Thank you. I was sitting here pondering whether our periods were supposed to be a glamorous. Mine isn't usually. Except when I wear the bedazzled tampons with the feather boa instead of a string.

Once you're used to using it, the cup is less intrusive than a tampon, and you don't even notice that it's there. Since you only have to empty it a couple of times a day, you actually have less interaction with your menstrual blood than with a pad or tampon. I would say it makes me think less about my vagina because…

Remind me not to drink the lemonade at your house.

Holy crap. I just realized that professional old guy Wilford was only 51 when he made Cocoon. I thought he was at least 70 at the time.

Whenever I see a comment like that, I think "troll."

Whenever I see posts like that I wonder if that person is on drugs or if they have an untreated mental illness. Either way I wish I could reach through the internet and make them get some help.

I know you're kidding, but I think it means clothes that cover the breasts and nipples. When I was a child in a Cameroon-adjacent country, women typically did not cover their breasts at all.

On his list of people who inspire him, Mr. Hein lists Satan, Jim Crowe and Adolf Hühnlein (a Nazi). Not sure how Ghandi made it onto the list though. Maybe he doesn't realize that Ghandi wasn't white.

And let us not forget that we are all lesbian shitasses.

I will gladly be the meat in that sandwich.

I think if you don't force kids into a stereotype, they will just choose what they like. My son likes computers and dressing up in wigs to make music videos. My nephew loves trucks, My Little Pony, and kept stealing his sister's Tinkerbell shirts until his mom got him his own. My other nephew is fanatical about…

In addition to Baberaham Lincoln said, using the wrong size (too big or too small), reusing a condom for a second ejaculation (which can lead to overflow), not pinching the reservoir tip to provide a reservoir, having intercourse until just before ejaculation and then putting on the condom (rarely, pre-ejaculate can…

Thank you for the clarification. The actual story is much better than my watered-down, reinterpreted version. Your sect also sounds like it has a positive message for women. It would be nice if more people shared your view.

Of course you do and so would I: Because we are liberated and have been raised in a culture where we know that individuals are responsible for their actions. But if were raised in a culture where female chastity defined your family honor, we might feel differently. I'm not saying that I agree, I'm just offering…

Although I am not Muslim I was raised in a related faith, and this is the way that I heard the story: Women were often treated as chattel prior to Muhammad, and were frequently raped and abused. Muhammad loved his wife and she was very beautiful. To protect her, he asked he to cover her face so as not to inflame the…

You kicked a home run!

While I agree that just because a study was sponsored by a private company with an interest, it's not necessarily poor research, it is a valid factor to take into consideration when examining the results. After all, research sponsored by cigarette companies tends to find less harm from cigarettes than studies funded…

I recommend steampunk. I'll be going as an airship captain. Sexy, classy Victorian-styled wear with a science fiction twist.

@A Caving Ape: Agreed. I'll feel worse about criminals losing their health care when I don't have to scrimp to get my son vaccines.

@sebluver: Who knew that navel gazing could be so dangerous?
