I'm now watching Julia, a sort of light drama series about the life and work of Julia Child. She's played by Sarah Lancashire and her retired diplomat husband is played (baldly alas but I suppose it is natural for the Crane boys) by the lovely David Hyde Pierce.

In the current scene she tells him that while she was out she bumped into a friend (who's a new mother), and he asks, "Was she with that awful baby?"

As if the baby were an unsavoury new friend that he disapproves of.

I enjoyed that.

[sweaterkittensahoy]

got on facebook for the first time in a few weeks and a casual friend was asking if anyone had tips for dealing with perimenopause symptoms.

Like night sweats and hot flashes and mood swings.

Several people had advice on supplements and linked to studies. Love them. Greatness.

A few people went, "Oh, here's a book about how you should embrace menopause!!"

And I need all of those people to get into this bus I'm driving off a cliff.

She was NOT looking for MORAL support. She doesn't wanna wake up in a lake of her own goddamn sweat.

And having just changed my hormone dose AGAIN so I don't 1) wake up in a lake of my own sweat and b) don't have those fucking nightmares I have if my hormones are off-kilter, I'm willing to off myself as the driver of the you-absolute-fucks-bus.

There is a time and a place to promote embracing, accepting, and loving a menopaual self. It is NOT when someone is trying to stem off early symptoms and ASKING FOR HELP WITH THAT.

CN sexism, transphobia

Something that’s been really troubling me is how I feel about menopause with regards to wanting to transition. The concept of going through menopause fills me with absolute dread and I want to make sure I transition before it gets to that point so I don’t go through it. But no one likes or wants to go through menopause, so if someone (very invasively) told me ‘you would rather transition rather than go through something nobody likes or enjoys but that is natural? What makes you so special that you should get to skip it?’ I wouldn’t exactly have an answer. It’s only as I get older that I’ve become aware of the effects of menopause on cis women, the immense stigma on it, and in particular the potential cognitive side effects. I would say that menopause awareness is maybe a few steps ahead of transition awareness but make no mistake, it is not very much ahead! I honestly hate seeing transmasc people on here using that argument that ‘everyone cares about [x] when cis women going through menopause have it’ (e.g. vaginal atrophy)- that argument signifies too much time reading ridiculous things TERFs are saying and not enough listening to what regular people deal with. (You don’t have to compulsively read what TERFs are saying online.) Because menopause is chronically under-cared about in our society and the tides are only just very slowly turning on it.

I don’t think I’m special so I shouldn’t have to go through menopause. But as someone who has always been very detatched from their own body I also don’t have a very good handle on what dysphoria looks like for me, so I could say it’s ok for me to say this because menopause would make me dysphoric, but I can’t honestly say that I know that. In fat activism there is the idea that a thin person saying ‘I support all fat people, including you the listener, but I don’t want to get fat myself’ is still fatphobic. And I agree- people do not need to say stuff like that to their fat friends! But in the same way I could say ‘I support anyone going through the menopause but I don’t want to go through it’. And in that case it’s ok for me to say that because I’m trans, or something? It may not be the same thing, but it still bothers me. They are both about someone’s personal relationship to their body. I’ve always hated the idea that an individual’s transness says Something about society, because we are just individuals, but there are other times when activists use this logic in an approving way. (Maybe the answer is that oppressions aren’t comparable, or something.)

I feel I can see a future for myself as a man, and I never could see a future before. Not because of anything dire, but because I just couldn’t. I thought about everything no more than a few months at a time. It would be so easy to read my words above in an incredibly biased way and use it for a transphobic screed, about how I would transition to avoid misogyny, in just the same way some transphobes insist all trans people are just hyper obsessed with gender roles. But at the same time, why sould they care so much about what I do with my body? I only get one life, we all do, and I’m rapidly approaching middle age and it’s scary to get older and still have so many uncertanties and so few people I can trust with them. But I do know that if I went through menopause just for them, the opinion havers, I would get nothing but misery. There’s no reward for suffering. (And I would say I wouldn’t want to support of people like this, but let’s face it, there would be no support from them.)

brothers I am experiencing hot flashes

[tenrose]

i bet the stuffy nose thing has something to do with histamines the body releases at certain points during its cycle. i follow some people who have MCAS and i've heard them talk about getting flares during their periods. bodies are so weird!

I'm sorry English acronyms aren't my thing, MCAS?

I've read that it could be possibly be because one of the molecules our bodies release to fight off disease is also used to get rid of the uterine tissue. But it's only a hypothesis because that's another ✨ mysterious ✨ thing about menstruation 🙄

Edit: I search the MCAS thing and I found something about planes and I doubt it's the right acronym 🤣
