I’m referencing the general horrified reaction from commenters. Jane Marie had a terrible experience giving birth and repeatedly describes her vagina as ‘ruined’ and ‘fucked up’. I don’t want commenters to think that giving birth is easy or not painful but I don’t want commenters to fear that their post-childbirth…

thanks for being reasonable. I’m sorry I made you sad.

yep, thanks for helping

I’m pretty sure I never told women not to talk about the realities about giving birth. I wish this was a better story though.

nope, not into “perfect” tight vaginas or delicate women, thanks.

I don’t think your body is gross. I think we can take more care to find satisfying solutions to incontinence that stop short of surgical ones.

Hey, I get that you’re upset, but believe me when I say

We just had different goals reading the article. I don’t want the procedure to be less scary. I think it’s terrifying and I don’t want that near my body. I just wish there was more critical analysis of the procedure and it’s cultural implications.

1. She chose to tell us they were women in hijabs that were considering a procedure commonly used for religious purposes and it made her sad.

This article is fear-mongering that accomplishes exactly what irresponsible journalists do: incites fears and anxieties over natural processes in our bodies in order to justify increased surveillance and intervention. I’m glad that Jane Marie is happy, but she made very specific choices that, if we were sisters or…

It would have been nice to hear about RAINN. If she’s making an effort to shine some light on the services that help, maybe include info on the organization?

Knock knock

If we’re to cluster terms like (mom, step sister, and step-mom) and (ebony, black) and (japanese, asian) we’d see some interesting different results that would move lesbians down in popularity (sorry lesbians).

generally, me too but i recently watched Clueless for the 90th time and realized Paul Rudd has singlehandedly made ex-step-siblings ok for me. I don’t have any ex or current step siblings so that probably helps.

I love this post! I honestly don’t love the outfits aside from the BOMBass cardigan but that’s why I love the potential of these posts: it’s honest and it explains the desires and the science/economics/material decisions that go into a dress performance and I want to hear more from others. I think the opportunity to…

This is a terrible passage and a terrible piece. Read the Times article that’s linked or

America loves when women have sex. Consumer sex is good sex. Buying a brand name drug to have more sex because your husband’s mad at you because you do not want to sex him is good American sex. America does not like it poor people have sex, of course, but privileged categories can absolutely get it.

Actually, one of the problems with Flibanserin is that there are problems with it when you drink while on it too. And this drug is meant to be taken every day. Sooooo....I know that if I were to choose between a drug that has extremely underwhelming performance, known problematic side effects, I’m going with alcohol…
