You mean even women who are very accomplished are judged more on their looks than on their accomplishments?
I'm not sure about Canada but I'm assuming your cervixes work the same way ours do. Might be worth bringing these recommendations in and seeing if you can spare yourself the torture for a few years!
Could that be considered a sub-category of OCD?
Apparently the recommendation for pap smears has changed from every year to every three years, and according to my doctor may soon be changing to every five years.
This is so silly that I can't muster a response to it, but speaking of pap smears...in the US, the current recommendations from ACOG are
As a person who got into a weird twitter fight with this lady over her watching 12 years a slave and it causing her to think about how mean people were being to Macklemore, I can attest that she is the goddamn worst.
oh my god
I think this might be the first time I've seen all of you in photos larger than your tiny avatars.
We always write "beware of licky dogs" in our comments section when ordering pizza. Never fails to get a laugh. And one driver arrives with dog biscuits in his pocket for our furries. He always gets a very generous tip. (Well, they all do. That's how come we have piping hot pizza delivered in under 20 minutes every…
Thanks! This gives a lot of context. Does anyone know if the housing issue give RT a shot at winning? I could see an employer making the argument that renting two houses was cost-prohibitive. Is avoiding mixed gender housing a valid defense?
Oh emm gee I had a friend go through this too! She was legacy (3rd generation), so they couldn't kick her off, but they sure went out of their way to "break" her. These mean girls called her all sorts of things, went out of their way to publicly humiliate. They'd hunt her down in between classes and force her to make…
I was reading this aloud to my wife and I got to the part about Fantastic Sam's, and my wife just gasped. Then she shouted out, "Winner!" I hadn't even gotten to the bit about how it only straightened in the middle. I'm from Canada, eh, so I don't know why the words 'afro' and 'Fantastic Sam's' in the same story…
16 year old me had acne and Groucho Marx eyebrows. I went to a dermatologist for the acne and a waxer for the brows... Unfortunately I was prescribed Retin A for the acne. It says RIGHT ON THE TUBE not to get waxed while using it, but I was 16 and didn't read the tube. The wax ripped the skin right off. So ya know…
I really, really wish I had pictures of this, but alas, I was too upset at the time to allow any.
My mother decided that nothing would be prettier than a semi permanent bright red rinse in my ginger hair. So she walked in and squirted it on me WHILE I WAS IN THE SHOWER.
Like this?
I have dark black hair. Long dark black hair. But when I was a teenager I was not happy having long dark black hair. However It's hard to lighten black hair when you don't know what you are doing and silly me I thought you could bleach your hair with actual bleach. So I went to the cupboard and got the javex and…
When I ws 15, I read in YM that a teaspoon of olive oil is a good conditioner. I thought, "well if a teaspoon is good, a cup (yes, really) will make it GREAT". I tried to rinse it with....more conditioner, and it made it worse (DUH). I took Irish Springs soap and lathered half the bar into my head....still oily. By…
THIS IS THE BEST NEWS!! so excited for this sideblog.
