Ok, I see what you mean. Yes, I realize some are even squeamish about saying period. But to me, that’s ok. You use the language that your comfortable with. That, and it’s likely that most women don’t think of period as a euphemism. It’s the word our doctors use when we discuss menstruation.

Which is why I said I didn't need a scientific term to describe a period. That sentence implies that period is not a scientific term. Menstruation is the term, obviously.

I also use euphemisms when I describe dropping a deuce. Would it be better if I said I excreted fecal matter through my anus? I don’t know why I need to use scientific terms to describe my periods. We piss, shit and menstruate. It’s not a big deal, at least in the western world. There's no need to celebrate the…

Why do religious beliefs require special treatment? Why on earth do I have to accommodate someone’s superstition?

Just a reminder that orthodoxy in any religion is a fucking drag for the rest of us.

We both tried, after giving it heavy discussion, sex outside of our marriage. It made us miserable. Neither of us enjoyed the effort of dating,…

A similar thing happened to my boy Hecubus back in 2001. He had a saddle thrombosis. It was so quick. He was fine, then he was dragging himself with his front paws. My husband and I rushed him to the vet. From the first symptom to his euthanasia, it was 30 minutes tops. I cried for weeks. Then we got a new kitten.

This show has had a special place in my heart since season 1 (I love you, Nina Flowers). Long live Drag Race.

Surely, by extension, one should speak out when they see injustice in the workplace, whether it be a woman, a man, a trans person, or any of the other ways in which categorize and divide each other.

I don’t understand how this is a question. This is, to me, like saying ‘How, as a Honda driver, should I vote?’. I’m not trying to diminish feminism, so much as to say that it’s irrelevant to use as tool in this way.

I'm so excited. This is one of my small handful of shows. Humans, Dark Matter, and Orphan Black. I need more sci-fi like these shows!

No shit, eh?

I felt good about it. Then I felt bad. Then I felt amazing. I'm such a dork.

If all this leads to me getting laudanum filled chocolates in my life, I'm a happy cramper.

I wish I could favorite this more than once.

Agreed!

And this is a why you should only buy slabs of real Parmesan reggiano. Get the good stuff. Savor it.

Absolutely. I don't see why it was necessary to tag cultural issue onto what is a simple scientific question. Our biology doesn't give any thought to our beliefs or cultural norms.

This guy gave me my full life when he pulled that wig off. Yes queen, yes!!!
