So much in here...I think you can be fairly sure you will burn and rave at close of day, Therra. I will take you up on your twitter/facebook dare when I can find my reading glasses. I belong to a FB book for women who have had or are considering colcopleisis, which is a procedure for women with serious pelvic floor prolapse. It basically consists of sowing up most of the vagina to hold all our falling bits inside, and is fairly radical but without any of the longterm complications of trying to patch things up (think mesh and scar tissue). What made me ANGRY was an article from a respected medical journal about colcopleisis, saying that it was suitable for frail elderly women who are no longer sexually active. My comment was "I so wish that They, whoever They are, would wake up to there being the possibility of sexual activity without PiV. It's sooo...ignorant. "Frail", "sexually inactive", even "elderly" are all descriptions I reject (I'm 63), yet I am seriously considering colpocleisis. Education is called for." I got my motorcycle license two years ago today, I practise archery and blacksmithing and am going to get a hunting license and I saw the Clash, the Buzzcocks and Joy Division in the 1970's. I have a partner who is six years younger than me and a FWB who is 35. I am not mutton dressed up as lamb, I am mutton dressed up as mutton and very, very tasty.
I love you dearly. The humor and grace you bring to just about everything astounds and sometimes saves me. I spent the night of my 60th birthday doing a night snorkel on Roatan. I wanted to celebrate rather than mourn. That was 2 months before Covid really hit and I have been grounded ever since. I do not feel "old" mentally or emotionally but feel ancient physically. So many of my friends never made it to 50, much less 60, that I try to practice gratitude for being a little old lady. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
