The Chuck Chicks Thread
A good way to avoid pms is to quit your bitching woman. If midol were available in strong doses in the 60s the feminist movement would have never happened.

firstly i never complained..
i hate women who do..so i actually make an effort not to

The best way to fight cramps is by taking the pill. It is like a little wonder drug. I almost never get them now, and I used to get them so bad I had to stay home from school.
I feel like I should put a post right after this saying "Too much information." But I'm not going to. I think.
There is hope, but not for us.

and talking about makeup and pms in a chick thread..come on we can do better than that? [/B][/QUOTE]
we've already proven we can talk about anything thrown at us, including the social implications of revealing the number of sexual partners we've had, or what we've eaten prior to posting...even our worldview in light of the war in iraq. my point is why are make up and pms inferior topics to discuss in a chick thread? some of us want to talk about these things; you even detail pms-woes in your very next post.
mirkah is so right...it seems almost shameful to enjoy girly stuff around here. but i think it's OK to admit it in the thread dedicated to discussing some of the products and/or the issues we encounter daily.
It does feel almost shameful! Remember back when knox started the whole Hair Do thread, and it was just all the guys talking about what their hair looked like? This thread is needed.
And my favorite make-up/toiletries brand is Burt's Bees. It smells so yummy!
There is hope, but not for us.
good for you, janey...for standing up to your cramps AND for not caving in to the "TMI" temptation 
Yeah, I kick those bastard cramp's ass. But as a wonderful trade-off I now have ovarian cysts!! Yay. Which, when they rupture, are about as painful as breaking a bone.
Moe, what's TMI?
There is hope, but not for us.
TMI = too much information
do you really have cysts? stay on top of that...my friend had a cyst that turned out to be a cancerous tumor. between the time she was diagnosed and the time it was removed, it grew to be grapefruit size (which all good tumors aspire to be...grapefruit sized, that is).

hey soemtiems guys like to talk about thigns like our hair-dos. and osmetiems we like to talk about farts. doesnt make us weird
by the way they smell way rancid
Yeah, why are tumors always the size of grapefruits?! Don't worry, I'm on top of it, that's why I take the pill. It just hurts so very friggin bad, because to get rid of them, they have to pop, which hurts like a mofo, and no one can adequately explain to me why. Why would they hurt?! It's really weird! How come every time I go to a school dance one ruptures?! And then I have to go home early?! Arrggg.

jane, send me the text ([IMG]yaddayaddayadda[/IMG] etc) for the AMT you want included for the anniversary
I did it already. Don't devote this thread to your AMT needs, please.

oh ho ho ho, the participant in one of the most successful hi-jacking-partners is begging for the girly thread not to be hijacked eh?
But this thread is special. And don't you take my hijackings of love and twist it around to make it something horrible, you bastard!

pms..holy for the strangest reason...ever since last fall i get mad back pains just before my period..it must be the hamilton air..cause i have never had them before...and i've been living in toronto for 13 years. the first time i got them, it was so bad that i couldnt even bend down to brush my teeth..instead i had to get on my knees and brush..oh and this is all done in a tiny nasty washroomn that i have to share with 4 other dirty nasty first year boys...welcome to rez life...
yeah..back pains now...dammit i thought they went away [[/QUOTE]
hmmm, never mind
Yeah I hate it when you take a piss outside late at night, and you piss all over your shoes. That fuckin sucks.
with the possible exception of jane s. - none of you has as much a right to bitch about her period as i do.
the upside? i get it an average of three times a year
the downside? it usually lasts more than three times as long, and gets worse as time goes on.
(betcha you're liking yours a lot more now)
debacle is a verb
Well call me a optimist but at least your pushing menopause back 9 months for every year your current cycle continues. If you care about doing the whole build-career-then-have-kids thing of course

eh...have you gone to the doctor about this????
I'm with small_fire. That sounds fucked up.
Weird cycles are a part of adolescence. Going on the pill is supposed to sort them out though, if it becomes a problem
well yeah, i guess i should ask how old odd-reigh is...
but this has happened more than 2 years, she should really go get it checked out if she has not already.
Ditto, I wouldn't ignore that.

Being on the pill also can weird up your cycles.
Actually, being on the pill is supposed to regulate your cycles, at least for most women. And Odd-Reigh, whatever you have sounds a lot like what I have. You really, really need to see a doctor if you haven't already.

most of these problems are not serious, it could be related to fibroids but again, your doctor would know for sure. I wouldn't panic over it but I wouldn't ignore it.
Okay, done with my "mom" speech for now.

Time for my girly manifesto.
I don't have a specific makeup brand. I love bourjois [sic] and my latest obsession is Isadora eyeshadows. Thinking about my cosmetics bag I realised that most of it is in different shades of purple (I just adore purple). apart from that. I have a favourite bronze-golden-brown eyeshadow set that makes my eyes look really green, so I *heart* it. and another favourite look is lipstick as red as my hair and smokey eyes.
I am obsessed with nail polishes. I try to keep my nails long and they are usually blue/black/purple/burgundy. In this department I get over my slight aversion to glitter. The colour I have now is a very funky summery hot pink.
Favourite creambath: Dove (smells fab!)
Favourite body moisturiser: Dove body Silk (and it leaves skin sooo soft)
Favourite shampoo: now it's L'Oreal Elvive for coloured hair
Perfume: "Wish" by Lancaster. Also love the 'cosmic candy' bodywater by Body Shop -but the bastards keep taking it out of circulation... Another divine smell is the Korres Vanilla-Cinnamon body water - good enough to eat...
Favourite underwear: DIM and Triumph.
Don't hate me but I rarely have PMS -either pain or nerves. My cycle is not stable, with a tendency for being late 1-2 months each time, but Doc there's nothing wrong with me (isn' it rather creepy to be told you have beautiful vagina and wonderful ovaries etc) and my mom was like that anyway.
answering small fire's question I'm 24. I feel about 18. the only thing that keeps me from having really bad birthdday crises is thinking about the wonderful experiences i've had each year. I'm like good wine: the older I get, the better I become.
I wish I could talk about my jewellery, but I'd need to post pics. I can only say I love silver.
i guess that's about it.
Now...

by the way... The team I support is PAOK. If you come across it anytime, send good vibes!

Sorry. Had to. All apologies. Sorry... [i]Ow![/i]
I thought sic meant this is the way it was originally written, with the mistakes or whatever included.
There is hope, but not for us.
Jane, [i]sic[/i] means "thus" in Latin. It is often used nowadays to indicate 'this is the way it was written'.
Also useful is [i]Stet[/i] which means 'leave this the way I've written it.'

Tuffy, you naughty daddy... Really.
I have no pics or way to post them now (i'm talking about the jewellery), and no intention (or pics) for the ...um... other jewels.
I'll try to share the beauty of my rings when I get back to Greece.

I'm sorry. I thought you were implying something about jewelry and genetalia... My bad.
loops, thank you for your girly manifesto. my friend wears "wish" all the time, and i think it smells great. that cinnamon-vanilla body water stuff sounds great, although i'm not a fan of food scents in general. do they have bath and bodyworks in europe? if so, you should try warm vanilla sugar.
p.s. if my gyno ever told me i had a beautiful vagina, i'd probably kick her in the face.
you have not felt pain until you have hd your testicles kicked, punched or squeezed as hard as possible[/url]
you are not seriously comparing getting hit in the nuts with passing something the size of a watermelon through your pelvis, are you? i don't think there's any comparison. no one gives you a shot of painkiller *in your spinal chord* to ease the pain of a kick to the nuts. i don't think they're even remotely in the same league. especially when you throw in episiotomies...*shudder*
[SIZE=1][QUOTE=ehquestionmark]Wow. This little thread got CRAZY. People telling me to abuse my girlfriend, people showing an alarming lack of respect for women as a whole, people questioning my masculinity in some kind of bizarre machoistic pissing-contest. Hell, I even got called stuffy. [/QUOTE]

now the baby may n be as comparable. but you were oging on about pms! and believe me, getting hit in the balls feels a lot worse than pms.
as for the baby thing, maybe it is comparable cause you cant get pain killers for your nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!! they are so frggin vulnerable its not even funny
and they are so not the size of a watermellon
yeah but with periods you get the pain once a month, every month, for the majority of your life span guaranteed. you pretty much can't avoid it. but avoiding being kicked in the nuts is simple: don't be an arsehole.
[this wasn't directed at you knox sorry honey *hug*]
its ok ruby, sad thing is the pain in my nuts have been deliverred to by my best friends lol
Given the choice of birthing a baby and being kicked in the nuts, I think that I would probably take the shot to the testes. Most men, frankly, wouldn't have the fortitude.
i fucked all yer moms. hows that for girl talk?
you are wicked bad-ass, never. i think i'll go cry now.
Wow, that was deep, never. My mom is almost as gorgeous as I am so I'm sure it was a fantabulous experience for you.
Let's do more girl talk, eyebrow waxing. An indulgence, torture, or something you just "never" ha ha ha do.
Me, it's an indulgence. I don't think I'd even get it done if the place wasn't right next to my hairdresser's. But I'm such a clod that I can't tweeze anything to make them match, I learned that lesson well. Actually I'm kind of addicted to that pain as the hair is ripped right out by the roots. Kinda reminds you you're alive.
We must suffer to be beautiful...

My mommy calls me her special handsome boy.
Back on subject (
), it's difficult to say whether I'd take a shot to the nuts or give birth. I wouldn't say that a shot to the nuts is solely pain. It's a lot more than that. It's extreme discomfort. You get that nasty I'm-gonna-throw-up feeling. I'm not saying that this is worse than childbirth by any means, but it seems to me that the birthgiving is just pain. Excruciating, endless, shoot-me-now pain. I'd be interested in seeing what it's like. I've heard that passing a kidney stone is something like that, but I'd want something more productive than a pebble sized petrified turd. If I'm gonna go through that kind of pain, I want a baby, dammit.
thats a good solution. just get pregnant every month then go have an abortion. that you be a great way to avoid pms
