    I think so because I'm afraid even when someone just had like 35 beers and throws up because of that. I think the urgency of the situation of when someone throws up is the scary part for me.

    No it wouldn't bother me so much, I still would hate it because it's smelly and horrible anyway but I wouldn't be afraid because I'd know that I wouldn't catch it and v* myself.

    Yes, I would be. I'm a dental student and freak out when people gag and this
    is definitely not a contagious thing.

    But it's not nearly as bad as contagious v*Edited by: junglemonkey

    I think it would disgust me, in the way it disgusts most people.

    But I doubt it would go beyond that.

    I answered no. Drunk v* and motion sickness v* from other people tend to not bother me because I know that I will not "catch" what made them v*. So if ALL v* was not contagious, I dont think other people doing it would bother me at all.

    I'd still hate it because seeing people sick doesn't make me sick it just puts me into the panic attacks. the panic attacks are what makes me sick.

    I voted no.
    At this point, I'd just like it if I wasn't so scared of getting sick.

    srsly

    no! This would be great. Yes, i would be still afraid of v* myself, but i wouldn't have to worry i will caught sth from someone.

    I would not be afraid.

    In fact, I am not scared of someone v* unless they have a virus. I am more scared of myself v*.

    Yes, absolutely. My mum has migraines and they terrify me. I used to refuse to sleep on the same floor as her when she had a migraine, but now I just wear an mp3 player on full blast. Luckily, she now has medication so she's been okay for a few years.
