Justin Bartels, Impression.
‘The series focuses on the clothing that women think they should wear, or are told what to wear, to impress someone in a sexual manner. There is a physical mark that is left from these clothes, showing the discomfort women go through.’
This is so striking!
Not to mention the discolouration caused by rubbing from bras.

It is the other way around.. PCOS causes weight gain. Being fat doesn’t give you PCOS.
Thanks for this, I did read somewhere that being obese could cause it - moral of the story is I should stop googling medical conditions!

I’ve been a bit under the weather for a couple of weeks now, I’ve had nausea every time I eat and a bit of pain in my upper abdomen. Yesterday I went home sick and managed to get in to see a doctor (I also have an ear infection - yay me!). I’ve been paranoid that it’s my gall bladder, she checked my stomach for sensitivity which there wasn’t any. She asked me me if I could be pregnant, I didn’t think so but we tested any way (I’m not). I mentioned I don’t get my period anymore, I thought this was a nice effect of the pill!, and she was concerned about this. She also weighed me. She said because I’ve put on weight and my periods haven’t come she wants to test me for polycystic ovaries. I don’t know a lot about this condition but I did tell her that my periods have always been like clock work - every 28 days no issues ever. I don’t get acne and I’m not overly hairy (well I’m brunette so its more obvious! But I’m not hugely hairy). She’s sent me for blood tests to check my hormone levels and have an ultrasound of my abdomen and pelvis. As an aside, the other thing that worried me was she asked me if I get migraines - I get minor ones a couple of times a year where I get a sharp pain then see double. She said I shouldn’t be on the type of pill I am if I get migraines because there’s an increase risk of stroke! Awesome. So now I’m off the pill and waiting for the mega period to arrive.
I digress.. I don’t think I have PCOS but it does worry me because I did a google search and it doesn’t sound like a very nice disorder to have! I’m not a doctor obviously so I don’t know if women necessarily get all those symptoms and if its common to develop it in your 30s. I’m feeling a bit shameful too because I read that being obese and weight gain can cause PCOS. Other fatties might relate to this - the shame of being a fat person and having health problems because clearly you don’t look after yourself enough (said entirely with tongue in cheek). I’m trying to stay positive and focus on the fact that my periods have always been fine and one of the major symptoms is lack of periods. I have had a lot of issues ‘down there’ with other things so to be honest I’ll feel pretty fucking angry at the universe if I have another condition to manage.

People being angry about ~dem gays~ on Target’s Facebook.
I just want to give my two cents on this and tell you a story.
A couple weeks ago, I was hired at Target. I have a job at Target. Not a big deal right?
It is a big deal because i’m a transman.
It doesn’t take a genius to conclude that it’s hard for me, my brothers, and sisters to get a job. There are legal restraints regarding the job and if you don’t pass, it’s hard to be taken seriously at a job interview.
Right on the application, it asks what your preferred name is. It also asks if there is anything that target should know. I put the fact that I am a transman, expecting not to get a call because usually when you put that down, people will throw out the application. I got TWO interviews.
At the interview, they asked me about it. I told them I am on hormones and they told me that they didn’t care. Not in the sense that they don’t emotionally care, but that it didn’t matter. I was male and that’s all that mattered. They also told me that they give sex same couples benefits in states that do not recognize them as a married couple.
At my job orientation, I was not misgendered once. Even my supervisors who weren’t sure of my gender avoided pronoun use, which I found only happens when you’ve had pronoun training. They gave me a name tag with my preferred name and didn’t ask questions. I felt safe and respected, which is huge for a trans* person.
TLDR: Target is amazing not just for the LGB, but also the T. Shop there for the rest of your life.
Another reason I love target!

Its the passive aggressive silent treatment in our house tonight (from me because I’m mature). I made the fatal mistake of not turning on my mental filter and calling his mother incredibly self absorbed. Thou shalt not insult the MIL. Except she actually is and if I was totally honest I’d be able to say the actual problem is knowing that your in-laws don’t really like or accept you hurts. In contrast to my parents who adore my husband, know when his birthday is and a rings him to wish him a happy birthday.

I’m so suspicious of new followers because I’ve had such a spate of thinspo el creepo people that I’m excited when someone nice starts following me.
Welcome new follower!
