Having one of those weird weeks were I get period symptoms but no actual bleeding. Why you got to be like this body? :| Can I get the opposite where I bleed without the symtoms ugh

This must be my body's revenge for eating at Taco Bell two times a week for the past month. But it's so good ;_;

Hate thaaaaat. Like...two weeks out from period and getting cramps and back ache and sore boobs like...that's fine. It's fine. Whatever. I'll just be constantly PMSing. It's fine.

Progesterone is a bitch

 

[hey_monkey]

With my PhD exam stress, my last period lasted forever. I thought it would never end. And the cramps were so bad. Backpain can especially die in a fire.

Thanks. Is my username "edgy." I don't know I just thought of it randomly.

Edgy? I doubt it.
Did you look at MY middle name?

Oh! Now I get it!

It took me like 5 minutes looking at it to see "mad."

This is me right now, too! It's probably my Mirena making things weird. I've had it for 2.5 years and still have a period most of the time except random months like this where I have the cramping but no actual bleeding. Blech.

Never had PMS, just bled like fucking crazy due to a weird birth defect (double uterus, zero now yay). And of course crippling pain. Was never moody or anything

[hey_monkey]

GirlGAF folks who enjoy the makeup - I need a new foundation. Something that isn't too thick, as in thick consistency (thicker coverage is fine; I'll probably get a few different kinds for different days). Will consider any recommendations you have!

 

[hey_monkey]

I have a couple BB creams I like but I need something with a little more coverage at times.

Anyone playing Destiny 2 besides me? I didn't like the first one, but this one is really fun so far.

 

[hey_monkey]

Is it? I had some fun with the first, but mostly with friends, though I didn't feel it was worth the money. You like this one, though?

Yes, it reminds me of Halo Bungie and not shitty Activision Bungie. It actually has a campaign with a story and some really fun level design. I've just been running through solo and having a blast. I thought the first game was a complete snore fest.

Maybe when it comes out on PC! Is there cross-play? Or are you on Playstation?

As someone who spent 100 hours in non-expansion Destiny... I'm loving the second one at lot. Problem is the group I played with on the first are busy and have other things to do, so I'm just enjoying solo.

If you're on PS4, I can pretty much play whenever. I'm EST.
I've been running through solo and doing a lot of the public events so far.

Yeah sounds good. Feel free to add me, my PSN is Truth-Ray. (I'm a guy btw, thought I should say that).

Just think, pockets on clothing weren't even invented until the 19th century so we live in the rare era of pants pockets and we can't even properly use them.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

Why do women's clothing manufacturers torture their customers by not including pockets on their pants?

Because women are valued for their looks and pants with proper pockets would mean less tight, less form-fitting, less sexy pants and women in practical clothing? pfft we can't have that.

Or:

patriarchy

Ugh the oblivious effects of sexism whenever goddamn Hillary threads pop up is just... infuriating.

Hillary threads are so tiring. :/ I miss when the board generally liked her.

Sorry, just saw this. I've been away and not checking GAF much. I'll add you today.

People have almost worn me down over Destiny 2, but I'm a filthy Xboxer, alas.

 

[gaiages]

I found a line of super cheap, super comfortable dresses on Amazon.. with pockets. DEEP pockets.


The only problem is that they're almost too fancy for me. I'm not sure if it's too bright for work.. but omigod I love them.

Link plz I want to try and wear dresses more often but $$

Hey I have a XBO too, I'm excited for all the backwards compatible stuff

I haven't turned it on in weeks though, no time

 

[MsKrisp]

You know I've always complained about pockets and stuff, never realizing how deep the history goes, or that I wasn't alone in my disgust over them. There's so many articles about the history of women's pockets:

*Goes into the Travis thread* Yes, how dare a woman be offended by some guy talking about boobs on an unrelated topoc. This is why Trump won. /s

Ugh why do people not get that there is a time and place for saying things like that. It's not in the workplace though.

My mind is a little blown at that topic 😑

I mean, kind of...maybe not really lol. Maybe I'm naive but I didn't think it would turn into a shitty "well boobs vs asses let's objectify women!!" thread. I thought it would at least be somewhat civil lol

 

[Media]

Thread made me mad, had to post. Oops.

 

[shiba5]

That thread was gross, but unsurprising. It's the reason it's so hard to get people to take sexual harassment seriously. "HUR HUR boys will be boys!"

 

[StoneFox]

I don't know how more men don't get offended by "boys will be boys." Doesn't it imply that they have low standards and that their attraction towards others haven't matured since they hit puberty? Not to mention reinforcing sexist stereotypes that creates bias that men MUST find tits and asses attractive or else there's something wrong with them.

But...but...we must all know which part of a woman they enjoy more--the butt or the boobs!!! If we don't know, how will we, as women, know that they have no respect for us???

HOW.

It also means they have no self control and are inherently inclined to objectify women. But this is supported from so many cultural angles that men internalize it (in many ways), even if the think they don't.

What thread was this?

Straight, white guys are the most privileged group of people on the planet. We will always be judged on our own merits and the actions of others will never stick to us, thus any stereotypes that may be said about us can just be ignored because "they're not talking about me". I do find it sexist, stupid, and problematic, specifically with regards to excusing creepy and sexist behavior toward women, however I don't find it personally offensive because ultimately it doesn't affect me.

I think many men lack empathy and haven't evaluated their own privilege, so they think it works this way for everyone else and the stereotypes they face. I think this is why many seem to be enraged at the very notion of being offended, it's something they've never experienced.

Considering implants are common among female bodybuilders and women in industries dependent on their looks and bodies, I'm sure there are resources for varieties of workouts and desired outcomes.

Which reminds me .. here is a fun one, dude who makes Senrar Kagura games :

https://gonintendo.com/stories/2915...er-wants-to-make-a-title-for-the-female-audie

- Takaki says he wants to try and make games more appealing to the female audience
- he doesn’t completely understand what female fans want, so he wants to investigate that
- Takaki wouldn’t want to start such a project until he completely understands what female fans would like
