Yuck. I do wonder why we've got nerves in most of there at ALL. I suspect their major contribution to evolution is that over the millenia, women of childbearing age have disemboweled a few idiots who stepped over the line during The Time We Are Not Doormats. Oh wait. Removing idiots from the gene pool does sort of answer my question.
WINE! Deep dark red wine. No wait. Chocolate limoncello. If you drink alcohol and if you like dark chocolate you MUST some day taste this thing. I think it might not be available in the States, but it is so good I'd consider importing it all by my ownself.
I've still got Jake (http://www.jakesfault.com/); he's a shiraz. and i've got something called "Oops! (http://www.oopswines.com/flash/home.html)" and says right on the label that it's a "cheeky little red". would either of those work? (is it wrong to pick my wines based solely on the label or the name?)
Both sound fabulous. If wine makers didn't want us to pick based on the label or the name they wouldn't spend so much effort on their labels and names! Of course, sometimes that means we wind up with something we don't like the taste of. Oh well. There's always another wine to taste later.
Limoncello is a bright yellow, sweet, very-lemony liqueur that is all over the place in Italy. Exactly once I saw a variant that was thick and nearly black... it was probably about half DARK CHOCOLATE and half limoncello liqueur. I promptly bought the bottle (14 euros for 750ml, a STEAL for stuff this tasty) and three of us got very blasted one night. I kept the label but it's at home; I'll write more after I go look at it.
I can just see all us sitting there waiting for our oil to be changed, flat chested and non menstruating, and with uni-brows cuz I sure the hell wouldn't be plucking them bitches any longer. And a bikini line like a bearskin rug.
Weirdly, it has always been the female gyn's who have said that to me. My male gyn seems to just take me at my word on stuff, presumably since he CAN'T just assume we all work like he does :)
Fortunately for me, I've never had anyone say it to me. Phew!
It seems to be understood these days (at least by several docs I've seen) that women vary widely in terms of how much sensitivity there is in various spots. Maybe as a new generation of physicians comes in, that sort of comment will be a thing of the past.

If there was something like a mammogram for guys, that test would be redesigned in a second...
