Chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, gonorrhoea. Sure you could have herpes and that isn’t tested for there but it has pretty obvious symptoms. Its generally a good enough test for the general population and if you need something more specific you can just list your symptoms.
From clinic to clinic might be different but even just a basic screening at Planned Parenthood tests for like 8 different things so no, pretty thorough is saying exactly enough and you’re just being stubborn.
You give the exact “it’s just a little herpes” vibes that you mention elsewhere. Why else would you fight everyone so hard when EVERYONE is telling you it’s very easy to get tested for the whole host of most common STIs on the regular?

I don’t know how healthcare works where you live, but here you can. Its free, no questions asked. Get the results a couple of weeks later.
Must be nice in that small section of western Europe. For the rest of us things are not so blissful.
It works this way in the rural american southeast. Grew up in Alabama. Literally just find a college town.

Sure if you are having new partners every week it probably isn’t enough to say you are clean for the next one but for most people it should be fine.

Please do. The gene pool could use some bleach.

Er? You absolutely can do an STI screen without symptoms. Some of the most common STIs don’t even usually have symptoms.

LOL. I know that’s how it works because I’ve done it several times.

Usually the screenings are pretty thorough. I’ve gotten one at least once a year (usually 6 months) for as long as I’ve been an adult.
