what's happening to our borad TMI

If you ever see blood when you're not on the bowl, then please go see someone.

I'm Mr. See The Doctor If A Thought Just Crossed My Mind so don't even worry about me

Talking about Mr. J355 celebrating passover with his boxer shorts.

tmi for tmi

Yah i think given the circs pp is the man who knows whats what when it comes to this topic. Get it checked!

Idk if the entreaties are directed to me but I am going to the doc, but no rush bc I saw a doc years ago who said it was a weak spot from the lancing and to just be careful. But I'm hoping for a better prognosis.

Like my daddy said, don't ever trust anything that bleeds for more than three days and doesn't die.

I never thought that saying would apply to me....

Dear Penthouse Forum,

I never thought the saying would apply to me, but....

Ho-hum. Ovulating and thinking fondly of extremely masculine qualities, hands like slabs of meat, extreme un-prettiness, the more beat-up looking the better. Really an ideal solution is probably to date two entirely different people at different times of the month. During the other 3 weeks I can appreciate delicate features, cheekbones, long tapered elegant hands, etc, but not right now.

How's that for TMI?

I used to be all for the meat slabs all month long, now I can appreciate a range of features. I should try tracking my preferences.

I wish I were going ton a hardcore show and not on a date with someone smart and probably very nice. Problems, eh??

mmm big hands :D

Take your date to the hardcore show, sink or swim buddy

It would hardly be fair to do that and then eye the tattooed train-wrecks the whole time. No, no, this is just a sensible meet-up over beers.

I appreciate your candid thoughts

Ow, sorry. It's the TMI thread!

I think he was being serious?

I was!

I didn't realize ovulation changed a girl's taste in men. (Certainly fills in some blanks for me.)

I mean, I am a dude so I don't know if I can pin it down to a particular time of the season but different things appeal differently for sure

It defs makes me a lot more boy crazy.

Well, my taste doesn't run to "pretty" at the best of times, but it's even more pronounced today.

Ovulation feels like wildcat juice running through your veins. Not sure it's taste so much as appetite.

There, I said it.

Yeah I think lusty thoughts about almost anyone, it's a good sign I better buy tampons.

Ovulation makes ladies horny so that they're more likely to fuck and produce babby. Basically. In biological terms, I mean.

hungry4baby

all the fucking, no babby = best of both worlds

hey, I came up with an actual tmi idea

Did you know that guys can sometimes detect ovulation? Happens more often when you're in a relationship, but yeah

how? (dare I ask)

pheromones? idk, you just know

I don't notice a difference personally but I am generally clueless about these things. Like, until last year I didn't put 2 + 2 together and realize that I sometimes get emo during pre-menstrual times.

They've done studies and stuff where women have been shown to wear certain clothes (ie. skimpier) and do other subconscious things to attract male partners around the time that they ovulate.

I don't notice the ovulation = horny thing in myself, I mean. It could very well be true but it's definitely not markedly different from how I feel the rest of the month.

in the last year I have DEF noticed the horny thing way more

and the emo thing a lot more too, though I tend to get emo during rather than before

IDK it's been a lot more pronounced since I quit taking mental health meds and quit taking birth control (I have an RX for birth control optimistically tacked to my corkboard but no need to fill it).

do other subconscious things to attract male partners around the time that they ovulate.

What about biting them in public, does that count?

However please note that humans are some of the only mammals who also want to have sex outside of their ovulation period, which is to say that we want to do it not only to make babby.

Well, I haven't been on hormonal birth control in around 10 years or so. I do take an SNRI so maybe that has somethign to do with it? IDK.

IDK either, there's got to be hundreds of factors involved.

lol Laurel - you should try it and report back! ;)

I sometimes wonder if other species in the animal kingdom have made the sex=babies connection, or if they just do what feels good and have no idea of the ramifications

SSRIs and SNRIs are well known to be libido killers for many

Nah I am very sensible actually, and very circumspect. I've never done anything so rash.

x-post - Yeah but that's not an issue for me. It was with Paxil. I swear to got I felt completely and totally numb. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. That's not the case with the one I've been on for the last 10 years at all. Am planning on tapering off it soon as it's mostly out of habit that I take it at this point. It'll be interesting to see what happens when I'm not on it.

Are you a Klingon?

Definitely not saying my experience is universal OR recommending changes in meds for anyone OR trying to stigmatize staying on meds ––– I thought the mental health meds (I was on quite the cocktail) were not doing shit to my libido but about ~6 months after going off them, the sex drive escalated pretty intensely. It was like seeing an old friend I'd forgotten about for years.
