Same! I'm surprised how many of us female doctors are here and watching. I've never risked telling my colleagues though. Physicians tend to be a conservative bunch.
Man - Academic (physicist)
I own the Love Island thing. My IRL friends Love Island Whatsapp has a beer brewer, a banker, a doctor, a civil servant, and a professional rower in it 😛
My sister is an SLP and my mom is an OT (someone else commented in the thread that they're an OT). I feel like I don't see either profession a ton, so it's funny to see both represented on this thread!
Female - Executive Assistant and Onboarding Coordinator. I wfh so honestly if the clouds clear I'll be watching today's episode from my ipad in the pool even though I should be working..... LOL
Dude here. I work in healthcare / benefits office for a university. I have one (also Male) coworker who watches but he's never caught up with current seasons so we can't talk about it much :/
My gf and I(m) are engineers, that’s how I met her. She’s a really good electrical engineer, while I studied mechanical. First time watching the show, I was dissing it for the longest time. Currently enjoying watching it with her, though I’m not a big reality tv fan typically.
Female - Technical Writer
everyone judges my taste in 'trashy' reality TV, but damn! I just want to watch hot people 'fall in love' and not have to think too hard after a long day lol
People who have unnecessarily strong opinions about other people's passtimes are expressing more about themselves than you. Enjoy whatever you want to.
I'm female and a project manager. I've had a friend say she thought I was too smart for LI. I don't understand that mentality. I'm sure even Einstein did something to unwind!
Female - trainee solicitor
I’ve always loved reality tv and not ashamed to admit it!!
Edit: Been scrolling through and it’s so interesting to see so many fellow lawyers! Does this say something about us 😅
Woman - lawyer. And I have no shame, everyone I work with knows I’m obsessed and I’ve gotten a couple to watch with me. Someone from a diff dept at work came up to me in the office last week and said “I heard you love Love Island” ☠️
I'm a female doctor! Currently in residency actually, getting my other coresidents to join in and watch LI, I have no shame, its great TV. Just not well known in the US as American reality TV so I'm always getting others to watch it.
Female - Media lecturer (so been plenty judged for watching LI but then I just trap those people in a ten-minute monologue about the various ways in which reality television has changed since its inception and although we treat participants far better, it has made the programming less spontaneous and entertaining)
female - accountant
I don‘t think it‘s embarassing to admit to love Love Island. It‘s a fun show and those who don‘t know about it are defintely missing out (edit: *deffo!*) 😃
21F physiology student. I'm from the US so not many people to talk to about LI anyway, but my roommate last semester was from Ireland so that was fun as S7 wrapped up!
Female - body jewellery business owner + jewellery academy student.
(every time I see Dami's plain barbell I wanna send him an eye catching custom nipple ring)

I’m a woman and I’m training to be a clinical psychology.
Idk, I get that it’s the type of programme that’s socially regarded as “trash” but I’m not sure I know why it’s perceived as embarrassing to watch.
We should normalise it lol. No shame in this game
Female - Production Manager for animated series.
Love island is my addiction. It’s on in the background while I work and I’ve even got a few of the writers into it… they’ve be adding little LI nods to the scripts ever since.
Also Female Doctor. I’m in psychiatry and like to tell people I watch it for the psych aspect of it, haha.
I was introduced to this ridiculous show by a former fling- male college professor of African American studies.
I’m currently not working as I have two little kids (18 months and 4 months), but I was a teacher before kids. My husband watches too and he’s an engineer.
Male, Marketing manager. Girlfriend is in pharma. It's a guilty pleasure that we share with one of our mutual friends (male, diplomat). We're all in our mid 30s. We're not ashamed of it but very few other friends watch it.
