Yeah that's kind of true. Even though I'm skinny, a lot of the time after I eat I get a food baby and I almost look slightly pregnant from the side... and tiny boobs
Everything is made for flat chested women! Even though the average cup size is not small. Infuriating.
In every commercial I saw the legs are already smooth, and mine after winter look like my brothers' (thick black gorilla fur)
So do I but this is absolutely relatable for me despite shaving often because of thick hair - honestly if I leave it for a week I would be in Gorilla mode for sure!!

I have one in my shower but it's not a special razor - it's being blonde and having very little leg hair. The downside is being super pale to an almost 'glow in the dark' level.
Load More Replies...Exactly! In commercials, it's like why are you shaving a hairless leg?!
I only use one type of soapy product in the shower, and that’s SHAMPOO. I have some that’s diluted in the bottle for washing my hair (lathers more easily that way), and some in a large spray bottle that’s diluted for other uses that require soap (it’s all the same active ingredients as body wash and hand soap). I clean my body w/ the spray bottle stuff, and I also use it to shave. Nice and SLIPPERY...no grabby razor. Of course, you could always just wet your legs and use a tiny dab of shampoo to rub onto your legs.
why do they shave up instead of down in every razor commercial? if you shave up you cut the $h!+ out of your leg
Because if you shave up it cuts against the hair instead of with it

That's just how they are. It's best for cradling and feeding a baby, not fashion.
Comfort is much more important. Sexy ones are just for special occasions, and even then not necessary: If someone is going to see them, they're either going to get covered again or they won't stay on for very long anyway and if there is someone who is going to see you in them on regular basis, they're not going to care if they're comfortable or sexy panties.
My period pimples aren't done until they've also colonized my back and shoulders.
Yes, everywhere, even in food. One time I suddenly started coughing in the middle of the night. I couldn't stop because something was scratching my airways. It took me very long and it was a torture but I finally managed to cough it out and it turned out I had breathed in a cat hair in my sleep.
What is the fear of not having enough clean underwear away from home? At home it's NBD if I'm 1 pair from extinction, but I need 3 pairs a day for a weekend trip.
Never had anyone ask me this in my entire life while I was purchasing clothing. When I buy gum at a gas station- every time.
i don't get this. she's obsessed with rubber stamps?
Just wondering.. does a comic exist on Bored Panda that is NOT brutally honest?
Anyone else here have a random stuffed animal to cuddle with at night? Also, as a 16y/o girl, when I go to the store to but feminine products, I’ll avoid teenage boys and men who appear to be over 60 because the teenage boy is obvious, but the older men are likely to try to make small talk while scanning your items. Men in their 20-40s are more likely to just scan it and be done, they are there for the job. Most females will see the stuff and not bat an eyelid so I prefer them, if not females, the middle-ages mature but only there for the money men, or even the self-checkout if it doesn’t read what the product is.
I can relate to most of these - fortunately, as one gets older, there are many (problems) that go away. Something to look forward to :-)
I think it's like Medusa: one problem goes away to make room for two more problems #beardedlady #hotflashes
Load More Replies...As a woman, I'm getting sick of seeing these here all the time. Either it's the woes of being a woman or the woes of being a mom, human or pet. How about a thread of comics CELEBRATING something in life for a change? Surely there's SOMETHING about being a woman we can get happy about?
