2014 and their bikinis \u2014 are the focus of the study. That\u2019s why so many women in the medical industry found it so offensive, Greenhalgh said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other doctors said it was wrong for the study authors to determine whether their peers were being professional or not. Seattle-based surgeon Lauren Agoubi shared a picture of herself wearing a colorful one-piece swimsuit and drinking a beer to prove her point.<\/p>\n

\u201cI certainly want my patients to trust and respect me, and part of that may be influenced by a public social media presence,\u201d Agoubi, 28, told The Post. \u201cHowever, the bottom line is who decides what is and isn\u2019t unprofessional should not be left up to three men.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stephanie, a medical student who requested her last name not be used to avoid the harassment she\u2019s already experiencing for sharing her swimsuit selfies, pointed out that she dresses appropriately to go to the beach \u2014 in a bathing suit, not scrubs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I saw that it was three men who authored this paper, I was disappointed but not surprised, considering the many conversations that have happened on #MedTwitter about how professionalism is often an arbitrary set of rules,\u201d she said in a message to The Post on Twitter, noting that the term \u201cprofessional\u201d is often used as a veiled way to uphold racism and sexism in the industry.<\/p>\n

Many Twitter users \u2014 physicians and students alike \u2014 are calling for the study to be retracted, questioning how it was funded and published in the first place. \u201cSo this study was published shaming physicians for being \u2018unprofessional\u2019 by wearing bikinis or holding a beer in a photo? And the study was conducted by 3 men who created fake social media accounts to spy on applicants? This \u2018study\u2019 must be retracted,\u201d tweeted medical student Nicholas Leighton.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The journal that published the study did not respond to The Post\u2019s request for comment on calls for retraction.<\/p>\n

But doctors who joined the social movement said they hoped their bikini-clad efforts could shed light on some of the discrimination they experience from their male peers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope #MedBikini is the start of health-care workers reflecting on their deeply implicit misogynistic biases and start to restructure their views on what female professionals look like,\u201d Stephanie said. \u201cWomen should not have to strip<\/a> themselves of their femininity and womanhood to be considered a professional, especially in their personal lives.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
