Topic: How do you feel about freebleeding?

> Us menstruators have come a long way from belted cloth diapers. We have different devices and different sizes and shapes and materials of those devices and they are relatively cheap and acessible. We have options--hell, we have access and education. Let’s take a second and appreciate that.
> Now let’s move on. I wanna take another second, but this time to recognize that with options and access and education comes a heightened expectation of controlling our periods. Bleeding can now be taken care of with ease and leave no trace, no excuses.
> But what if I wanna leave a trace?
> Okay, so I love my DivaCup and the occasional cloth pad and appreciate books like Cycling: A Guide to Menstruation and websites like EcoMenses for educating me and keeping me comfortable during menstruation. But, I do feel expected of. Like I have to take care of my period so I can be a functional member of society.
> So enter the idea of “free bleeding.” More of a mindset than it is an action, the idea is, as this blog title gives away, letting ourselves bleed. No judgement, no worries about messiness or cleanliness. Just letting it happen.
> This might look different for different menstruators. We are always, technically, “letting” ourselves bleed. There are no menstrual plugs (thank god). But how often do we take a second, or a few, or a whole menstrual cycle, to mentally let our body do it’s thing. And appreciate it for what it does.
> Here’s an assignment: Get comfortable, wear something you don’t mind bleeding in (heck, this might even include a tampon! remember, this is about you and what’s comfortable for you) or lay on your bed naked with sheets you don’t mind bleeding on, and focus your thoughts on letting yourself bleed. | Poll option | Votes | Percentage | Graph |

Those that tie babies down and needlessly tear the flesh of their penises cannot be called civilized. I'd say it's worse than baby rape, as the anus will likely heal itself, whereas the foreskin cannot. That's right. Circumcision is worse than rape. Why do we do it? Because the face cream industry commands us to do it, so Oprah and her rich fucking friends can wipe anti-agimg cream on their faces, cream that is made from baby foreskins.

It was started for Americans by the Seventh-day Adventists to prevent boys from masturbating. Then it was perpetuated by the medical industry as facial cream research proved to be quite profitable, especially with all the foreskins people were literally willing to just throw away.

People with foreskins tend to have more sex, and since HPV is an STD (one that really only affects women) it makes sense that they're more likely to have it. Look at the prudish Americans, Jes and Muslims and look at the Europeans, Africans and East Asians.

You should concentrate on not being fat before you concern yourself with your cock, it's not like you are using it. It's not like not having foreskin is preventing you from getting pussy, your tits are doing that.
