Normally, I enjoy reading most of the posts put up on rolfrazzi.com and icanhascheezburger.com, however today not so much...
The caption on the photo already rubbed me the wrong way...but the comments made me even more irate. Only two of the commenters (as of 12:48 EST) indicated that there might be something wrong with the equation our culture seems to live by: women+sexuality=slut . Apparently women aren't allowed to be sexual entities without asking to be disrespected. And apparently we're also not allowed to show natural parts of our bodies, like breasts, hips, what have you, without it being sexual.

Yeah, that's pretty dumb. Scrubs did it better and (in my view but probably not yours) better.
Dr. Miller: Why are you smiling?
Dr. Cox: Oh, I don't know, I guess I'm just glad you wound up in my camp.
Dr. Miller: Yeah, I'm an adult, I don't actually go to camp. Listen, if Dr. Kelso had asked me to go somewhere that I thought was actually good for my career, I'd be gone so fast you'd be left here staring at an imaginary woman's chest while she was trying to make a point.
Dr. Cox: I'm sorry, you're right, it's my fault. That dress just screams "respect me as a doctor."
I agree, I felt the same way about this post, and coming just the day after a crack about Madonna's "flappy old ladies arms". I find it sad how one's respectability is often based on the size and shape of one's body...
That's interesting, we'll definitely be looking into this more to see exactly what new evidence came to light that led to this conclusion.Gotta say though, we think it's a little problematic to say that it will be "all good" if we can just get the silly 'Gardasil will make girls slutty' crowd to pipe down. Women should be able to raise bedroom furniture questions and concerns about a relatively new vaccine without being labeled as right-wing conspiracy theorists.
FSD can be age-related; it is estimated that 40-50% of adult women have at least one or more manifestations of sexual dysfunction. These disorders may or may not have a negative effect of the quality of life or the health of the woman, but when they cause enough personal distress she will seek treatment. Unfortunately, most women with FSD web design do not seek treatment although there are treatments and options that can help.Carol was an outgoing 57-year-old woman whose husband Bob was being treated for ED. As we worked through the process about ED with Bob and Carol, Carol asked, "What about me?" Carol domain names admitted that one of the reasons she was "okay" with Bob's ED and their relationship without sexual intimacy was that she had pain with intercourse (dyspareunia). She had never discussed this with Bob. Carol admitted that she was hesitant about Bob receiving treatment for ED because of the pain she experienced with sex. She thought it was a natural part of aging and something she would just live with, but living without the pain meant living without sex even though she still desired sexual intimacy. Carol knew that if Bob's ED dsl was successfully treated, sexual intimacy would resume and she would experience the pain again. She knew she needed help.
