Benedict Bridgerton - absolutely riddled?

[NorthFaceofthelaundrypile]

Does anyone else look at Benedict Bridgerton and just think he must be absolutely riddled with a raging case of syphilis?
All that time in brothels having it off with anyone in sight with only a reusable sheep’s gut condom as prophylaxis!
Would you?

100% SPOILER ALERT

and not only that hes an absolute moron...spends hours drawing the mystery lady only not to recognise her at all.... he clearly thinks a MAID could never be the fair lady SO CLEARLY the syphillis has decayed his brain...his question about being his mistress- facepalm
Genuinely this is the first time watching bridgerton where im activy hoping they dont get together she deserves so much more

He is definitely not the brightest amongst them. All the Bridgerton men are a bit lacking tbh. Eloise knows her own mind & just wants a decent conversation, Francesca also knows what she wants plus is a talented pianist. Even Penelope has her own business, & money, as lady whistleblown - whereas Colin is just a bit of a showboat who went travelling on the family’s money.

Oh absolutely. The all those Bridgerton boys must have been riddled. Colin going off round Europe? Probably brought back all sorts. Benedicts been at art sex parties since season 1.

That said, would I risk contracting Syphillis for a good time with Benedict? Yes, I would.

Oh 100%. I’d say the knob has rotted clean off him from all the bareback shagging, the dirty fecker

Alot of people probably were in those days!

I think you’re supposed to suspend disbelief to a certain extent with things like Bridgerton and just enjoy the hot men/ lots of shagging at face value

Ha! So glad to see this. I said it from the first episode with Anthony’s shagging and Daphne's duke being a rake. How do these people not contract STIs?
Also a maid is fair game for messing around with but not noble ladies. How do they not put on weight with all the food and drink and doing nothing?

I remember having a ridiculously huge crush on Jamie Fraser from Outlander until someone pointed out that he would probably absolutely reek… couldn’t look at him in the same way again!

I have often thought this about some of the kings in real life who married ladies who were then mysteriously infertile post-marriage. Surely a few were suffering from PID having caught Chlamydia!
