I felt this way through several therapists until I found one I really connected with. If you feel closed about this topic and it's bothering you, it might be the therapist, so I second standpoor's advice. Some therapists may just not work with you. I was already in my mid-30s before I opened up about my lack of…

It was REALLY well done. Great casting and a great adaptation.

You think contraception costs $5-$12 per week for everyone? Jesus.

That's one of my favorite Clair moments. Just spent a half hour looking for a Youtube clip of it.

I hate the thought of the indifferent parenting a lot of children got pre-artificial contraception, when people just had babies because it was a byproduct of sex, and nobody worried much about how they were raised. BUT, I can see how that line of thinking is so much easier on mothers, especially. All this choice about…

Freaky. Connie Britton, in larval form!

Same! Of course, age 15-23 was my awkward stage, so...no place to go but up.

Same for me. I've also gotten OkC messages from (young) 20-somethings looking for 18-22 year-olds. I'm 38, so the odds are bad that I and a 19 or 20-year-old would have anything to talk about, but I guess we're supposed to be fuckable to each other. It's hard for me not to think of my 16-year-old nephew when I get a…

The last guy I dated before my fiance legitimately only wanted to have sex in one position. If I had been stuck with him forever and he had been my first, I would have thought sex was awful.

I think sex is one of those trial and error things. Experimentation leads to wonderful things and awful things that you laugh at. You have to try, though.

What about erm? Midwesterner here.

That sex is awesome, but also deeply personal.

My mother didn't even do that; she just throws the words "slut," "whore," and "bastard kids" around so much that it's no surprise I've always been single.

We might also talk about how several of these states passing abortion restrictions are the same states that didn't expand Medicaid coverage.

Well, a spinning washing machine....come on.

Yeah, I'm just appalled Wendy Davis has to defend that. But I should not be.

Oh, certainly. Mostly linguistic, I guess - that is, a miscarriage is a termination, but a usually involuntary one. Ectopic pregnancy is a term for a specific situation, but I can see where it would fall under "termination" or "abortion."

This is first time I've ever heard an ectopic pregnancy referred to as an abortion. I've always thought of it as a medical emergency. Not that it isn't sad, but either the embryo dies, or the embryo dies because the mother dies. There's really no good outcome there, but I still think of it as different from aborting…

Every guy I've dated has made me feel alone. Much more alone than my being single does.

Woo hoo! Who could resist the happiness of a forced, loveless relationship?
