I worried about it when I was a kid and teen. It was very rare for me to see other women's bodies, but when I did, I definitely noticed that my labia were bigger than my friends'. I remember one trip to the art museum where I covertly inspected the vulvae of all the naked lady paintings and statues. I was very…

For me it was swimming at the local JCC. My whole swimming kick lasted for 2 months when I was 15 and made no appreciable difference in my overall fitness, but seeing a broad range of naked female bodies in the locker room had a huge impact on me and how I felt about my body.

It does get a little trickier when your tenant a) can afford better lawyers than you and b) spends a lot of time overseas.

I think the "feminine hygiene" product might be unrelated to the soda. "Fresca" means "fresh" in Spanish (and Italian?), so I wouldn't be surprised if multiple companies came up with the name independently.

They have some less ugly ones. I own these: http://www.crocs.com/crocs-kadee/11…

I don't think it has to be all or nothing. It would be hard to prove 100% of the time, but it should not be that difficult for a Canadian company to accept Canadian marriage licenses. International travelers would still be out of luck, but it's just dumb to stick with a system that screws over a large percentage of…

The Huffpo article describes it as sexting "when you're not in the mood". I guess the "unwanted" part just means that one partner isn't getting any enjoyment out of it, not that they are uncomfortable or unhappy with the sexting.

I would assume the customer wants them to change the policy. It's just a company policy, not Newton's Third Law. Policies change all the time, and most airline voucher systems can handle married couples with different names.

They do sell a doll-sized wheelchair (also hearing aids, glasses, crutches, casts, and dolls without hair), which is great. But I don't think any of the books feature a main character who uses a wheelchair or is otherwise disabled. Especially since they do this "doll of the year" thing now, it would be really cool if…

I was really happy when the vending machines in my workplace started showing the calorie counts. I'm pretty good about packing a healthy lunch and snacks, but sometimes I oversleep or run out of snacks or just forget, and the machine is my only option. I don't normally count calories, so before they were posted I…

I would try using the language of sexual preferences and turns-on vs turn-offs. Of course he shouldn't need an explanation, he SHOULD just respect your wishes however you phrase them. He is definitely in the wrong by grabbing at you when he knows you don't like to be grabbed- you are NOT a horrible partner. But it…

This sounds weird, but one of the things that helps me is taking a sip of water after every bite. I think it slows me down enough that I'm mindful of what I'm eating, and eating more slowly makes me much less likely to go for seconds.

It seems a bit extreme to hospitalize her for months just on the slight chance that her sudden, extreme weight gain and her known-to-cause-sudden-extreme-weight-gain-tumor are unrelated.

Not that simple. Food that you eat can be converted into either immediately useable energy, glycogen for short-term storage, or fat for long-term storage. A healthy person's body will determine the appropriate percentages based on genetics, activity level and how much food they usually eat.

It may depend on whether there's a shortage of vaccine in your area/hospital. My old doctor would always tell me whether or not there was a shortage that year. If there was plenty of vaccine I'd get one, but if not I'd take my chances as a young, healthy adult. Now that I work at a university I get the flu shot every…

I am the product of an NT-Aspie marriage, so it does work sometimes. But it's not easy, and it was a big source of conflict for my parents.

My brother and I both have asthma. He got a diagnosis and medicine when he complained about not being able to breathe well enough. When I made the same complaint, I got a "meditation and relaxation for dummies" book.

Could be counterfeiting, but my guess is they were re-selling in a country where designer goods aren't as available. They spend all day getting strangers to buy purses for 1500 euro, then ship them somewhere else to be sold for 2000 euro.

I once had a stranger try to unlock my apartment door at 2am- I woke up to the sound of a key in the lock. I freaked the fuck out, banged on the door while screaming obscenities, but I didn't think about opening the damn door. When you're scared, you don't remove the barrier between you and the thing scaring you. And…

I think part of it is just a desire for grandchildren and the fear that women have a shorter period of time in which to find a husband and have babies. A lot of my guy friends get the same pressure to marry and reproduce from their parents, but with less urgency because the parents feel that men have more time.
