Body wranglers at work: Inside the global trade in human corpses
one in eight women
yet news to the medical profession
yes I'm being cynical but it is AMAZING what the medical profession has not explored much when it comes to women's lives.
take hot flashes for example...
they are not even sure what causes them, the mechanism
for many women they interrupt sleep numerous times per night. In the summer without central AC they can be miserable.
there is Viagra so men can get it up
hard to believe if men had hot flashes or this kind of problem at the high rate women do they would know so little.
But you have it ALL.
never mind what men did for you in the past - we've decided not to make you any more favors, promises, aids, drugs, of basically anything that is of comfort to you.
maybe a woman should do this, huh.
will one ?
I don't know but men have a pretty good track record of MAKING stuff to make women's lives better.
So WHAT exactly have women done for men other than wage war against them ofor the last twenty or even fifty years ?
Nil is my submission - you've done NOTHING for men, and it's all about you having it ALL - including your PRECIOUS hot flashes - they're officially YOURS.
booo -fing - who.
Men are done with women's complaints. Do it yourself.
Wild P. We women have it all? That's what you just posted, right? All that we women have is something you men can't do without, right? That's your problem wild, you must be a control freak. Guess what, try that control freak manure with me, you will have a choice, leave or take a 9mm round in your junk. It's your choice slick.
You probably are a tea bagging GOPer, no birth control, no abortions to save a women's life, etc etc. Do us all a favor, I know it's an impossible act, physical and it's also immoral, but F yourself.
Women have been busy doing more than their fair share of child-rearing and home maintenance, in case you couldn't figure that out. Done nothing for men, ha! Wow.
Back to incontinence suffered by women whether they have children or not ... that's not necessarily the defining cause if my experience is any indication. I've had children and, at 62, never had incontinence until I got a job requiring that I sit in front of a computer eight hours a day. I developed incontinence within a month. When I was moved to another position temporarily, one that required me to be on my feet much of the day, the incontinence went away in two or three weeks. When I went back to my original (sitting) job, the incontinence returned. Now with retirement and more activity/exercise, it's gone again.
One of the reasons that so little is known about womens health is that the government forbade any research or experimentation on women in child bearing years. The restrictions have been lifted but compared to decades of research and trial for mens health and issues the medical community is just scratching the surface of how different womens bodies react. It is going to be a long time, decades perhaps, for women to receive medical care comparable to the level of care men now have. In the meantime women will continue to be treated with protocols developed for men, sometimes it works- sometimes not.
BTW Wild P: get some help dude.
Well paramed, I agree wild P needs help. But he is the type that won't get help, hates everyone except himself, and thinks he knows it all. There are plenty of men out there that are just like them. The sooner they can be culled and marginlized, the better for everyone.
