Girl Talk: Pooping Is A Feminist Issue - The Frisky

Girl Talk: Pooping Is A Feminist Issue - The Frisky

Seriously ladies, hemorrhoids and anal fissures are sexier than a fart or having to poop?
Both of which require specialist medical attention if bad enough? cause that's even more fun/sexy.

I bravely took my first poop in my boyfriend's house-an important step in every relationship. the toilet overflowed.
He laughed. Constant in boy-man centered comedy? fart and poop jokes.

I also think its a feminist issue because we have to sit down everytime we have to do anything. pee or poop or just change a tampon/pad-try that
one squatting. Until public toilets are more like thrones, and there is no such thing as 1-ply toilet paper, its still a man's world.

I could go on about how the public toilet is a visible symbol (lack of places to put purses etc safely, change clothes, apply makeup) of the patriarchy especially in
Dublin where you can often tell the age of a pub by how difficult it is to get to the ladies (ie had to be tacked on for that time they started letting
women in-eejits ;) # of flights of stairs, how impossible to find-are people staring back as you blankly look for a green sign-what is that all about anyway?

Someday I must come up with a list of places to go based on toilets. it makes a freakin difference.

BUT I do have one thing to say to the Ladies. Urine is sterile. That is why when stranded you can drink it.
PLEASE stop pissing on the seat ffs while hovering, put toilet paper down if that paranoid (first thing you should check in public
toilet anyway-why on earth would you have a man's public restroom stall with no toilet paper......oh yeah) and if really into hovering, lift the seat.
rant over.

DAMNIT why isnt arsenal on TV today?
my excuse for being online all day.

The Pogues & Kirsty McColl Fairytale Of New York



And Merry Christmas! Though its not time yet, despite what Modern Family would have you believe (hiLarious episode). I'm scared I won't make it home for Crimbo, so I've been studiously avoiding it with this thesis business. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Heard of it? Exactly.
But its time. I heard this on the rad and then saw a truck of trees.
Though there is/was (after Thursday) still leaves on the trees. Making christmas trees crazy expensive. Climate is a changin' even if the times are too slow (oh my growing up place Kentucky with the Ark being built-will they have 2 T rexes (rexi?) on the thing?)

Question: Where is our modern day Bob Dylan? Phil Ochs? Neil Young? Even Tracey Chapman talkin about a revolution.....

See too easy to rant. So Happy Human Rights Day. Celebrate your rights. And I'm officially getting in the Christmas spirit, time for my tinsel-looking scarf ;)

I treasure my regrets. Well some of them. But take the time to watch this video. It's worth it.
