Hmm, good to know. I've been pretty anti-Pill as of late, but honestly, if my hormones don't chill out within the next few months, I'll probably consider trying Yaz.
I just had a consultation with a gyno in my area who has been helping women regulate their hormones for about 30 years, which...
Aw, that's unfortunate. I'm sure there are a bunch of people like that in my own city too, but I'm really not into either "scene," and I certainly couldn't bring myself to choose between them. I like rockabillies, I like people into swing, and most of them seem to like me. Maybe it's because...
Grr, my camera hasn't been working! :(
Today I'm wearing high-waisted, wideleg blue jeans (cuffed), white peeptoes, a black top, and my hair tied up in a red bandana.
I don't really have a dresser, since my apartment came with the original 30's-40's built-in armoire (very convenient), but here's what's on top of my desk (which I made my vanity):
Update: I filled the bandage jar with cotton pads.
There's a mirror propped up against the wall to the...
Wow, you have a lucky daughter! I love my mother to death, but she's completely clueless...a product of the hippie 60's. My dad hung out with greasers, but he's irrelevant. And then there's my stepdad, who is half stuck in the 50's with his haircut and attitude towards women's place in the...
What about the cheerleaders who stray from those stereotypes?

I was a Radical Cheerleader at my alternative high school. We "cheered" at lunchtime, at protests, and in promotion of our zine.
I'm on an extremely strict budget, as an underage student in an independent living situation.
Necessities are always first, obviously.
Groceries -- I am very conscious about what I put into my body, as it is my temple. All of the food in my fridge is all-natural, and mostly organic. How...
Oh, I completely agree!! And yes, it really is all about conditioning...and it's really a cultural issue. Some cultures consider menstruation to be very sacred, while in Japan, for ages women were unable to be sushi chefs because they were deemed unclean because of menstruation (in a...
PA_dancer said it all...lingerie/mesh/net bags for less delicate items, but if you have the tiniest doubt in your mind about machine-washing, go with your instincts and hand wash.
For hand washing, lots of people like Woolite; I don't. I'll use maybe a teaspoon of all-natural laundry...
I'm really sorry that you got so much negative feedback for making a perfectly understandable choice. It is strange how some people tend to forget that it IS a choice!
Oh, I totally know where you're coming from. I had my blood tested for anemia and that came up negative, thank goodness...but my periods used to be so bad that I would be borderline suicidal when I was PMSing. I felt like I was going crazy, but it was just a really bad hormonal imbalance...
Yeah, see, I think there's a HUGE difference between feminist, female chauvinist, man-hater, etc.
A feminist believes in equality between the sexes -- equal rights AND respect!
A feminist respects women AND men from all walks of life.
A feminist is grateful for kind gestures from anyone...
I'm kind of on the verge of trying that out, but not yet. I'm currently settling for organic, non-chlorine bleached, 100% cotton, applicator-less tampons. Getting there!
I really miss being on my old birth control...I didn't even need tampons at that time! It made me suspicious, though...
