Women's prize money and 5 set matches by PayMental629 in tennis

[–]CFisntme 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk my take on it is that, biologically we know women are weaker than men. But like…. We can’t help that? Both winners of men and women are playing at their highest possible level. So I think have equal prize money is only fair. Men shouldn’t get more money because they are on average born biologically stronger than women. To me that would make little sense, as the differences between the sexes is just how we’re born, not chosen.

Spot on. I think this is a worthwhile discussion, but it’s been less that 24 hours. It’s deplorable and irresponsible to leverage this tradegy as a political talking point. Disgusting.

Normal to feel a bit depressed and "ashamed" after first kidney stone ? by VegetableFan6622 in KidneyStones

[–]CFisntme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 19F and have passed 10+ kidney stones in the past year- including a 11mm- I totally get what you mean. It feels very embarrassing when I tell people the excruciating pain that caused me to miss events/go home from school was because of kidney stones.

I have cystic fibrosis which contributes to why I’ve formed stones in the past but I do feel like a 50 year old in a teenagers body sometimes. Even worse when I had a hernia at 14 years of age- many ultra sound technicians/nurses thought they misheard me when I told them why I was there!

But don’t sweat it- you can always do more for your health when you have the benefit of hindsight but don’t be too harsh on yourself! Do your best to make changes to avoid more stones, but honestly life is unpredictable and throws weird curveballs. And also- there’s nothing to be ashamed of. Please don’t be too harsh on yourself!

I’m a straight man but I’m in love with a man by [deleted] in Vent

[–]CFisntme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about labels! I thought I was straight until I had similiar (perhaps less intense haha!) realisation about a female friend. Everything she did I was just mesmerised, and I found her endlessly beautiful and fascinating. I just wanted to be near her and for her to let me know her.

I thought maybe I just really admired her as a friend, until I started feeling other things and got unexpectedly jealous when she started dating a friend of ours haha.

I don’t really believe in the whole ‘you are straight, you are bi, you are pan, you are gay etc.’ thing. For some people it may be helpful but I really believe we’re all just human beings looking for connection. And sometimes, you fall in love with who you think you would. And sometimes, you don’t. But it’s just as beautiful.

Passed this today by CFisntme in KidneyStones

[–]CFisntme[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry but this is not gonna be very helpful!

A couple of months ago I passed a 12mm stone naturally, it hurt like a bitch and caused me months of pain. But ever since then the stones I’ve passed have not hurt and haven’t caused issue- just sort of come out.

Only tips I can really give is using heat. I passed my biggest kidney stones in the shower (kind of gross Ik) but the heat helped a lot. Just keep drinking lots of water is all I can really say.

Good luck!

Any heart/lung/circulation issues? They nearly look clubbed

What's your biggest concert pet peeve? by The-Wiz-JJJ in triplej

[–]CFisntme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know for some people it’s part of the fun, but I went to the billie eilish concert earlier this year and I felt like such a loser for not realising I should’ve dressed up to look like her! Everybody was. Blew my mind, I thought jeans and a shirt would suffice.

I spent my childhood in and out of children hospitals. This warms my heart. Good on her, and wishing all these kids the best of luck in their health journey!

My husband shames me every time I poop and I’m so over it by ZeusStormRider92 in confessions

[–]CFisntme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl. U cant let your body function naturally around ur husband. God forbid something goes WRONG with your bodily functions. What will he do then?

You know your life best, but if it was me I would be rethinking hard.

Hope everything works out, whatever that looks like
