    Keep it limited to makeup and fashion, I guess, unless you want to be brigaded!

    We should make all post titles pertain to makeup and fashion so the men won’t even bother clicking. (Not a serious suggestion but it probably would work!)

    Seriously though: I feel you on this. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for some men to just leave women in peace, and it’s exhausting. Our mods do a great job but the flood of rude, unwanted men seems never-ending.

    I don’t get it. I’d never go into a men-only space and have the hubris to think they need to hear my opinion. It’s men-only for a reason! Maybe they have women brigading their communities, but I sincerely doubt it’s comparable to what we see.

    (To any men lurking who are respecting the community’s rules, thank you. We appreciate your courtesy!)

    Yesterday my husband and I had dental appointments. We moved last year but wanted to keep our dentist since we both like him so much, but we’re much farther away now and it took us about an hour to get there.

    When we walked in the receptionist told us we came a day early. 🤦🏻‍♀️

    You guys, when we got back to our car, I just broke down crying. I never used to make mistakes like this - I’m normally so organized and on top of things - but my brain fog has gotten so bad with peri. It’s so embarrassing. My hubby comforted me, said it was OK and told me not to be so hard on myself, but I felt really awful about wasting his day off. And I just feel like an idiot all the time.

    Shit like this keeps happening. The other day I was microwaving something, only to realize that I forgot to put the food in the stupid microwave. I stood in front of the microwave and watched it run and even though I could see inside, it just didn’t register that I hadn’t put anything in there. I keep misplacing things or stopping in mid-sentence because my train of thought disappeared. I keep forgetting to finish tasks.

    I have a GYN appointment in a few weeks to talk about HRT because I can’t go on like this.

    I think I just needed to vent, thanks for reading.
