Women over 40 don’t want to have sex? Every time I hear that chestnut the only thing I think of is “with you”.

I have talked to doctors about different pipeline drugs like these over the years (for work) and it’s what made me vow never to visit a male OBG. Yes, there are plenty of wonderful male OBGs and lots of lousy female OBGS, BUT on the whole, the males hold some really disturbing ideas about women’s sexuality that women…

This was the part that started the waterworks for me. “I have gained a more profound understanding of what it is to be a mother, both through the depth of the agony I feel when my children scream and cry and from the connection my mother has to my pain.

How has he not been fired by now? Or at the very least put on permanent filing duty with mandatory daily counselling sessions. Fucking psycho.

My husband’s ex wrote him a Facebook message the day we announced our engagement saying “So happy for you!!!!! :) :) :)“ but then like twenty minutes later she posted a video of her singing a mash up of a bunch of Taylor Swift songs, including “You Belong With Me” and “Speak Now” the one where Taylor just straight up…
