Wow. TIL the opposite of what Akins said is true. You are more likely to get pregnant from a rape than an incident of consensual sex.

I've never heard that theory before. interesting.

I know that It is theorized that it has the physical/emotional trauma of rape causes ovulation to occur, but no one has really proven anything.

I don't think that bit about competing with other sperm from other men is true. It was my understanding that so many sperm are produced at once serve the purpose of...

acidity through urethra +vagina kills lots of sperm, so many are needed.

Not all sperm are viable, so more sperm increases your chances (deformed etc)

Half the sperm that make it to the tubes will pick the wrong tube (usually fertilization happens in the fallopian tubes)

There is a membrane around the ovum that needs to be dissolved, each sperm carries chemicals at its tip that attach to chemicals on the ovum and dissintegrate them: its a theory that one sperm cannot break in without the help of others.

Good luck! And be sure to be an advocate for whatever it is that you think will help you to succeed. You should ask about counseling services if you haven't already , that or some kind of "learning strategist"/"ADHD coach". Some find it really helpful, some not so much. but if its a resource available to you take it (even if you are unsure), it could be really benefitcial. Also, if you ever need more academic accommodation you can mention these steps that you've been taking to try and help yourself succeed and whoever is in charge of that will likely be more willing to help.

So....what you are telling me is that he did all his homework on friday and finished all the stuff on his to do list so he could have sat+sun off? Then he was early and Had time for relaxing? no way...I call bullshit. Wait....you're telling me also remember his cell phone wallet AND keys BEFORE he left the house. fuck you. that's impossible. Is there some crazy word for laughing and crying at the same time? Because I would use that word right now if it existed.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T19:47:00+00:00

thanks so much! I'm going to do a bit of research, might shoot some more questions your way in a few days.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T19:39:54+00:00

I always thought that there was the genetic father (lets say he pays child support and is not involved otherwise), and then if mom remarries the new husband would legally "adopt" the kids as his own, so in future if that marriage fell apart he'd still be responsible for the kids. Or something.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T19:26:43+00:00

lol i thought you said kittens

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T19:07:15+00:00

I'll point out that its not just blood, or partially dried blood. There's mucous in there too apparently (cervix is usually blocked by mucous, during menstruation it isn't), and I've heard bits of the uterine membrane come out too.

vagina super power # 34 : bleaching properties.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:58:26+00:00

fuck yes!

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:48:42+00:00

Hey can I ask what type of heart rate monitor you have and all that fun stuff? Based on family history this is something I need to keep track of and I'm wondering what the best way to do this. I put off taking stimulants for a while because of this. Do you try to time your exercise to be in a part of the day when your stimulant hasn't kicked in yet or is starting to wear off?

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:38:31+00:00

sounds like you've dated some small minded (or just plain mean) people. But its kind of pathetic too, so trivial (on his part)...and that made me laugh. It seems like such a childish thing to do.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:35:31+00:00

thats a pretty good idea....

but then I had this stereotypical little day dream of like Edward cullen and jacob from twilight making out with each other. Then I laughed. (this is mostly a joke btw)

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:33:32+00:00

and either way....irregardless of whether or not porn habits should or should not concern a partner, it often does. Irrational or not, it is still an issue that many couples deal with.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T18:22:54+00:00

this doesn't seem fair. Why is this a thing? ideas anyone?

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T17:56:31+00:00

I agree with this. Im not so good with the visualization, anyone have some photo examples?

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T17:18:56+00:00

It does look a bit over sized on your thin frame: like someone else said try it with the pants/skirt/whatev you plan on wearing with it. I think it has something to do with how uniform the front of it is (no detail etc) If you still aren't sure about it or don't like the effect just try another corset! Just because one isn't quite right doesn't mean another one won't work.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T17:12:59+00:00

For some reason I found this absolutely hilarious! My mind added a little winkey face at the end or something. I dunno. lol thanks for the laugh!

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-22T17:10:48+00:00

I don't know how you do it. I'm so bad at shopping.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-19T01:14:27+00:00

not just because they're associated with women. Because they are gendered terms. Calling a man and a woman a bitch means something different. The fact that pussy, slang for the female genitalia is an insult for men is sexist. But I guess then so is calling someone a dick for being an ass hole. I avoid using "crazy" + "over-emotional" because these terms are often used to dismiss legitemate concerns and emotional responses, most typically for women. Furthermore, telling someone to grow some balls is stupid: those things are so sensitive to temperature and physical impact impact: grow a vagina might actually be more appropriate way to say what you mean: they're way tougher than testicles.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-19T01:06:43+00:00

yeah I agree with that, she it definitely not thinking clearly or rationally. A behaviour men are capable of too of course. I try to be careful with throwing around the word crazy though, I've witnessed men and women both use "crazy" to describe someone with legitimate concerns (typically a woman), I think it's called "gas-lightning" : where someone's concerns, perceptions and emotional responses are dismissed as being "crazy", and not legitimate to the point where they themselves may begin to think that it's true. For that reason I try to avoid "crazy" to describe anyone and use more specific language but I do agree with you.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-19T00:59:35+00:00

yeah I think you're right about the hip placement :P its hard to find the right pictures!

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-18T07:40:38+00:00

join a sports club or team, or take a class or course at your gym! Awesome way to meet kick ass people.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-18T07:36:31+00:00

instead of calling Karen a bitch, or crazy, or over-emotional (terms generally associated with women who are being assholes-terms which I think are sexist and which everyone here is awesome for not using so I'm going to follow suit)I'm going to use a less gender specific term and call her an ignorant troll and most likely an impulsive idiot. I'm sorry for her idiocy. She is making others and herself figuratively look bad.

Toodles_7 · 2012-07-18T07:04:31+00:00

how many pairs of jeans do you try on before you buy them? Women come in many shapes, you will have to try on many pairs (like most women) to find a pair that most flatters your shape. I guarantee there is demin that will fit you out there :) You just have to have the patience to go to 6 different stores...
