I did bro, though granted it was years ago. I read that they would cost me the same at first, but non-hormonal IUDs have to be replaced 10 years, while hormonal ones last 3 or 5 (depending on the type), making the non-hormonal look like the better option over time. But with hormonal IUDs, stopping of ovulation and…

If you’re in the US or Canada, the car speeding up is doing what you’re supposed to do. If you want to pass, you move left, and overtake. You don’t drive slowly next to whatever you want to overtake and form a line. 5 - 10 cars can not pass a truck that is keeping pace with the car at the front, so you’re forming a…

I don’t think old should be a pass. Certainly not a pass to do it without asking! If you honestly have trouble standing for a long time *due to* being old, then mention that - but young people can have issues that cause just as much trouble standing (and have just as much right to ask to cut because of it). But the…

Dude... the highway is not a line. Those cars aren’t cutting, they are changing lanes.

Recently the self-checkouts near me have added a wireless scanner at each register, so one does not even have to remove items from the cart to scan them! So much faster and more convenient.

“In a normal cycle, cervical mucus becomes more fertile about a week before ovulation. LH surges right before ovulation, causing the cervical mucus to dry up and the basal body temperature to rise. Ovulation prediction kits (OPKs) detect the LH surge. Women ovulate once per cycle, although more than one egg may be…

“Even if you missed a word you would still be wrong” Hormonal IUDs stop me from ovulating, it’s the only reason I see to go with them over non-hormonal since the non-hormonal last much longer. Maybe the stopping of ovulation is now touted as less common than it was when I was considering IUD options but I’m still…

I was trying to say a hormonal IUD stops you from ovulating (which would be the point of a hormonal one over a non-hormonal) but I missed a word. Not going to go with buzzfeed’s word over real life experience on that one. (And if hormones “ balance out after a while” no one would be able to use birth control pills,…

I’m not the one who is ignorant and has a nasty attitude. I’m sorry if you took my sharing of facts as a nasty attitude.

Uh, how would a man keeping track of a woman’s menstrual cycle have anything to do with not leaving birth control up to the woman? If anything, that’s going to lead to more risky sex when the guy suggests they have unprotected sex during less likely to conceive days. The rhythm method (which isn’t all that effective…

It’s because they see the success of anime/manga/LNs and Japanese movies based on those and want to cash in on that... but don’t understand WHY the anime/manga/LNs and Japanese movies based on those are a success and so bungle the attempt.  

Totally agree. I’m bi so I’ve been on both sides of this and the “No cunnilingus during period sex” is not even about the risk of blood in the mouth (because if that were it, a tampon would work just as well, and could be removed before any insertion); it’s about the fact that the area tastes kind of gross during that…

I don’t see how anyone imagined this is a good idea, especially when you can’t use Today Sponge (a sponge actually made to go into your vagina while you have sex) while on your period due to risk of TSS. Also, having just pulled out a Today Sponge - which has a string on it to make removal easier! - I have a hard time…

“Why would he?” He wouldn’t, that’s my point; they’re not really *tapping* this market that they are supposedly reaching with this sort of thing. So what is their point? They’re not going to make a decent amount off the movie itself, history has shown us.

Well I haven’t watched many American movies in recent years, but I’m just not seeing it in American TV... Maybe it’s the type of stuff I watch. But a diverse cast usually has one African American actor, one Chinese or Korean actor, and one East Indian or Hispanic actor. Almost as if they have some kind of…

I’m sure taking the chance with subtitling something (and even dubbing, if you MUST try to get that segment of the population that detests reading) is cheaper than taking the chance with making an American adaption. Especially since all the American adaptations have, so far, been flops.

But that’s because they aren’t on Netflix. How do we know they won’t reach the untapped market if they aren’t given a chance?

You can’t really make a 1:1 comparison with this; I don’t think we’ve ever had a western *drama* based on a Japanese series (have we?). But if you just talk about live action adaptions in general -

“You want them to re-do them for Americans and keep all of the Japanese characters and settings?” No? I’m pretty sure no one asked for that. Just subtitle the Japanese moves. Why do we need an American one?
