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.
It's not that hard we just want clothing that makes sense, have universal sizes that actually mean something and pockets....it's not rocket surgery!!!!!
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.
The average public toilet seat has LESS bacteria than most peoples' countertops...where they prepare food. ...///... Women's bathrooms tend to look like a biker bar on a Sunday morning because of the slobs that pee all over the place.

So THIS is why women's toilets have pee all over the seat sometimes...STOP IT DANG IT. Just use toilet paper to cover the seat, or carry a small bottle of spray sanitizer.
I always wipe the seat if it looks wet. Always. If it's dry, nothing will harm you as every single disease you can gain needs fluids (and warmth, and immediate transfer). Dry the seat, sit your a*s down, and wash your damned hands.
You're not going to catch any germs from toilet seat unless you sit with your private area directly ON the seat!! Just sit down like you do at home. Unless you have an unbandaged open wound on the back of your legs or buttocks.
I hate you hoverers! You make the biggest messes out of anyone and refuse to clean it up. Also people that line the seat and leave it there. Totally inconsiderate people.
This is why my wife invested in female oee funnel. She stands to pee in public places and says she never walks away wet. I can relate I guess.
Almost EVERY SINGLE TIME I walk into a public restroom there is urine all over the seat from people hovering. It has become a ritual that the first thing I do when I go into a public bathroom is use toilet paper to wipe the seat off and then sit down and use the toilet. And these other women should wipe the seat off before they leave, if they’re making a mess. Think about women with physical pain issues who may not be able to hover like you. Think about the mess you’re making. As I saw on a sign a long time ago, “please be sweet and wipe the seat”
I have _heard_ (not certain it's true) that the idea you can catch something nasty off a toilet seat was invented by a doctor(s) so that people who had caught an STI in the only way you _can_ catch an STI but didn't want to admit to indulging in any such activity, could/would get treatment without being 'shamed'.
never understood the hovering IMO just too hard to do especially if you have to go really bad.. the other thing I never understood is walking away from a stall and WAITING for another stall if the toilet wasn't flushed.... for gosh sake just flush the damn toilet and go!
one time at Dave and buster's I was waiting in line doing the potty dance waiting for a toilet to open. then a lady walked out of a stall so I hurriedly ran inside and sat down without looking because I needed to pee so bad and guess what??? I sat down on a toilet seat sprayed with pee it was so disgusting so now I hover in public restrooms (but I dont pee everywhere like that nasty lady).
I'm a hoverer, but I'm always respectful and wipe the seat down afterwards.
Stop it. Wipe the seat and remain seated for the entire performance.

Why doesn't the rest of the world have a*s-gaskets? Every public restroom in California, Arizona and Nevada have them!
They're ridiculous. That paper won't protect you from anything. It just kills trees and leaves a mess. Wipe the seat and plant your a*s.

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?
