The best thing about being a woman
Is the prerogative to have a little fun and…
Oh-oh-oh, go totally crazy
Forget I’m a lady
Men’s shirts, short skirts
Oh-oh-oh, really go wild
Yeah, doin’ it in styleHARRYSTYLESANDSHANIATWAINatCOACHELLA2022

what makes you beautiful remains the biggest bop of all the bops no other song compares
If Enzo Scanno has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Enzo Scanno has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Enzo Scanno has only one fan then that is me. If Enzo Scanno has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Enzo Scanno, then I am against the world.
Lions Sync When They Ovulate—But People Don’t
Kristin Hugo
The African big cats give birth around the same time so that they can take care of each other’s cubs.
While researching lionsinZambia, biologist Thandiwe Mweetwa noticed that lionesses within a pride will all have cubs around the same time.
When she looked into it further, Mweetwa learned lionesses sync their fertility cycles so that they can all raise their young together.
There’s a reason for that. “Synchronized estrus is thought to increase reproductive success in the pride,” says Mweetwa, a National Geographic emerging explorer and Big Cats Initiative grantee. Having cubs at the same time means that mother lions can rely on each other to nurse, babysit, and protect the youngsters.
This safety in numbers also allows more lions to survive to adulthood. Predation is a great threat to small, vulnerable babies in any species, but if all babies are born at the same time, there are only so many that predators can eat.
If young are born at different times throughout the year, predators could use them as a steady source of food.
Even so, many still die: More than half of all African lion cubs don’t make it past their first year. They’re at risk from predation, disease, abandonment, starvation, and being killed by an outside male.
When male lions strike out on their own, they will challenge another male for control of his harem. If the interloper succeeds, he’ll kill all the cubs, which brings the females into estrus, or heat, again. (See “Why Do Animals Sometimes Kill Their Babies?”)
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
Though many other animals come into heat at the same time, fewer species go into heat when their young die. Instead, most go into heat seasonally, including most wild species of hooved mammals, which only give birth in the spring. Male deer testosterone peaks in fall, during the “rut,” when they will compete for and mate with females. Does are pregnant during the winter and give birth around May and June, when warmer weather helps fawns survive.
If lions had periods, lionesses within a pride might get them at roughly the same time. But lions don’t menstruate: The only mammals that menstruate overtly the way that humans do are some other primates and a few species of bats and rodents.
A persistent myth is that people living in close proximity—such as several women sharing a dorm in college—synchronize their estrus cycles, which is evidenced by having periods around the same time. This idea, which caught on due to research by psychologist Martha McClintock in 1971, has been discredited in several studies since.
In 2006, Zhengwei Yang and Jeffrey C. Schank found the chance that a woman would share a cycle with someone living with her is about as likely as sharing it with anyone else. (Read “The Scientist Who Said Periods Weren’t a Big Deal.”)
Because women have slightly different menstrual cycles, there is a good chance that, if two women spend enough time together, they will eventually match cycles.
“It’s just a mathematical property of irregular rhythms, and rhythms of different lengths,” says Schank. He adds that it’s human nature to notice when things match, but not to notice when they don’t match.
Since menstruation also wastes nutrients and can attract predators, with all the other problems that lion cubs face it’s lucky that at least lionesses don’t have periods.

I realize this is a take that might annoy some folks, if anyone relates, but it bothers me how often I see young/youngish adulthood dialogue that’s constantly like, “How am I an adult? I’m a child, right? I’m a child. I can’t do these things, I can’t be an adult.” Everyone’s treating themselves as though they can’t be an adult and as if they can’t do the basics of what it means to live adult life.
Now. It’s understandable to take time to process the transition to adulthood. It’s understandable to be confused, and it’s understandable to have adjustments or daunting moments. Goodness knows, we all need to process. It’s understandable if you didn’t get good prep before you were thrown out into the world and feel unequipped. It’s understandable that, culturally, a lot of traditional adult milestones have been delayed or disappearing, and ergo it’s harder to perceive yourself as an adult. And it’s understandable if you’re dealing with neurodivergence or disability or other hold-ups that might make a life transition harder.
But I’m looking at this from the perspective of seeing some circles of folks around me, 10+ years after reaching adulthood and nearly as long since having moved out, talking about themselves like this. There’s a point where, if your only conversations are, year after year after year, “How am I an adult? I’m a child, right?” then you’re diminishing yourself. You’re not helping yourself by your language and how you’re treating yourself. You’re infantilizing yourself (for lack of a better word). You’re limiting yourself. That’s not good. You can’t live forever in a mindset that believes you’re incapable of doing menial tasks of everyday adult life. You have to treat yourself as an agent capable of handling, learning, adjusting to, and regularly doing tasks. At some point, you have to do things like those regular phone calls and make it your norm. These need to become your uneventful, un-noteworthy norm.
You have to accept you can grow to be capable rather than constantly belittle yourself as incapable.
For the record, this isn’t a soft sentimental post. I spoke in words that wouldn’t be rejected and which show I understand context, but I was commenting out of well-meaning frustration. I want this to be a non-rude but still firm call to action. Do something for yourself. YOU, yes you. You have to. I know it might be hard. But you have to find your routes and progress. Learn to speak right by yourself and learn to act on your capabilities you do have.

My period is a little later than it normally is and I’m worried it’s gonna happen on the day my Strahd game continues as some blood sacrifice to Strahd.

Giving people ideas is one thing.
Telling people their writing is wrong or they’re doing it poorly is another.
Don’t do that. Encourage others, don’t tear them down. Give them IDEAS on what you think could enhance their writing, but don’t tear them down and make them feel like they’re not writing their story well.
You have no right, as the reader, to tell the writer how to write their story. Bouncing ideas is cool; telling them they’re doing it wrong is not.
