Obstetric violence thread Anonymous 22508[Reply]

Pregnancy is unironically some horror shit. As if it wasn't enough of a strain on your body alone, it's like society goes out of their way to treat pregnant women like shit because they're helpless. Strangers, doctors, etc. (even your partner can start treating you much worse)

It's just sad. You would straight up benefit from having a bodyguard during birth.

>These people worked far less than us.
Basically an outright lie. This comes from mindless repitition of a single study called the original affluent society. The results of it were found to be unreplicatable.

Even then, it had a very different definition of 'work' than what you're thinking. By this definition, the only work you do is going to the grocery store and you work no more than 1-2 hours a week.

Basically, they pretend that the only thing that counts as 'work' for hunter gatehrers was gathering food, which is only a small fraction of the work they had to do. Most of their work was in processing their food and it also leaves out other things like building fire, clothes, tools, etc.

TLDR, you are misinformed. Please stop repeating incorrect things. Thank you.

Yeah, this is weird. From the mother's perspective, what is even supposed to be the appeal of this? You get to… lie down while a bunch of women put stuff on your body. She can't even move her head to look down at the flowers. If I was in her position, being "pampered" by "the village" would involve, I don't know, being taken out for a group dinner.

I only shave my underarms and do it because it's easier to use deodorant + get clean after sweaty exercise when there's not hair in the way. I do it probably every other time I shower

Overall I find shaving legs to be a meditative thing to do once in a while, but I wear long pants so I have no reason to do it regularly

Overall I think shaving is a waste of time unless you have a specific functional reason for it. Beauty standards and whatever but who gaf. I'm a human being, not a barbie doll to ogle

For those who have gotten electrolysis how does it feel, specifically how much does it hurt? I want to get it since I hate body hair but I'm nervous, especially about the bikini area

Anonymous 22092

>>22091
Depends a lot on the skill of the technician, I think, as well as the part of the body. That said, it barely hurts more than just plucking the hair out normally. Usually they use a topical anesthetic of some sort so it can also basically feel like nothing at times.

It's important to remember that it takes a while to get results. A lot of people seem to expect it to be some kind of instant miracle.

Nobody online bothers to research the history of different jfashion styles anymore, they just buy a bunch of shit off shein or temu and put on ugly makeup and if you dare even give them advice they throw a bitchfit about how fashion shouldn’t have rules and you are against self expression blablablah.

It’s like watching colonization happen in real time. Once you let all the tourists in, they trash what was pure and attempt to change everything about it so they can let more of their people in who have no respect for tradition. It’s a loop that happens to every sub-fashion that gains popularity, and the people who were originally there give up and move to some other community that isn’t infested with larps

Anonymous 22544

>>22541
And those tourists act like they know more about jfashion than you as if their knowledge isnt purely tiktok based and as if you haven’t been into jfashion for way longer than them. I’ve seen so much lies spread about different jfashions and their history by newbies who learned about them through tiktok. So tiring

Can we all agree that Leon is one of most handsome and dreamy male characters in fiction and best in RE? What went so right with this guy?

Anonymous 22502

The reason so many women like Resident Evil 4 Leon is because he is attractive to womens average standards: He's young, shaven, has a hot body and is confident, that's a rarity as most fictional males aren't like this and all videogame characters end up pandering to the male audience, so the male ones end up old and rugged. Both the women and men are equally attractive in this game which made it popular with women.

That's because he has neither of those things. His backstory is that he's a police officer from raccoon city. His personality is making quips (in RE4).

i feel so ugly and i hate it so much. how can i be less insecure Anonymous 22529[Reply]

i hate how i look so much. every time i see my face in the mirror, i start crying because of how ugly i feel. i’ve been insecure my whole life, struggling with an eating disorder since i was eight, and with my appearance in general. i’ve always known i wasn’t conventionally attractive, but over the summer i was talking to a guy i really liked, and he started talking about looksmaxxing and things like that. i began looking into it, and ever since then my insecurities have gotten so much worse.
then in october, i found out he was dating another girl and had been talking to her at the same time as me. that made everything even worse. i hate it so much. for the past few months, i’ve only gone outside at night because i don’t want anyone to see how ugly i am. i hate going to school so much. it’s horrible. half the time i end up skipping my classes because i don’t want anyone to see me.
i only have one friend, and i don’t know what i would do without her. i’ve told her how ugly i feel, and she always tells me that i’m not, but that’s what everyone would say in that situation. she’s one of the prettiest people i’ve ever seen in my life, and i know she’s my best friend and i shouldn’t be jealous of her but i am.
i don’t know what to do anymore. i honestly feel like there’s no hope and i should just slime myself out. i also think i just need to deal with it for now and hope it gets better once i’m older cause i’m only 15. i obviously want to get a good amount of plastic surgery when i’m older but i don’t think i’ll ever be able to afford it😔.
idk if anyone is actually going to see this let alone read all of it but if you have any advice on being less insecure or any tips on being less chopped i would really appreciate it❤️

Anonymous 22531

Well since you looked into looksmaxxing, you could try taking advice from that scene. Honestly because you're only 15 you're pretty much in the best age group to start your "accession" aka glow up.

What are you some things you are specifically insecure about? If its something generally insecure like weight or your skin, those are both very fixable with minimal effort.
Eating healthy, light cardio and washing your face help a lot.

Anonymous 22533

It sounds like your feelings about your appearance are stopping you from living normally. Only going out at night and not wanting to go to school because you feel ugly is a huge problem. Is there a counselor at your school you can talk to?

Your face and body are still going to change a lot if you are only 15. Right now your mental health is the most important thing.

Okay, so I found out hypotension, aka low blood pressure, actually makes you in general less stress resistant. Mine is constitutional so I was basically born this way.

I'm gonna try improving my endurance for doing this >>22322 and report my results. At the very least it should train your body to regulate itself better, I think.

Any nonas have personal experience with this? I don't see much info on hypotension unlike its counterpart for some reason.

>Does any woman actually like lingerie
Yes, I think lingerie on other people looks nice.
>Does any woman like wearing lingerie
Yeah, that too.
I like wearing lingerie when it's cute and comfortable. Same with pyjamas, hair clips, cute pencils, phone wallpapers, whatever, if it's cute and causes no discomfort, that's all the reason I need.
All a matter of taste and mood. If I wanna feel fancy, I'll wear lace, if I'm more in a mood for sth cute, I'll wear my underwear set with little bows on it. I also have silk underwear which is so fancy and comfy, I should probably buy more of it… Whether I put that much time in picking out the perfect underwear for the day depends entirely on how much time and money I have for little things like that though. I usually just wear whatever. I probably have way too many socks but I love them.
>g-strings
I've tried out a tanga once and decided to never wear that again, too uncomfy. No way I'd wear something similar that looks even more uncomfortable.

I have been unable to pick out why the hentai outfits drew his attention. They don't flatter a woman at all, just look "unique"? One of them looks like the Borat swimsuit, I hate it. Some of them he showed me were some hentai volleyball video game he played as a kid. Like why did artist decide these were nice?

How bad does my body look? Anonymous 22181[Reply]

I'm chubby and working on it, currently 58kg trying to reach 50kg, but I don't know if that will be enough, I fear that losing weight won't really make me look that much better since my hips are so narrow. I'm not asking if I should give up on losing weight, I'm asking how bad my body looks.

Hi nona, I don't know how you are doing right now, but I think we have pretty similar fat distribution. Although I am probably taller than you and weigh more. I also have narrow hips with kind of an unflattering shape and losing the fat definitely helped me get a nicer more sculpted waist. But also working on my posture really helped me get a more defined waist. Hope you are well and your weight loss journey is working!

How to deal with feeling so ugly that I don't want to go outside Anonymous 22499[Reply]

I feel really ugly, I know people don't think I'm abhorrent but it really doesn't make me feel that much better. I have a really bad haircut right now and I have to wait probably an entire year for it to be fixed, it's just really bad. How can I go out again?

Anonymous 22500

You can always try styling your hair? Maybe curling or straightening it? Maybe even extensions or wigs could help.

Leaving beauty behind Anonymous 22496[Reply]

Hello nonas. Lately I've become tired with the things I do to try to be beautiful. I understand why I'd want to be beautiful, but I'm tired of it making me feel bad. I'm wasting money and time and I still feel bad even if people tell me I look good. I'm currently stepping away from some beauty habits I used to have, like wearing makeup everyday. I'm considering letting my natural brown hair color go back to. I'm a dyed blonde, I've always wanted to be blonde, but the dye is making me lose a lot of hair, it's really dry and always falling out. Besides I could probably save money. I worry about feeling ugly, but I guess that's unavoidable, is anyone else going through something similar?

Anonymous 22498

I went no-make up for about a year. It was really freeing. You save so much time, money, and mental space. Good luck, Nona!
