Women in Texas have literally seen their rights to their own body stripped away by state level politicians supported by the 5th circuit and further bolstered by SCOTUS.
So, I do brush my teeth at least daily (I shoot for twice, but I'm not going to pretend that always happens), and I've recently started flossing once daily (recently as in, it was my New Years resolution).
I've only had cavities twice in my life - once when I spent 2 years living in Okinawa, and once when I got back from a deployment where we were advised to only drink bottled water.
No other adjustments to my routine. The only thing I can chalk it up to is the lack of fluoride in both instances. And like I said, I'm not someone who takes immaculate care of my teeth.
Edit: Purely anecdotal experience, obviously, I just really couldn't come up with an alternative answer 🤷♀️
Bro, honestly, you shouldn't let a few people arguing about a meme online stop you from respecting the women who are actually in your life.
Door holding for the people behind you is respectful no matter if they're a man or a woman. I think most people hold the door if they're paying attention.
But stopping a conversation from going off the rails in a sexist/derogatory manner? Bruh you could be the difference in one woman's life from her feeling the full relatability to this meme.
Are you really mad that someone likes to spend time on a website that revolves around engagement/discussion on posted topics and then they...have the audacity to...engage on it?!?! Bruh.
Worse than that. They just don't care. My mother is a HUGE Conservative, and she had an abortion back in the 80s right before she got pregnant with me. When I confronted her about it, she said: "Well, there are more options more widely available for women who want to avoid pregnancy today than there were back then."
And I asked about women who work pay check to pay check and can't really afford a $50 OTC Plan B pill whenever they want to have sex, and she said "Well, they better afford it. It's cheaper than going to get an abortion even where it is legal!" 😮💨
Bruh, last night I cleared out my VMs after posting this, and I felt so accomplished.
And then this morning on my way into work, someone called and I ignored it because I was driving. And that fucking VM notification is back 😭 Not even a full 24 hours guilt free.
"Wait, I had to work and save and still not be able to afford an education?!?! I sHoUlD hAvE jUsT hElD uP a CoNvEnIeNcE sToRe."
I agree with you, 100%, FWIW. I'm just imagining the asinine conversations we're going to have to have with people who don't understand that the world doesn't revolve around them and they're not the main character.

It quite literally does, affect me.
