Menopause: "It is the fuck you of of life."

It’s hair in places hair has no business being, and itchy bits we can’t scratch in public unless we’re baseball players, and mood swings from “oooh, pretty kitten!” to “I will beat you to death with this cat if I see you put your feet on the coffee table one more fucking time, Ed, I fucking swear to gawd” in the blink of a hair-infested eye.--The Times, They Are A-Changin’. Fuck The Times.

Your Say

Ah, menopause. Nature's way of evening up for boys having to go through puberty.

Fair's fair.

Hmm. Male puberty: when skinny, runty boys start growing taller, get more muscles and hair, get deeper voices, and in general get all those gifts that men are supposed to be gifted with. You're right -- that's a totally awful thing to have happen and it should be paid for by making women, who had nothing to do with it, turn old, ugly, and infertile. (In other words, you didn't really think your little quip through, did you?)

I am dreading it. All the women I know became hirsute screaming harpies. But those were all the women my father dated.
Come to think of it, they were all quite young. Younger than my father.
He must have had that effect on women.
