I've been trying to think if there's one thing I dislike about being a woman, and I don't mind much. I don't mind about having to sit to pee and I have never really thought about vaginal odors before--it just goes with the territory. I guess if I had to choose one thing, it would be breasts. When I was younger, they were smaller and not a problem when I exercised. Now, after two kids and a bit of weight gain, they are much larger, and it is hard to just spontaneously run--they really jounce around and it can hurt (I feel like I'm handicapped!). If I want to go for a run, I have to plan in advance and use a jog-bra, etc. There's just no comfortable way to make a sprint for the bus or some other unplanned for run. I wonder if I lost more weight, would my breasts also go back to "normal" size (what I consider normal for me)?

You don't sound odd at all. I HATE, HATE, HATE bras. I honestly think they give me 50% of my headaches. I hardly ever wear one at home, but I have large breasts, so I feel compelled by social norms to wear one in public...now that you mention it, I'm off to take my bra off!

Yeah men don't know how good they have it. Thy don't have to wear uncomfortable underwires to hold them things up after having kids. They don't have to worry about sitting on a public toilet to pee. They don't have to worry about vaginal odor as mentioned by Rhap. No periods and wearing tampons and diaper size pads or menopause. No painful childbirth. But one thing they do have to put up with though is when we complain about all of the above

The thing I hate most about being a woman is being hit on by a man. Most of the time they respond to the word "no".

I remember my mom telling me when I was 5, (with 5 older brothers), I used to get so upset that I couldn't stand at toilet n pee successfully like my brothers could....lol And, yes. I think the body odors change with age. And as Lynn previously mentioned, yogurt helps a great deal with the vaginal health. Shangrala

Probably really pushing the limits of TMI so you will have to you click on "quote" to view this.
My BF used to chant, "Smells like fish, make it my dish. Smells like cologne, leave it alone".

I love everything about being a woman except for menstruation...tampons, napkins, cramps, and the "crazy-making" PMS every month! I used to be self-conscious and embarrassed about my monthlies until the men in my life communicated that it didn't bother them in any way...but what a life-long hassle for us to deal with!
And as far as how we are built down there, I think most men/women(depending on one's orientation) love the way we look, feel, and are scented...even if not perfect. I think men have it so much worse. I would not want to deal with surprise protrusions in my pants any time "it" feels, thinks, sees, and hears whatever it fancies! Their "thing's" definitely got a mind of its own...making for some awkward situations!

I guess what I do not like is some men not taking no for an answer and then they get mad when you protect yourself from their assault.

Morningcalm..."And as far as how we are built down there, I think most men/women(depending on one's orientation) love the way we look, feel, and are scented...even if not perfect."
I so agree with you!! My husband told me he would rather me smell like me than a strawberry douche (after I was insecure about that) he loves my unique scent! __________________ [SIGPIC[/SIGPIC] Susan

I'm reminded of a joke I found very funny as an adolescent. Adam and Eve had just discovered sex, but they wondered what to do about the discomfort of being sticky afterward. In his nightly discussion with God, he brought up the problem.
While God was thinking it over, He suddenly noticed Adam was alone. "Where is Eve?" "She's at the river, washing herself," answered Adam. "Oh, no!" God complained. "Now all the fish are going to smell like that!" |

Yes, after sex odors....yuck. I know what you mean. What helps me is peeing after sex. For some reason, unknown, it cleans it out...as gross as that sounds. It makes it to where you won't have wet underwear too.

Someone mentioned hating bras- I like them; especially the pretty, sexy ones. I think it's one of the "perks"
 of being a woman. I could never be a guy!

I think someone brought this up too, but I find food has a huge thing to do with how your vagina smells and your skin too. Guys has this same issue with their sperm smell.
Plus if you eat fish, it is probably going to smell like fish down there, for women and men. Have you ever eaten asparagus and smelled that when you pee? LOL
