Things are going a LOT better for Marten than I expected so far. Longs like the few posters who predicted Padma would indulge herself in a goodbye fling with Marten were dead on. Me, I didn't think Marten would get anywhere near that lucky.

Not really, once she leaves we'll get a mopey, depressed Marten for who knows how many strips. I'm not looking forward to that arc.
Also, sex on a first date? Padma is the definition of slut. I think if Marten got herpes that would be a good lesson for all the readers out there, a girl putting out on the first date is usually a girl putting out for everyone.

Ah, I see it is time to get smacked with the Great book of not-being-a-prick.
Let us see.
1. Though I understand your referring to the first-date rule out of 50s induced habits, but for the record Marten and Padma are not on a date. They have known each other for some time and interacted extensively, though they have never dated per se, and probably never will. Technically the term for this is a one-night-stand.
2. You can't get herpes if you use a condom and Marten is a responsible boy so he probably has some.
3. Though I respect your personal values which labes anything with a sex drive a slut, I'd like to point out that you might want to keep them to yourself. Notice how I am not here to insult you for being a prude. Whispering slut under your breath would suffice. Each has their own personal values and disrespecting them is a crime against democracy, good sir. Seriously. Freedom of speech is one thing, but using it to suppress others freedom of expression is a misuse.
4. I am horribly offended by your use of the term slut solely referring to Padma. Though I understand your personal values place a person who has casual sex at an unpleasant level(see pt. 3) I would kindly remind you that both of them are at "a first date", as you call it. Therefore, both of them are sluts.
5. Generalization fail. Since according to your values both of them are sluts(see pt.4) then Marten should also have herpes since it is clear that since he has had sex with a girl on the first date he is putting out for everyone he has ever met. Unfortunately we are fully aware of Marten's sexual history, unlike Padma's, so you have a contradiction. Either the generalization stands on a nonsensical level and the past 2000 strips are a lie, or your generalization is incorrect. I would vote for the latter.
6. It is not called PUTTING OUT. It is called HAVING SEX. This is not the 50s.
7. Just as a side-note, the amount of sex you have is not directly related to the amounts of STDs you suffer from. Though it seems like a logical step, there are many unfortunate people who have contacted STDs during their first sexual encounter or worse, whilst still being virgins. There are also many STDs which can be contracted through non-sexual means. Herpes also has many subbranches, though through various weird interactions it can lead to the probably genital herpes you are reffering to. But going back to the amount of sex=amount of STDs thing, it is incorrect. People who have lots of sex tend to also be well informed on the dangers and use proper protection, which keeps them safe from most sexual diseases. Obviously, each person treats his/her health differently so this may vary. When in a relationship you can have a huge amount of sex but without any risks of disease(minor a few situaitons: if one of them is infected pre-relationship, which can be checked, if one of the cheats with an infected person, which is them being a bastard and having a low opinion on the cheated-on party is just disrespectful, or in case one memeber contracts a STD through non-sexual means which is, again, extremely unfortunate.
Thank you good sir. A bright future to you! By taking this post into account and improving your attitude you may truly make this world a better place.

I'm looking forward to that arc, because if it turns out that Marten does not go all mopey and depressed, I'm going to enjoy pointing out how wrong you were.
I'll leave the rest of the post for others to discuss - Fen's done quite a nice job, for starters. :)

It's interesting that the term is even still in use. It implies that the woman gives, the man takes (or, occasionally, the other way around), which is kind of messed up if you think about it. Sex, if done right, is a shared experience, and the idea of "putting out" tends to deny that. Then again, I think of what you do with a DVR as "taping" even though I know it goes to a hard drive, so make of that what you will.
Overkillengine:
Last I checked, women had the same rights as men, and the same cravings. If a woman wants a meaningful one night relationship, as long as she is safe and ethical about it, nothing really wrong with it.
Otherwise Marten deserves the same derision that I somehow don't see him getting.
