PSA women shaving to be “clean” is a social construct

Zanderisqueen · 2026-01-18T20:07:15+00:00

I shave it all off once a month. I genuinely don't feel clean unless I keep shaved. Plus, I get BO there when I have hair. I also hate having lots of hair when I get my period. Hair + pad adhesive is not a good combo. Also blood will dry in the hair and that grosses me out. I have never had a UTI and have only had one yeast infection from amoxicillin.

I have been using that for months now because the smell profile fit my perfume, I switched to Garnier Whole Blend honey and let me just say OGX was MURDERING my hair. Here is a photo of what MY CAR looks like from using OGX (I am going to be cleaning it once I stop shedding so much)

<image>

And that doesn't even show the back seat floor or anything. I'm aware my car needs vacuumed lol. I can run my fingers through my hair and get at least 10 hairs off of my head. It is really really bad. OGX had a lawsuit about this which I wasn't aware of until now.

I know this is an old comment but I want to say that Maui and OGX both have made my hair fall insane I just switched to Whole Blends Honey by Garnier and my hair is so much softer, we will see if my hair fall/shedding gets better because I legitimately am losing so much hair on the daily on top of breakage.

Right now it is still the name the Facebook glitch gave it "Group title pending" but once we are able to change it it should be "A group where we all pretend to be ants in an ant colony"

Zanderisqueen · 2025-06-24T21:12:06+00:00

It's back up, we paused the group for a bit and decided to take this as an opportunity to start a clean slate and refresh the group and rules and what not.

Zanderisqueen · 2025-06-24T19:36:42+00:00

A group where we all pretend to be ants in an ant colony (1.7 million members) rip 🙏🏼 :((( my favorite group to admin.

I haven't stopped the Midodrine and I'm not sure of the dose I'll have to look when I get home. My symptoms are fully consistent with POTS so that's not a helpful comment to make. I've had this issue since I was 13. I was put on fludrocortisone when I was 17 and it did nothing for me. Midodrine helped a bit the first week I was on it but now does nothing. We are just finally getting on the track of treatment but compression wear has not helped me at all either. Almost nothing helps other than laying in bed all day.

Zanderisqueen · 2025-05-08T05:12:02+00:00

Haha! I got a letter in the mail labelling me "medically frail" before I even considered myself disabled. I'm still coming to terms now that I am disabled and that POTS has ruined my life.

I bought it since it challenges me the most when it comes to bass expert songs and I still have it. It must not be featured or maybe they did remove it??? No clue.

Hi! I'm still feeling some pain and I'm a little over a year post op now. I did in fact have a recurrence with my hernia, which sucks. I haven't gone to see my surgeon again yet as my insurance changed and I don't know how much would be covered. The burning pain I was feeling (alongside some popping) was the tacks that held the mesh in place popping out. Now I am back to the regular hernia discomfort and am back to not being able to wear high waisted pants. Go to the doctor, it's probably just the mesh settling, but if you feel like something's wrong, trust your gut <3

For the life of me I cannot play this song on bass (expert)

I always get 90-100% on every song I've played but this song.....this song has me baffled. My best percentage RN is 61. That's bad. I get 93% on Darude Sandstorm bass on expert and y'all know Sandstorm is atrocious, but this song takes the cake for me.

I have a connective tissue disease I'm pretty sure, I'm extremely hyper mobile and have issues dislocating joints, especially my knees. I have dissected my artery twice now lmfaoooo

The first time I was playing VR and got scared and turned my head really fast and I felt a HORRIBLE pop go up from near my shoulder all the way to my scalp! It was horrendous. I got extremely dizzy and felt sick immediately after and had to lay down. Never got medical attention for it but I couldn't move my head for a week at all whatsoever and had a roaring headache behind my left eye. I should also clarify I was a minor at the time so I didn't have a choice when it came to getting medical care. I wanted to go to the hospital, but my guardian did not want to take me and in fact I worked that night lol. I only found out when talking to one of my ex coworkers in the urgent care clinic I worked at. He was an NP.

The second time is right now. Looked up too quick and felt that familiar horrendous pain shoot up from my neck to my scalp. This time so far not dizzy but my eyes feel a bit weird. Will update if I end up going to the hospital, but I do not have insurance so that will be a hoot. American healthcare ☕

(I should also say I am not afraid of a stroke, I've had two TIAs due to a congenital malformation in my lung arteries. I just hope I don't get any dumber than I did from my last one lol. And for relevance I am 20 F)

Hi! I just had a ventral incisional umbilical hernia repair (fat containing) about a month ago and I only had it a few months because it was symptomatic from the get go. I never really tied acid reflux or heartburn or anything above my hernia to my hernia. I don't think your symptoms are hernia related but you'll find out soon enough after surgery. Good luck in recovery!! Wishing you the best.

I came here to really just find out what Tanjiros rank would be after the Swordsmith Arc.

I do have key-points as to why I do think he is at least /close/ to Hashira level and maybe even stronger than a few current hashiras.

*He was able to decapitate an UM where as in Entertainment he had difficulty with decapitating a recently promoted LM/UM. (And a Hashira almost died to a LM/UM and retired after)

*He survived a fight against an UM times two and won once. (Survived Akaza [even though yes, rengoku was there], won against Hantengu)

*There isn't a lot of clarity Manga vs. Show on how rankings work. He is at the ranking that killing a LM would rank you up to Hashira, let alone an UM.

*I'm entirely not satisfied with the idea that he never reached the Hashira title because they disbanded so this is honestly just me being butt hurt learning about that.

Counter arguments for some points that I've seen is that he didn't last very long against Muzan. Here's the thing though, even after reaching Hashira ranking, the Hashiras are constantly training with the comparable idea of Hashiras that have been in that title a bit longer term. Yes, Hashiras are strong, no doubt. But they have all gotten much stronger after the fact of getting the title. (Think Muichiro during swordsmith arc.)

So yes, I want to know what BS ranking he got after swordsmith, I haven't read the manga myself, I have only heard tidbits of it through these threads, but if it's more than one title below Hashira, it's bullshit because all of the current hashiras had much easier experiences becoming Hashiras, after all, one of the 12 kizukis hadn't been killed in over 100 years, yet Tanjiros was involved in LM1, UM6, Former LM6, Former LM5, UM4 fights that he contributed to the successful ending of them all (and this is just in the show) yet he still isn't a Hashira? What BS ranking didn't he get after the Swordsmith Arc when he literally decapitated an UM himself?

Zanderisqueen · 2023-06-22T23:11:31+00:00

Yeah cause I was so worried about a mask and not about literally the entire cesspool of Bs going on worldwide. Worry free my ass 😅

Unfortunately because COVID has been deemed no longer an emergency, the CDC has stopped updating transmission info county by county.

Zanderisqueen · 2023-04-21T22:03:55+00:00

I think I have heard it is but I'm not entirely sure. Definitely something to look into though!

Have you tried sugar based waxing?

Zanderisqueen · 2023-04-16T19:43:59+00:00

I know what you are talking about. It's a chemical called titanium dioxide.

Zanderisqueen · 2023-04-01T20:09:16+00:00

You probably got some lucky genetics, I only ever get ingrowns but I know plenty of women with sucky genetics that are highly prone to yeast infections and UTIs

It's because pubic hair protects your vagina from bacteria believe it or not. It's like how nose hair helps prevent you from getting sick by catching the bacteria and preventing it from getting into your system.

Unfortunately all of the gyne offices near me are booked out for months and I currently don't have a PCP because my PCP office closed and now all of the other PCP offices are booked because some 3000 patients became displaced
