There are a lot of men who truly believe that their contribution is more difficult. I can't wrap my head around it. The only possible explanation is that they know literally nothing about pregnancy or childbirth, and they slap their hands over their ears and scream loudly every time someone tries to explain it to them. My sister had a tough pregnancy and childbirth, and afterwards she was like "yeah we're done, no more kids. That was way too difficult." And her husband was like "yeah, I don't ever want to see my wife go through that again, it was a bad time." Which is a normal reaction you should expect of a human with even an ounce of empathy, y'know?

[@SamirCCat]

I think it's very difficult to know whether my period pain is considered bad or only moderate, because you can't compare and feel someone else's pain. I know my sister with severe endometriosis had it worse, and I CAN toughed through mine most times when I take meds. Sure, I vomit repeatedly and can't leave the house without it getting worse, but maybe I'm just exaggerating? It's not that painful imo, the worst is the nausea. On the other hand I've self-harmed severely in the past, so I have a weird relationship to pain... How painful is "normal"?

[@suchnothing]

@@SamirCCat It's hard to tell over text if your question is rhetorical or not so I'm sorry if this isn't useful for you... but just in case you're wondering, a good rule of thumb is that pain or discomfort that interferes significantly with daily life is not normal. So, causing vomiting or making it difficult to leave the house is a sign that something isn't working right. It's the same with a lot of ailments. If it's a mild annoyance or inconvenience, it's probably not a huge deal. If it interferes with your regular functioning or prevents you from doing the things you want to do, it's worth getting checked out. Although with period pain you might have to argue with a few different doctors before anyone will take you seriously 😑 It's a legitimate question though, since people with period pain have been told for decades that it's normal no matter how bad it gets, so how are we supposed to know?

[@KoshekDaKat]

@@SamirCCat If you're vomiting because of the cramps, that sounds pretty bad. I think that once it's at the point where it's hurting you that badly (I mean, causing your body to reject food isn't exactly healthy or "normal) it might be considered abnormal.

When I moved in with my fiancé (boyfriend at the time) and he first saw me without makeup, which took a few months for me to let happen, he said he's glad I'm finally comfortable enough to show him what my face looks like lol. It was funny in the moment, but it got me thinking. He literally didn't know what I actually looked like. And he didn't act weird about seeing me barefaced. He made me feel cute, pretty, and loved. My ex used to call me ugly when I didn't wear makeup, so I had spent years just avoiding having a makeup-free face. Now I don't even remember the last time I wore makeup, and my fiancé still calls me beautiful every single day. Women, don't stay with a man who bases your value on your appearance. It's so not worth it. And it feels really good to go goblin-mode with someone who actually loves YOU. Plus, you save a lot of time and money not fretting over having perfect eyeliner/shadow/lipstick/base/etc.

Imagine a period being an open wound, it can’t be stitched up but can be bandaged. If the bandage isn’t changed, the wound can get infected. The wound will heal in a week or so but there will be spouts of pain. Everyone’s open wound is different and have to be dealt with accordingly. Renewing the bandage may take a minute to change but it’s better than going to the hospital for an infection.

Ok, this rant goes to the AH manager: As someone with PCOS, if im several months late to my period, then I'll be bleeding profusely, enough to soak with period blood any heavy duty tampon or pad in less than an hour. Fill up my menstrual cup (XL) in 30 mins blood runing down my legs with every step I make to the bathroom. Honestly, in that scenario I REALLY PREFER to just sit in the tub in warm water to aliviate the pain and meditate a little. This is really bad the first 4-7 days, it can last about 15-30 days (only if I'm several months late). IT SUCKS. Once I did a cleanse with St Peter cactus (is kind of like peyote, it has mescaline) and I just bleed for 3 month, 90 effing days! Beware, use sacred medicines with a lot of respect, they are WILD, you never know how is going to purge the body. I was prepared to puke my guts out, not heavy bleeding for 3 months consecutively. Also!!! vaginas can squeeze to a degree, yes that's true, but they don't have a sphincter nor are strong enough to prevent period to come out WTAF!!??

If strength was the only criteria than we wouldn’t exist in this form and just still live like 2000 years ago. Somehow something else seems to be required for survival.

[@karowolkenschaufler7659]

the higher body fat and lower muscle mass of women is actually an advantage when you think in stoneage terms. we have enough muscles to hunt and gather (women did hunt as well) but with more body fat women's bodies where insulated better and muscles take up a lot of energy. so less (but sitll enough) muscles means you need to eat less. so... women would freeze to death and starve less quickly then men. women's bodies are built for survival. men's bodies are built to impress. most other mammals have female choice (and our species most likely had as well. for the longest time of our existance as a species)... the males need to be pretty or they don't get to procreate. that's sexual selection. a not completely unimportat part of evolution...

The Trump Organization was run by a woman. Probably the only reason the buildings he built were built to code. He preferred shortcuts like not installing sprinkler systems in high rises. His tower was grandfathered in to not have sprinklers because he quickly built before it was a law not just a twenty year old norm. That right there should have been a sign.

I feel ya, I have a special interest in turtles and get frustrated by names like those because they’re confusing to learn and a lot of people get them wrong. Frogs versus toads is like turtles versus tortoises: “toad” is a common name for a specific type of frog, and “tortoise” is an unofficial term usually used to mean land-dwelling turtles. All toads are frogs but not all frogs are toads :D Thank you for the fun frog facts Edit: Minor edits to clarify tone

[@ohnothepossum]

@@PickledPlums fun fact: in german tortoises and turtles are actually called schildkröten which means toads with a shields! :D

[@ohnothepossum]

And also they can't really be differenciated by size since there are both frogs and toads of all shapes and sizes. Small species of toads are sometimes called toadlets which i think is very cute :) Toads usually have not just rougher but also dryer skin than frogs and are more often found wandering around fields or roads instead of in or around water, because of that frogs tend to have larger webbed feet than toads. Frogs also tend to have a greenish colouration more often than toads, which tend to be more of brown colouration (there are a lot of colours in both frogs and toads tho, for example a toad which is purple (purple harlequin toad) or a frog species that's red and round (tomato frog) amongst many, many others)

If anything, the fence-wolves-analogy could be interpreted about why we need feminism. With much strength over many decades, women built that fence to forge their own safe home in the forest of humankind. Years pass and people start forgetting why we ever needed feminism in the first place and start tearing it down, to their own detriment.

Thinking that 1 feminine hygiene product will last an entire shift or should even be in for an entire shift?! As you can only have a feminine hygiene product inside you for several hours otherwise you can cause severe medical issues if not emergencies that can result in end of life in extreme cases.

That restaurant manager should know that tampons have to be changed every 1-2 hours. Why? Besides leaking, tampons can cause toxic shock from bacteria building up, causing an infection leading to amputation of legs or even death. Besides a period women need to pee often and quickly. Delayed peeing can cause a UTI which in turn can lead to a kidney infection - which may lead to the kidneys being removed and then the poor person being hooked up to a machine to filter the body while a kidney donation becomes available. All because their manager doesn't respect human rights. Being able to use the toilet in a timely manner is one of them.
