I hate being a woman sometimes.

i dont mind, i dont get cramps that bad, but i will always love being a woman

 

RE: I usually end up either writhing or lying still in a giving-birth position with my legs spread

Huh?

A giving birth position is squatting or kneeling, not lying.

 

i get horrible, horrible cramps and backache the first 3 days of my period..... i throw up basically every hour until they go to bed.... but ya know... i would just hate to be a guy....

but if i was a girl without the periods..... it would make my life a whole bunch easier!

 

Not so, women give birth on their back with their knees up and spread, too.

 

exactly. Doesn't really matter what your sex is, or even species. Living is just a pain sometimes.

 

Things have been kind of hectic. I did some work for the hurricane relief efforts, so i haven't really been using the internet a lot. But i'm back. How're you? Love your sig picture.

I love being a woman. Sure, there are some drawbacks at times, but hey, I think that being a woman is awesome. Think of what we're capable of! I wouldn't want to be a man for even a second.

 

I was lying down when I gave birth. Well, not flat on my back, I was half sitting up with my knees up, but I didn't squat or kneel. It probably would have been much, much easier if I had.

 

RE: Not so, women give birth on their back with their knees up and spread, too.

But they shouldn't.

 

well... regardless of whether they ought or oughtn't
when I have bad cramps I go into that position.

 

Oh please, just suck it up and deal with it, I dont' know if I am sexist but one thing is for sure, women are definitely obsessed with their bodies to a degree of both fascination and distastefulness from my point of view.

 

I'd much rather be a woman than be a man but some of the stuff that comes with being a woman really really REALLY sucks. And I mean honestly, who actually LIKES their period?

 

periods aren't that bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! come on. it's better than havin all that shit hangin' around just beggin' to be kicked. at least we don't have to deal with THAT! haha. i wouldn't want a dick. go fuck yurself Freud. penis envy my BOOB!

 

I also think men have it easier in several ways... periods are a pain, literally. Also we are the ones who most have to worry about getting pregnant -while the man does carry half the responsibility, it's the woman who ends up actually *being* pregnant! (and while I don't deny that can be a *wonderful* experience for those who want to have kids, those who want to remain childless still have all the periods & everything!) Then there's social stuff; while in truly bad neighborhoods no one can safely walk the streets alone at night, there are many places in our Western world where men have it much easier than women when it comes to something as simple as walking or biking somewhere alone, especially after dark. And should I even mention the unequal status of women in many other countries? Even in Western Europe & North America the average wage for men is still higher than for women...
No, I don't mean to whine, I wouldn't really want to be a man or get a sex change or anything, and no doubt men have some problems of their own, but on the whole I think we got the short end of the stick.

 

yeah i agree with u here. men may have greater physical strenghts among other things but we also have advantes that they lack.
sexism isn't the only form of inequality that is prevalent. a much worse form of inequality, racism, is still rampant and is the true root cause of many problems. i myself am a feminist but i try to take all factors into account when forming any sort of opinion. the very fact that we say WE HATE BEING WOMEN means we are dealing ourselves the short end of the stick. we don't have to put up with shit and we should be happy being what we are. beautiful strong important women that are vital to the survival of mankind. if we were like men, not many babies would survive! haha. seriously.

 

Come on girls, things could be a lot worse. You could have been born a tick or something worse.

 

Do ticks get periods?

i dont mind being a woman today even though im just about to pluck my eye brows anopther thing blokes dont do, i have something called holiday body lotion stuff - it applys slight colour to skin, like a tan well i didnt wash my hands last night after applying it and have orange hands.

so today i have big eyebrows, orange hands ohh and the washing machines broke so no clothes - great fun lol.

Ticks probably do get periods.hahaha. That sucks you have orange hands...try peroxcide(spelling?) or something.my washing machine is broke as well. I just wash my clothes in the sink. hahaha.

 

I never thought of the sink - i have found in the bottom of the cupboard some green flares i once wore to a party lol (70's) so i may have to wear them.
