Welcome to Litsy!

As a woman diagnosed with hEDS in the last 1.5 years, this book is so validating. It also explains so much of my own experiences with medical professionals. The EDS explains so much of my life history. This book is such an important starting point, this should be required reading for any medical professional to be licensed in the 2020s.

Sir, it‘s called smut. If you were the least bit engaging in any way that was not condescending af, we wouldn‘t need it (probably). Also, since your lot have cut off women from literature for ages now, I think it appropriate to ask who exactly was reading that smut before putting this on record? (*whispers* we all know it was you bro)

I‘m sorry, what? NONE of this makes sense, but men can “seek gratification” (we all know what that means), but women are going to bed early with a short candle after spending hours doing hard labour for zero reason? Or is the short candle a suggestion of alternative treatments only women would know about? Why does this feel like something the Republican Party could spout in a debate any moment now?

Bro has seriously NEVER been “speculumised,” clearly. There is nothing exciting or “erotic” about it. I‘d say let‘s soeculumise these morons and see how the feel, but I have a nagging little feeling they might enjoy it after all. 😏😉 I‘m beginning to think “Unwell Men” might be a great alternate name for this book. They are the weirdos in this tale.

I found my way to this book via a post by the #shesaid group. I have to say, what a wonderful choice! I am so in love with this book already, and it is exactly what I needed right now. It even ties into How to Think Like a Woman with a wonderful discussion of Mary Wollstonecraft‘s horrific death.
