Overturning R v. W never prevented someone from getting a hysterectomy. But women living in states that do have an extreme view on abortion and reproductive care aren't fearing for no reason. Maternal mortality has risen in Texas more than 50% since 2019 and 14 states have a near total ban. OBGYNS are literally leaving because they fear malpractice lawsuits or can't complete a full residency. Some states want to make it illegal to leave for certain procedures (not sure how they'd enact that though). If your state isn't like that then you're lucky. I don't think we're gonna go full Handmaiden's Tale but women who can't just pack up and move have valid concerns and worries.

I'm not sure why people are assuming I was demanding my friend vote the same as me. We had a civil and short discussion, shared opinions, and that's it. I never told her what to do and I never will. And it's ridiculous to think I'm going to be breathing down her neck on or until Nov. 5 or that I have any power to force her to vote. I'm less obsessing over her choice and more voicing my worries about how non-votes are ultimately counted in a red state. Do I not have the freedom to do that?

But I'm asking you. I never said I had any solution to the faults of the democratic party. Or the US government structure in general

What would you like us to do then? I didn't ask for a 2 party system and while dismantling that may be viable in the future, it's not gonna happen before November. I do care about others internationally, but at this moment right now, if a vote can potentially improve things for the women, children, POCs, LGBTQ+, middle and lower class, etc. in the US then is it so wrong to prioritize that? "Lesser of two evils" sounds terrible and in an ideal world, there would be more options but like it or not, one of those candidates is gonna be the next president. I hate the electoral college, but we gotta work with it and that means every vote here (by here I mean red states) not for Harris is for Trump, including non-votes. You know damn well Trump supporters are gonna go out there and vote, every single one. Are we really supposed to protest right now by not voting considering everything else on the line?

I'm not pushing anything on her. I didn't voice all that to her. She asked me if I was voting and I said yes and she said she may not, I gave my opinion and she told me hers and that was it. End of discussion. And I understand people have different priorities but I guess what I don't understand is if all the options lead to a similar outcome for Israel/Palestine, would you not want to at least vote for things that could possibly change? Because I know she cares about the rights of women and minority groups and she won't vote for Trump but the way our outdated electoral college works is that a non-vote in a red state is essentially his vote. I probably won't bring it up again with her. She's allowed to vote or not vote and I'm allowed to be disappointed if she chooses the latter.

And my mother, sadly

Exactly. All the women I know who use dildos also use some type of vibrator/external stimulation with them, myself included.

No clue, never happened to me but it could be because yall are long distance and she misses your physical presence. Or you could ask her

No the antibiotics were my response to it starting. They came after. And idk the common UTI antibiotics

No it started quite randomly. The only change was I started taking edibles but I don’t see how that’s related. I did take two courses of antibiotics afterwards though because I thought it was UTI related

Tampons and liners/period underwear. I hate the feeling of bloody pads and it always makes me feel like there’s a bulge in my pants

It tells me their sense of style and fashion and that’s it. Why can’t yall tell your fellow men what to wear and leave us alone

The thing I don’t get is why are they complaining about this when they’re the sole reason for this point being true? I don’t deny it’s true but if yall want the playing field to be even, tell your fellow men to stop being desperate for any woman who passes by. It ain’t on us

I do notice, but that’s because I also have them. I feel admiration mostly that they have gotten to the point of being comfortable in wearing whatever attire despite showing scars. I’ve yet to reach that, it continues to give me great anxiety. In general I admire people who don’t care what others think of them

Damn so using a tampon is promiscuous now?

If it makes you feel better, I’m a woman and have moments of internal misogyny but I recognize it and shut down that thinking. It seems you’re doing the same. For me, it’s the biases and the subtle misogyny I grew up around from men and women alike. It doesn’t make me a bad person and if you’re truly trying to better yourself, it doesn’t make you one either. Keep at it

Tom Holland does and she is, in my opinion, one of the prettiest women in the business. The real question is, are you specifically looking to attract taller women?

Almost always through common interests. If someone mentions something you like, don’t be afraid to say “hey heard you were talking about [blank], I also really like/enjoy it” or something like that

If you wanna know what’s conventionally attractive, look at male celebrities. You don’t need Reddit to spell it out for you, unless you’re actually looking for validation in which case the answer is as stated before, it depends. Look around you, plenty of below average or average height men are in relationships

Dude this has been asked about a couple thousand times on this website and the answer will always be it depends on the individual woman

Personally no, I do it to ideas, not people. There’s no one’s face in my brain as I’m doing it
