Thank you @naezi for participating in #sex and its "non-sexual relationship": Except Sex essay contest submission: vagina | I masturbate when menstrual cramps allow me to participate in the reader's short comment activity!
That evening, while my mother was sweating like a drizzle of cooking in the kitchen, I quietly walked behind her and said timidly, "Mom, it seems like I'm here..." That, what is that?
"That" has many names:
- Period leave: a day when you take a routine leave, you can skip physical education classes or participate in school labor.
- Auntie: I often come to read you, which is a little annoying. But if she doesn't come to visit for a long time, she will worry about her dissatisfaction with you.
- Best friend: Who is your best friend? ! I actually don't like you very much.
@Naked子In the vagina | I masturbate when menstrual cramps In this submission, I bluntly wrote about the relationship between our girls and menstruation.
You have to toss every twenty-nine days, and you will be uneasy if it is too soon or too late.
I remember when I was a child, I made a calculation: if two to three days a month I am paralyzed due to menstrual pain, I am not in the mood to read, and I cannot go out to exercise, then I will be paralyzed in bed for more than 20 days a year. Crappy! How can this work?
She said in the story that when she learned about menstruation when she was a child, teachers and parents were secretive and would not say it explicitly. Little girls feel ashamed as a result.
Dark red and brownish adolescence, wet and sticky in his underwear, smelled rotten after touching the air for a while. I feel dirty.
Even today, when menstruation can be publicly discussed, Instagram once censored an artist’s photography of menstrual blood , only to withdraw the censorship after protests from the artist and netizens. The taboo on menstrual blood also restricts our understanding and discussion of women's reality.
Because menstruation is not a disease, it's just "disgusting", so women who suffer from menstruation are not recognized, and they need to shut the door and digest pain and discomfort alone. When I was a child, my mother thought that if it wasn't a "real" disease, I couldn't take western medicine for pain relief. I was afraid of becoming addicted to the medicine, so she let me endure it -- pinching the tiger's mouth fiercely until the blood stains were pinched between my thumb and index finger. to cover another pain. (Speaking of which, is the tiger's mouth in Chinese medicine really useful?) I couldn't help but take some proprietary Chinese medicines such as Yuanhu Pain Relief Tablets and Wuji Baifeng Pills. So I always gritted my teeth and never asked for leave. I also took the physical exam for sit-ups while suffering from menstrual pain, and I was very proud of it.
However, I have also had a lot of accidents where I was carried out of the exam room halfway through the exam. The most serious one was when my mother and I ate at an open-air food stall abroad, and I fainted from pain. My mother didn't speak the language, so I compared and drew with the waiter in the restaurant, and finally called an ambulance. At that time, my mother must have been really frightened. I was dizzy but a little happy: Look, Mom, I have endured it, I really hurt, now I can rest.
I was carried on a stretcher and paramedics stimulated my lower back with a sonicator. My stomach was warm and my back was numb, and it took about a quarter of an hour for me to regain my senses.
After recovering so quickly, I felt a little guilty again, wondering if I really needed to make such a fuss to alert the medical staff.
Because of this repression, such a taboo, the love my mother gave me made me feel cold. The "nature" that is often referred to as a mother can't arouse my yearning for maternal love. I only complain that it brings trouble to women; this body that carries maternal functions seems to be just an object that needs to be managed.
When I became an adult, as the taboos were gradually broken, and with more scientific tools, I began to systematically understand my body structure, and gradually I was able to distinguish whether the ovary was in pain or the uterus was in pain; I also understood the current painkillers. Unlike the opiate painkillers of the past, there is no drug addiction problem. When you have menstrual pain, you don't need to rush to take the exam, you don't need to be brave, just rest in the bed.
The muscle relaxation and emotional relaxation brought about by orgasm can indeed temporarily relieve the tension in the uterus. Masturbation is a gentler pain relief method than pinching. It's a pity that masturbation was once a taboo? In the past, gynecologists in Europe needed to treat women's hysteria (now generally considered to be dissatisfaction or dysmenorrhea), and the prescription was to make women orgasm through "massage" - this is an inhumane "medical" secret. Thank goodness we can figure it out ourselves now.
What were the people in the past tinkering with?
At the end of Nueko's article, she had a dream:
I ran towards the taboo , wiped the rose color from his mouth, and in an instant, like asexual reproduction, it quickly spread and occupied every gap.
"Shh! It's your turn to be a ghost."
I watched him fall slowly, a bright flower blooming in his mouth.
Taboo fell.
Now I use the menstrual app on my phone to record the cycle, and I always keep ibuprofen at home. Every few days, I always take pills in advance to relieve pain. Menstrual cups can be worn all day, from morning to night, and taken out at night before bathing. Apart from a swollen lower abdomen, I have not had much discomfort.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
