We all have our weird quirks.

Really? That's awfully rude.

Thank you! Sometimes it's easier to talk to people outside the situation, isn't it? I wish I had been born a man so I didn't have to deal with things, but we're not always dealt the hand we want. I've seen lots of your comments and I admire you and wish I knew you off the internet!

Smash your foot into a wall and try not to jump around and swear. It's not always easy to internalize pain.

Thank you! I find the whole base instinct thing interesting, but there's a big difference between the need to procreate and monthly hormonal changes. It's apples and oranges, since women do have the same physical urges as men.

Men openly ogle women all the time, it's an accepted part of society. What the hell are you even talking about? It's an understood part of relationships that men should be able to look as long as they don't touch. Women are judged as being jealous, controlling bitches if they call a man on openly checking other women out. You're just being silly.
I was simply pointing out that there is a chemical change, starting in the pituitary gland, that changes a person's behavior. I went through a year and a half of chemo that severely impacted my behavior and find the subject both intriguing and very personal. I do apologize if you took offense or I came across as anything other than interested in the subject matter.

I'm going to add that there is scientific evidence that hormonal changes cause a significant shift in mental status. There is an actual change in brain chemistry that directly contributes to that whole raging bitch thing. I'd love someone (men especially) to tell us all how to overcome brain chemistry!

Haha Thank you! It's both an homage to a Stephen King character and a sarcastic reference to the fact that I hate snuggling.

I might be biased, but I truly believe that the reason I got so lucky is because she is the only biological child I'll ever have. I definitely won the jackpot with my one and only.

I do as a matter of fact. I have an amazing little girl who is the love of my life. I wanted more, but am incredibly lucky to have been blessed with an amazing daughter and consider myself indescribably lucky to have her.

I'm 29. How about you?

:-) Thanks. It's still a sensitive subject since I just had the surgery so I'm probably too touchy. Everyone on here is always so great, I need to lighten up! Happy New Year mcdonaldo, thanks for your sweet reply!
