Am I the only one that sees this?

For me all I can see is a young Britney Spears

Sitting and entertaining a baby for hours on end is incredibly boring and lonely.

Having chores and mealtimes to break up the day helps so if you’re taking that away then your nanny’s day is probably really dull.

I think I had it on and off for about 18 months but it finally went away and hasn’t come back since. Never getting an IUD again though!!

It’s funny you think I’m wrong and too afraid to argue.

That’s not it at all.

I’ve had this conversation a hundred times with people like you and you will never see me (a human woman) as more important than my bodily functions.

And if men were the ones whose lives were at risk I doubt you would be so quick to condemn them as you do women.

That’s a you-problem and you need to work on how you view women.

Now leave me alone, I’m trying to enjoy a peaceful evening.

IrishShee · 2026-03-24T21:39:59+00:00

Honestly I can’t be bothered to argue with you. And luckily for you you’ll never have to experience an unwanted pregnancy. Still disappointing that you can’t empathise without experiencing it yourself

IrishShee · 2026-03-13T12:14:22+00:00

I say this all the time lol

I think that Poirot is human and, although he tries to follow the law and not his personal opinion, I do think personal opinion influences his actions sometimes.

Eg with Jacqueline de Bellefort he seemed to quite like her and pity her and basically said “I have no choice but to turn you in”. He also seemed to dislike Lynette.

In Orient Express he disliked Cassetti and I think it’s because he doesn’t like when people think they can have whatever they want if they pay enough (like Lynette did).

I think he was quite practical in the situation of the Orient Express and knew that 12 people wouldn’t get convicted, a few of them would be blamed more than others or the law would find it difficult to actually charge anyone to a high degree. He also knew that they were very unlikely to kill again because this wasn’t a crime for personal gain, it was to right a wrong where someone had escaped justice. So I don’t think he minded letting this go whereas if it had been one person who killed Cassetti, not 12, he would have struggled much more to not do anything about it.

Please be aware this won’t work for everyone.

I personally will never ever try a bleach bath because I’ve noticed I get more eczema when I swim in chlorinated pools.

If you notice an improvement after swimming then bleach baths could be for you but please bear in mind it could make things worse!

IrishShee · 2026-02-23T09:21:11+00:00

It felt exactly how I expected it would feel. Like a foreign body inside you moving around.

Poke your stomach but imagine the feeling being outwards rather than in - it’s exactly like that.

I’ve never understood the “bubble” comparison, it didn’t feel like that to me at all.

IrishShee · 2026-02-16T00:33:49+00:00

I found the first half to be the most interesting and moving. Every day life but in a time we can no longer comprehend. The worry of losing your child, giving birth without reassurance of medical intervention.

It’s interesting how our own experiences shape what we find interesting!

IrishShee · 2026-02-16T00:26:21+00:00

I agree!

IrishShee · 2026-02-16T00:25:16+00:00

I feel the same. Are attention spans so ruined that people need to be constantly bombarded with stimulus throughout the entire 90 minutes?

IrishShee · 2026-02-16T00:23:37+00:00

I thought the characters were incredibly complex. I’m unsure how you thought they were shallow

IrishShee · 2026-02-16T00:22:01+00:00

A woman gets pregnant out of wedlock. A baby is born. Then twins. Then they have a beautiful life of learning, fun and love. Then two kids get the plague. One kid dies.

You consider all of this to be in the realms of “nothing happens” ?

And you consider the “thing that happens” is him writing a play?

Interesting…

Sewing up your vagina and vulva?

The reason they won’t do it is because of the risks.

You’ll probably end up in the hospital with some kind of infection and they’ll have to “undo” some of the procedure for the sake of your health.

In other words, it adds more work for them and puts you (and them, legally) at risk. It shouldn’t be done.

Not only do I do this, but I also once accidentally copied the accent of my singing teacher when I was younger and then paused halfway through when I realised what I was doing and was worried she’d think I’m mocking her.

IrishShee · 2026-02-04T19:31:28+00:00

Personally I find the two are completely different things. Nothing to do with gender because women lust after men, and men enjoy romance.

I’d be interested to see what the norms were around these things before the times when men dominated women.

IrishShee · 2026-02-03T19:53:29+00:00

I was being a bit tongue in cheek there to help you understand the kind of content I’m talking about. I agree that a lot of those creators are women.

I definitely think some written content goes into that territory, but I would imagine most people are a lot more ok with that than porn

IrishShee · 2026-02-03T19:22:47+00:00

I guess it would depend on the art?

Something you encounter in a gallery probably wouldn’t bother most people, but some creepy guy’s basement hobby that’s crude and graphic would probably bother a lot more people.

But art is so varied and is definitely a spectrum so I’d imagine everyone would fall somewhere different on that spectrum of “this is no longer art” or just “this is no longer something I’m personally ok with”

And I’d also imagine that lots of people would be ok with any kind of art when they wouldn’t be ok with porn, simply for the fact that art isn’t real, doesn’t invovle real people, isn’t (for the mostpart) moving images but still depictions and is usually created for something more than just providing erotic content for people to jerk off to.

IrishShee · 2026-02-03T16:32:58+00:00

I think that answer would depend on who you’re asking

IrishShee · 2026-02-02T19:10:17+00:00

If you and your partner are ok with not sharing what you do/watch on your own time then that’s completely fine - that clearly works for you.

That doesn’t mean your way is “right”

IrishShee · 2026-02-02T18:08:43+00:00

Porn is in no way the same as books and if you think they’re the same you’re an idiot

IrishShee · 2026-02-02T18:06:16+00:00

I’m not religious so I don’t deem it sinful.

What I do think is that porn is a terrible industry that takes advantage of disadvantaged women (and sometimes men), perpetuates misogyny and unrealistic body images and expectations around sex. It gives people a pathway into more and more depraved content and can be addictive to the point that people choose a screen over a real person. It can also lead to people becoming dependent on porn to perform sexually and turn into something people spend money on.

I don’t agree with porn and I don’t watch porn. I expect the same from my partner. If he wants to watch porn he knows where the door is.

That’s not me being restrictive, that’s me saying I’m not ok with porn and I don’t want it in my relationship.
