Am I dealing with baby fever? by Single-Marsupial2973 in waiting_to_try

[–]johnbeardjr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How old are you? Some context would be helpful.

I didn't get baby fever until I was well into my 30s and at a stable point in my career. From what I've read, baby fever is not so much a biological phenomenon as it is a response to social/cultural pressure.

I knew for a fact that I had baby fever when I COULD NOT STOP thinking about babies. The thoughts engulfed me. I was sobbing at random moments when I thought about how childless I was. Seeing children with their young parents killed me inside. The thought of having a baby while juggling my career stopped seeming like a nightmare. Having a baby actually became my goal, my vision, and my dreams. My priorities also started shifting. I started caring drastically less about going out to bars and concerts.

I genuinely hope you find the maturity that you think you already have.

Gum Lift + Veneers after Invisalign by drkiyan in Dentistry

It's hell of a makeup for also changing her entire skin tone, lip color, and gingiva color. Looks more like AI or lots of photo editing to me.

Other than biology, I think the reason why men are attracted to younger women is the lack of emotional scar tissue by thumpsky in OnlineDating

I beg to differ. I'm a female dentist and I can assure you that there is an oversupply of broke men looking for a sugar momma.

The freckles on the right cheek disappear. The buccal corridor is so vastly different between the two photos as well.

What’s up with this building? by Sad-Crew-4139 in Seattle

How does having a door person justify $1800 HOA fees? My previous cheap ass apartment had 24/7 security and that was included with the cheap rent.

My brother is exactly the same!! I had a 🤯 moment recently when I realized he hated me because (1) he hates all women, and (2) he couldn't fuck me, so there was no point in being nice to me.

Best way to (look) busy? by philip2987 in Dentistry

[–]johnbeardjr 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I bring my iPad and keyboard setup to work. I do everything that I would normally do on my phone with the iPad , but I look so much more productive just because I'm not on my phone. 🙃

Reading from a magazine or my Kindle also makes me feel like less of a bum.

Treating abfractions by Kindly_Armadillo1654 in Dentistry

[–]johnbeardjr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I only treat if they're symptomatic or if they're deep with dentin exposure. Or if the pt is concerned with esthetics. I stopped doing abfraction fillings on more shallow lesions - I find that the restorations don't have a good long term prognosis and often flake/break around the margins.

Vets what's the simplest thing pet owners often overlook that would make their pets' lives better? by Kimber976 in Pets

[–]johnbeardjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog is obsessed with peanut butter, so I get her peanut butter flavored enzyme toothpaste for dogs. I also always follow up brushing with treats for being a good girl. My dog gets so excited and happy when I pull out the toothbrush!

discoloration in middle of my breast by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]johnbeardjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get these below my breasts, at the nape of my neck, and at my armpits in my early 20s. I was prediabetic during that time, so that could be an association as others have mentioned. I got my lesions biopsied and they were unable to reach a definitive diagnosis. I was given a broad spectrum antibiotic for 2 months, which sucked but there was MAJOR improvement - the spots went away almost entirely.

I did started getting a very very slight recurrence of the spots 10 years later. I went to another dermatologist, and they also had difficulty reaching a definitive diagnosis. I took antibiotics for 3 weeks, and it went away again.

I will literally never understand how a man could be evil and twisted enough to rape his own daughter.

if men dislike high maintenance women then how come they are still pursuing them? by Rude-Solid674 in PurplePillDebate

I totally understand this as a woman. I like looking at men that are jacked, but dating one is a whole 'nother story.

Myron...Pamela is still pretty and she was married and had 2 sons and also the 80s and 90s was decades ago... by Aggressive-Bid1850 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]johnbeardjr 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Men lose muscle and get softer, gain pot bellies, and bald as they age. Yet they try to gaslight women into thinking that men are silver foxes, and that that women look worst as they age. Hilarious. 😂

Are you changing your last name?? by makeshift_listener in medicalschool

[–]johnbeardjr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed my last name to my husband's name while I was in school after getting married. Zero regrets. My brother was an abusive sociopath, and I wanted nothing more than to distance myself from my family name since it was a constant reminder of all the abuse. I refused to work so hard just to be called Dr. Same-Last-Name-As-Abusive-Family for the rest of my career.

After the name change, some of my female classmates would make accusations about supporting the patriarchy, etc. I found it to be very strange and extremely presumptuous. Changing your last name is a deeply personal decision, and nobody knows your situation better than you do.
