My ex-gf (RIP) (she's not dead she just doesn't like me now) did not rly wash her hair. Nevermind about that. Historically sex has often been terrifying. We have got it so good you have no idea
CW: S.A., the most horrifying shit i have ever heard, do not read this
Before the October Revolution marital rape and giving birth too frequently with a poor diet followed by manual labor (serfdom was incredibly crushing after serfdom was supposedly abolished too, nobody really got lashes for treating their wife this way) was so common in Russia that women would regularly suffer uterine prolapse. I even heard that midwives would use peeled potatoes to try to physically hold the vaginal canal in for healing after prolapse. We truly have a lot to atone for, collectively. How long do you think until we balance out the suffering that's been caused? How do we know this isn't hell? Maybe it doesn't have to be for too much longer.
If you can't say no on those conditions, do you think telling your husband that he stinks like a fucking dog would stop him? Stalin, where are you? It's so dark in here. We need your help still
Marital rape after giving birth still happens at such a high frequency that labor and delivery nurses have systems for when a male partner forces himself on his birthing partner while theyβre still in hospital.
my fucking eyes
What the fuck. I've never heard this, and I wished it stayed that way
I wish i could say the same, but Iβm a woman who has given birth before.
