If he doesn't want to provide necessary care when it conflicts with his personal morals, then he's in the wrong field. I'm a medical student and a woman, and I find this doctor to be a disgrace. It's hammered into us from day one that we are entering a profession (not a job, not a career, but a profession that comes with societal expectations) that has a duty to advocate for the patient's best interest. His patient was the mother, not the non-viable fetus. He failed in his duty to the patient and to the profession.

I'm so amazed by your talent! I tried knitting and didn't get very far...

The first one is perfect! A great bunny pose!

Eh, every few months I have cramps on the 7-8 range of the scale. Best for me is Ibuprofen and/or a few orgasms. Calms those uterine contractions right down. I'm a med student, so anything mind-altering isn't even an option.

These are downright adorable! Your dress is perfect on you and it frames your beautiful face well!

It seems like every time there's a wedding/proposal photo thread there's always a slew of comments about the poster or his/her mate's weight if they're anything over a BMI of 18. Only half of the commenters seems capable of being happy for someone's happiness. Par for the demographic, I suppose.

I just finished reading this and Children of the Mind about a week ago. Philosophy aside, does anyone have a theory on what Card's aim was with a character like Novinha? It seems like with each of the other unlikeable characters we either came to like them once we understood them (Grego, Miro after he got his new body), or there was some sort of lesson, moral, or demonstration of a point behind their behavior (Qing-jao). I can't find any redeeming quality or lesson behind Novinha. She just struck me the entire time as bitter and selfish to the core. I can't imagine why Ender married her, other than to play on his altruistic nature, giving him an ongoing project.

27/30. Couldn't remember Kyoshi (so ashamed...), Yangchen, and Hei Bei.

I know it involves already having an account, but Netflix has the entire series on streaming. That's how I watched it, and continue to rewatch over and over again. Some movies/shows show up and then disappear as contracts with Netflix change, but Avatar has been consistently available.

That being said, AnimeSeed has it streaming too, for free.

I'm actually surprised that no one has commented on that before. I like to think Mike & Bryan were throwing a bone to the older fans :) LoK seems to be aimed at an older audience, what with the main characters all being in their mid to late teens, so I'll be interested to see how they play that out.

I pre-ordered immediately after following the link, then told three of my Avatar-obsessed friends. Everyone's first comment: "they'd better explain what happened to Zuko's mum".

I just started using the Diva Cup about 3 months ago (that's about 2 periods, for me). I'm a very small girl but I have very heavy flows that leave me changing even super tampons every 1-2 hours. Talk about expensive! The Diva Cup has been a godsend for me. Once you learn how to use it, there's very little mess. For me, tampons were worse and I find pads downright disgusting. The Diva Cup took a few days to get used to physically, mainly because I don't have time for dating and don't have sex on a regular basis, but when I used it for the second period everything was peachy. I've been lucky in that it seems to fit my body perfectly. I've never had a leak, I've never been able to feel it once it's in, and I've never had trouble getting it in or out. I recommended it to my mum (she also has heavy flows), but I don't think I would recommend it to my little sis (virgin, doesn't even like the idea of tampons).

I'm also very pleased with having reduced my carbon footprint, by however small an amount. Never buying pads or tampons again eliminates a lot of waste.

19, 3-4 girls & guys, 26. I get ribbed by my friends about how low the number is, but honestly I prefer hooking up and enjoying foreplay and oral sex. The number is in the high 20's if we qualify oral sex as "slept with".

Also I'm allergic to birth control, so unless the guy is really special it's just not worth the hassle of condoms and worries.

One of the first courses we take in medical school is gross anatomy. A bunch of the guys in my year didn't realize where women peed from. An alarming number, actually.

Parents divorced about two decades ago. My dad converted after the divorce and my mum is still some kind of self-identified Christian. So yea, b-day presents from the mum and not from the dad.

Catholicism is a great reason to drink more wine than usual.

I think the whole "this person just mentioned something that made them uncomfortable, I'll do/say that exact thing to them and it'll be hilarious" humor is just tiresome, whether directed at a female or a male. It's just been my personal experience that the creepy guys do it more often, and more often to females than to any of their male friends.

These are probably the same guys who find negging to be a great pickup method. sigh

Mums are good for that sort of thing, if you can deal with the silent judgment. I like to think I provide my mum with a fair degree of entertainment.

minjy · 1 year

There's no need for secrets with my mum. I called her last week to bitch about losing my jacket and getting manhandled by security while drunk. She called me a dumbass and bought me a new jacket for my birthday.

My dad.... he's a Jehovah's Witness. I haven't told him I'm Catholic. I think he'll shun me, so I never plan to tell him :(

Ah, classic creeper attempt at humor. I feel as if I see that exact sort of exchange in any thread that ends up discussing gender. AskReddit is a special kind of shitshow at times, but every now and then there's a really interesting thread that I can't help but spend hours reading.

chickenoodle89 · 1 year

One of my very first experiences on Reddit was that of being downvoted and insulted after revealing myself as female. It was in AskReddit and I was responding to one of those "How do I talk to girls?" threads. One person in particular made some disgusting comments (that didn't get downvoted!) and it was nearly enough to scare me away from Reddit.

Months later I revealed my femaleness in another thread on AskReddit and although it wasn't quite as bad, I still got a bunch of insults slung at me and, when I refused to be beaten down by their insults, I was told that my bad attitude must keep all the guys away.

I avoid AskReddit now, and only out myself on TwoX. It's just not worth the bullshit.

I'm 26, 4'10.5'', 95 lbs female. I'm a med student and served as an EMT in the past, so being taken seriously by patients and other physicians was a huge concern. I've been asked if I've graduated high school yet. For me the key was all verbal. I lowered my voice (as in spoke with a deeper voice, not a softer one) and made a point to speak with confidence and authority. I also slowed down my speech, since I tended to talk quickly. I didn't change the way I dress or wear my hair, nor do I make a point to wear heels. Even with friends and classmates, I don't have the problem anymore of not being taken seriously or being disrespected. Conveying the fact that you have your shit together is pretty much key.

After reading all of your responses, it seems that even your desire to have her back is more about her than you. Being back with you isn't healthy for her, but it's what you want so you're going to pursue it.

I was in this exact same position several years ago, but on her end. He treated me like crap a lot of the time and I left eventually, but he pulled the exact same act as you are - sincerely promising to change, begging for me to come back, saying he'd give me some space to get over his bad behavior. And I wanted to take him back, because when you're in a relationship for so long, it's scary to be on your own again and have to redesign your entire life in a way that doesn't include the ex. Leaving and staying away are hard, particularly in the first month or two, but eventually she'll look back and wonder why she put up with it for so long and wasted so much time.

So I guess what I'm saying is.... please please please, if you care about this girl's health and well-being, let her move on. Do what's right for her.

I don't really have any good advice, just wanted to offer moral support. My last relationship while in college was pretty much a carbon copy of your situation, down to the LDR and being the one to do all the traveling. He could never make the effort because mommy wanted him at home on the weekends to keep her company. She cooked his meals, did his laundry, hung out with him and his friends, and tried to convince me to go to grad school in their home town. I eventually just got bored with him and his excuses, told him to pull his weight in the relationship or I was leaving, and dropped him when he didn't change. That was about 4 years ago and he still lives at home with mommy, has no real job to speak of, and hasn't had a relationship since.

I'm sure there are some guys who will change when given the ultimatum, but I think the greater likelihood is that most won't. Life is easier with mommy. I hope you have the former. Best of luck!
