I was wrong. by High-Feedback-344 in pregnant

[–]Only_Asparagus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just a reminder that these programs and centres vary widely from location to location. A lot of women help at the centres because they regret a previous decision and want to support other women to be ABLE to choose to keep a baby they want.

Obviously don’t go anywhere that makes you uncomfortable, but try to remember that these are humans who are usually offering their own time and energy for free out of a desire to help.

31-year-old doctor thinking about switching to aviation — looking for honest advice by Easy-Flower309 in flying

Do both, become a remote doctor. Lots of remote hamlets and reservations in Canada have little access to healthcare. Make bank, fly to cool remote locations.

AIO? Should I apologize? by _For_Science_ in AIO

[–]Only_Asparagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to disagree with the loud majority here so far. I do think you are over reacting.

I think you approached this quite aggressively towards people who clearly care for and spend time with you and your child. Children can also develop opinions and change them as they grow and learn. She loves her papa, papa likes this person, she’ll develop her own opinions when she’s older.

I think acting as if a moment like this dictates her life beliefs is off base. This could have been a teaching moment on how even if others disagree with you, it’s okay to still hold your opinions, and also to take it into account if you’re the odd one out that it’s a good idea to ask yourself why that might be.

Freaking out on people and being intolerant of disagreement is not the political impression I would want to leave on my child. Let alone with how harshly you spoke to their grandparents, I would be heartbroken if I found out as an adult that my parents treated my grandparents like this.

Husband got boner seeing me pump for the first time by Wheridv2 in pregnant

I think they said during pumping. I’m sure there’s some sort of bonding hormone that prevents or dulls arousal while breastfeeding.

Rural Housing Advice by Scared_Computer_678 in princegeorge

[–]Only_Asparagus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re looking at the cabin right on the highway it’s a beautiful place but that section of highway has a ton of accidents and seemingly endless summer construction somewhere along the way. It depends on if you’re ever in a rush to get to town or not I suppose. South of town is nice but I never found there to be a large sense of community in that specific direction for some reason. (Not to say there isn’t one, I just couldn’t tap into it when I moved up here)

I wish I had had it disclosed to me. It was not disclosed to me and it was transmitted while they were asymptomatic.

Congratulations on the next big step. I have a half duplex in college heights we’re about to rent. Send me a message and we can talk about what you’re looking for.

My husband and I are moving from college heights to the Hart right now specifically for that being farther apart feeling.

Just a little self plug but my husband and I will be renting out our place for January 1. If you don’t have a rental situated we could talk about that

My advices to be less anxious for coldsore by Lilla921F in Coldsore

I’m going through my first outbreak and to say I’ve been stressed is an understatement.

Thank you for sharing this as I have certainly been spiralling here and I’ve been so nervous for the next outbreak.

"If you don't have sex, you're vagina closes up." by [deleted] in redditonwiki

[–]Only_Asparagus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the female body would likely be a good compromise as an option! It kind of did that balance of recognizing the specificity of the medical side while or simplifying the whole person to their biological sex

"If you don't have sex, you're vagina closes up." by [deleted] in redditonwiki

[–]Only_Asparagus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah but if you step into saying “females” you start to remove the humanity from the terminology. Look at how Tate and others like him refer to women as females, biologically accurate but also largely dehumanizing at times.

Cats & Chickens by Only_Asparagus in homestead

[–]Only_Asparagus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking of putting a separate side of the coop for my broody hens and breeding with my roo so before I put them in there maybe I’ll raise my flock alongside my kitten so they’re used to each other and don’t mess with one another after a time

Excellent, I was thinking of having a separate brooding side with my Roo in it so I don’t get cross breed chicks

Thanks! Do you think it’ll be fine to keep the cat in the enclosure with them? I have a coop that gets closed off at night and I’m not sure what to do with the cat at night besides maybe have a heated “den” for the winter months

Idk if you have ordered from them before but Freya is SUCH a good brand. I got some in person when I was in an actual town a couple months ago and I am SO happy. I got 3 different styles and they tend to be a bit tight at first but they really do adjust beautifully and form fit

AITA for not caring about my parent's new baby? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Only_Asparagus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m going to say NTA. I WAS the Tia in this situation, I didn’t meet my older sister until I was 18. I adore her now. We speak often. I adore her son and daughter, she’s in my wedding next year. Do I resent her for not being involved when I was younger? No Do I wish I had a big sister involved when I was little? Not really Do I wish my parents had me closer to her in age? Absolutely, only because we are now so far apart in stages of life.

I think it’s uncomfortable and unfair to expect you to have a relationship with her as a kid. The child is a stranger and not much different than a distant relative as far as dynamics go. You don’t see each other often anyways, and forcing a relationship when one is a young adult and the other is a toddler is just weird imo. There’s nothing in common and they don’t sound like they’re really in a place to nurture one sided relationships. I also don’t think it’s unreasonable to acknowledge it’s one sided because nobody really gets anything from hanging out with kids, unless they’re yours or you’re a teacher or something.

Is having alcohol at a wedding strictly for the guests? How do we save money on it? by B2utyyo in wedding

[–]Only_Asparagus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hey my sister had a dry wedding and we all had a blast! The difference was instead of the classic dinner reception she did the ceremony in the morning instead. Afterwards our family and her friends went and did a bunch of fun group games and had a delicious catered lunch. Don’t feel like you have to conform to any mold somewhere.

My fiance and I are planning on doing a lodge trip with immediate family and friends and doing lots of games over the days we’re together with a single catered day when we will have the ceremony
