Does any woman actually like lingerie, or do they just wear it for the male gaze?

tbh i find lingerie quite cute and aesthetic pleasing. would never wear it for a man tho, maybe for a cute girl who knows. but those red super difficult lacy bdsm ones for men no

Period Thread Anonymous 21888[Reply]

Today, July 8th, is the anniversary of my first period. I will never forget July eighth of 2013 when I had it. It was so painful, I was only 9 at the time too, so I thought Satan had been summoned into my stomach to make me bleed. (I was raised Catholic)

It was horrendous, I threw up, I passed out in bed, had a nightmare of going to Hell and woke up screaming "Jesus, save me!", threw up again and ruined my Game Boy Advance, it was just pure scream bloody gore.

And there's my two cents. Please share your sweet horror stories about your periods.

My mom got so mad at me for getting my period. She hates the fact I'm a girl so much, it is not even funny. I am now 21 and still have to deal with this because I live with my parents.

Ideal Body Type thread? Anonymous 1672[Reply]

What's your ideal body type, anons?

Are you into being thin, or curvy, or maybe fit? Were you born a cone shape but long to be a pear? Or maybe you're a banana but would rather be an hourglass?

I'd like to hear your opinions and what you're doing to get there!

Imo, thin and curvy is ideal (as in mostly narrow but with wider hips). Unfortunately I'm not curvy, I'm more rectangular, I have to stay thin or else I look bad.

thin and flat but with nice waist, just extremely small sick looking

I wish i was tall I seethe every time somebody brings up how short I am i hate it so much. I dont care what body type I just wish I was tall so I could look at people beneath me the way talls look at me now. They mess around with me too saying shit about how theyre letting middle schoolers in wherever I am and asking if i lost my parents. fucking talls should turn short for a day to know what its like. In high school they used to just pick me up just to mess with me. I hate all talls.

Yeah, sure, my hallucinations and delusions were just a myth invented by ebil corpos.

Returning to the topic of the thread.

>Do you take any? Which ones?

Currently I take paroxetine and quetiapine (ESL, so I don't know their murican names)
>When did you start?
Year ago when my parents finally made me visit to psychiatrist. I felt so bad, that I wanted to be hospitalised despite knowing how shitty my country's psych wards are. Luckily, my genetic disease saved me from going there.
>Are you diagnosed with anything?
Either schizotypal personality disorder or psychotic depression. Yeah, I've been through psychosis and not just once.
>Which ones have you tried? Did they work?
I was lucky to have my antidepressant correct from beginning, but finding a right antipsychotic took some time. I've tried aripiprazole, but it just gave me bad extrapyramidals. Olanzapine made me gain weight very quickly, so it was cancelled.
My current meds are working fine, but I have a fear that once I drop them, I'll return back to shitty state and maybe even worse. They make you dependant, for sure, but it's the case with many meds used against chronic diseases, not only with antipsychotics and antidepressants. Many gastroenterological meds such as laxatives and inhibitors of proton pump make you dependant on them as well, but I guess, becoming a bit dumber than usual is bigger problem than not being able to shit by yourself and having strong stomach bain and heartburn every time you're off your meds.

>Do you take any? Which ones?
Zoloft 100mg (seeing doc in a couple days, bet she will increase it), pregabalin 75mg 3x.

>When did you start?

Feb, I think? maybe earlier

>Are you diagnosed with anything?

PTSD. Scumbag psychologist insisted I "did not seem like someone with PTSD" but both a psychiatrist, and later a hospital diagnozed me with PTSD. Also, depression, dyslexia, dyscalculia.

>Which ones have you tried? Did they work?

Mirtazapine, big regret. Useless for anxiety, could of been useful if the psychiatrist educated me and pointed out only SSRIs help anxiety. So I wouldn't had wasted time and money.

Zoloft tho…it feels like nothing changed and I am still me. Yet my anxiety finally is beginning to chill the hell out. Everything feels normal until "wait…did I just…walk up and talk to that librarian? wait, did I legit just order food on my own, and even was able to walk back up to the cashier and ask him to correct my order? wait….. I MANAGED TO GET INTO SCHOOL?? wait wtf I CAN NOW MANAGE TO CALL MY DOC INSTEAD OF RELYING ON EMAILING HER??" I also find it mind blowing, I was too scared to go to a piercing studio, not cuz pain, but because of severe social anxiety. I had a friend walk me to the place, and still I was under tons of fear since I'd have to eventually go in a room alone with the piercer. But now, I can do it fine all on my own, with just awkward nervousness, no biggie. I also now have the balls to ask for directions from strangers.

Oh, same anon still. I want to empathize the irony of all this: programming + building breadboard and arduino projects is a huge hobby of mine that means a lot, but keep it mind it requires hyper focusing and logic. A soldier with PTSD told me "don't idle. constantly do something, outside of games. that helps with PTSD slowly get under control", and a friend also said to keep depressin at bay find some hobby you can be consistent with. So Zoloft making programming and my IT school harder to focus in is hugely ironic and annoying. But eh, I try to make it thru. We all have more control over our lives than we think, we just gotta keep trying, chief.

I'm on the lookout for a new bag, I tend to carry a ton of stuff with me every day, but my day-to-day purse is so uncomfortable to wear over my shoulder, it has a thin strap that digs in, especially if I have a small water bottle in the purse. I know ideally I'd get a backpack for all my shit, but I find them mostly unfeminine and not practical to grab things out of quickly. My clothing usually doesn't have pockets so anything I carry is in there.

TL;DR
What should I get that holds a vast amount of items, is comfortable and doesn't dig into my shoulder, but isn't a huge bulky backpack? Picrel in black is what I have been using for the last 3 years.

i like the simple 100% cotton bags from the crafts store. they can be dyed into any color so they always match my favorite current style. i always have plenty of them, so when i just need one that is empty for some one-time purpose i always find an empty one without having to empty a bag out. when they get dirty i just wash them in the washing machine. in theory i have pens that wash out so i could temporarily paint something on one but i just realize i have never done it.

You're weight is perfectly healthy, you're not skinny. If anything you could probably benefit from toning your stomach, you're sucking in and posing for dear life and that makes it obvious what you look like relaxed. Thin women don't have deformed ribs like that so just breathe a little girl, it doesn't fool anyone anyway so don't embarrass yourself.

I've thinking about getting into peptides eventually for skincare. Very underrated option for women as an alt to regular products or just straight up surgery. For now I just want topical rigin and injectable ghk-cu but pal-ahk and snap-8 seem to have good benefits as well. I've seen good results like tighter smaller pores this past month from topically applying deer antler velvet cream. I suspect it increases cell overturn through the IGF-1 (growth factor hormone) it contains.

It was a totally decent cut & color, but when talking about restaurants she made a joke about spitting in people's food in a way that gave me such an icky vibe about who she was as a person.

>The sweating and just back hurting constantly.

i dunno if you know, you can regulate your body temperature with how much weight in general you pack on, how many layers of which material you wear AND by what you eat.

i eat mostly fruit in the summer (half a small watermelon is a nice breakfast you coffee drinking, bread-eating normies), helps to keep weight off, keeps me thin, keeps the sinuses clear (do you even know what that means?) detoxifies, keeps everything nice and moist while being surrounded by dry hot air. i see the normies with their conveniencefood weight and i just shake my head because who would choose this.

birth control, heating pads, CBD, midol, orgasms, ive heard some teas help, some people have reported acupuncture helping, lower back massages, and certain supplements.

as for the overflow of blood, I'd suggest a super tampon during the day along with a pad. for nighttime ive heard of girls straight up using diapers that women typically buy after giving birth.
