many of us use adapters for many different reasons on a regular basic, and the adapter does exactly what it's designed for - to allow you to plug in a larger/different male cord into a smaller/different female outlet. It is designed to allow the correct flow of amperage for the size breaker that the outlet is attached to. It is designed to allow the use of a smaller 'power' source than the RV is typically plugged into, or vice versa.
Adapters get a bad rap from a chosen few. I'm not sure why, but there is some thought that somehow an 'adapter' is not as up to par as other methods of receiving electrical power. The adapter, though, is simply another 'connection' between two sets of wires, that's all. Just like your shore cord Male plug end, which itself is actually an 'adapter', to allow it to 'plug in' to an outlet. The outlet itself is an 'adapter', allowing two sets of wires to 'come together' in a convenient method - that's all.
They're ALL adapters. Use them as you need to.
FUN!
