Especially if it's the first few days of it! That's when you have to grab clean underwear fast and sprint to the bathroom before your period causes the Red Wedding from Game of Thrones to appear. Girl, I know exactly what you mean!
Oh, mine started yesterday. My roommate hears the “Noooo!” As I run to the bathroom, then, “Dammit…” he only asks where I keep the pads at this point, thank goodness. A trick for saving the undies: cool running water, Ivory brand soap. Or unseasoned meat tenderizer. It seriously works! I swear by it. The Ivory soap has rescued many undies and pajama pants!… and sheets
A few weeks ago I was shopping when a VERY quiet timid guy asked if he could ask a question. We were in the feminine products aisle and I had just tossed a couple of packages of pads into my basket my wife needed. It took me a bit to remember what it was like when I was that young and buying tampons, pads, and even rubbers were a massively embarrassing thing for me and this 'kid' was going through that. It seems he had no idea what his girlfriend needed and didn't want to ask the female staff. He ended up calling her and putting me on the phone. It was resolved quickly and the poor guy was redder than a stoplight. I'm not sure when I stopped giving a damn about it, but it was a funny memory, and thought I'd share.
Being on your period is a very delicate matter. You're on high alert during your heavy days, but you're also trying not to experience any sudden movements. I feel like I need to wear a construction sign. Right lane closed ahead, no sneezing, bending over or running. Yield to slow traffic, and beware of road rage.
When men complain about menstrual moods? I just remind them that's when women's hormone levels are closest to that of a male. "Connect the dots, dude."
Ladies, don't fear it: Menopause is AWESOME. I am embracing the aspect of The Crone. You can no longer dismiss me as being 'hormonal'; when you find me terrifying, it's ALL ME.
Definitely. I had insane cramps that started at least a week before the bleeding started, long periods, the most terrible mood swings ever for two weeks every month and when I wasn't bitchy, cramping or bleeding, I was horny af, lol. Now, I'm in a great mood every day, relaxed, peaceful and really content. The hormonal rollercoaster was hell, with me finally understanding how unhinged I was most of my life. I never wanted kids and my only regret is not to have an hysterectomy done at age 30. My life would've been so much better without the hormonal onslaught from age 11 to 49.
I went through a hellish cycles, starting at 9! To say I was happy to get rid of that nonsense every month is such an understatement, I can't even tell you. Menopause freed me from the torture! A little span of pseudo-PMS and power surges was a worthwhile price to pay, IMHO.
The removing makeup one before bed, changes when you have kids. I’ve passed out in full makeup more as a mom than I ever did drunk. Parent exhaustion is a real thing
@@sinac.270 Right!? Lol I was just thinking, who has the time or energy for makeup with young kids? I generally only wore it on special occasions, and even then it was a rush job done on the way while my husband drove. (Thank goodness he has never been a makeup fan.) Or if I drove, at stoplights. Then again, I’ve always been a mess with poor time management. So perhaps it is just me. 😳 Kudos to you supermoms out there!
Best! Story! EVER! I went to an all girl Catholic high School. We had one male teacher who taught geometry and algebra. The concept that a letter can equal a number does not compute in my brain and he sent me to the office on a daily basis cuz he would get so frustrated with my questions. When I used to be on my period I would get really bad cramps and sometimes I would pass out. Well on this particular day when he was yelling at me trying to get his point across my friend said my eyes rolled back into my head and I fell out of my chair and passed out. He never called on me, looked at me, or ask me a question for the rest of the year and I passed with a B!
I'm surprised there wasn't something in there about men making the PMS comments. I always told my husband, It's not that I'm being bit*chy, it's just that I can't tolerate stupid when I'm in this much pain!
I love how at 1:10 Charlotte interpreted the last two pics. I thought something different. I believe the 3rd one is supposed to be that annoying ass gap in the back of pants because they are never made for girls with a big butt/hips and small waist. And the fourth one isn't elastic, it's the wiring in a bra poking out, which is so annoying and painful!
I was in an ASL course in college & we’d go up to the front of the room in front of the whole class (which was PACKED! like 40 people crammed into 1 small room) and it’s my team’s turn so the 3 of us go up and we each take turns saying our names and then asking a random question in ASL & on my name I suddenly sneezed, choked on my own spit and then signed ‘Water fountain?!?!’ and we all laughed and I felt the telltale gush & made the ‘my period just started!’-face then the girl in the front row pointed at her butt and then at me and she mouthed the word ‘tampon’ & all 3 of us standing up just kept laughing so hard and the deaf teacher came around and signed ‘what?’ And I don’t know the sign for period but to spell it so he kept swishing his fake hair back n forth & mouthing ‘Periodt!’ bc he thought I was just being sassy and IT JUST GOT WEIRDER FROM THERE!!!!!! 😅😅😅😅
You know what is worse that the elastic breaking in the bra? The underwire breaking into half while you work and you still have 6 hours to go and no opportunity to change or to buy a new one. The feeling of the wire wanting to poke through your breast is not fun, so the remaining time is spent having some tissues or toilet paper stuffed into the bra just to keep oneself alive. But the most ironical thing about this is when you work in a clothing store and they don't cater to your size in the underwear department. Mmm, fantastic, that. Love that for me and any other woman who has to go through that.
@@lakshmir7616 Then I would have to cut the other one too. It's just that the size is quite large so it would be very uncomfortable to have padded bra without underwire, it doesn't fit well then and it would look wonky.
@@SurrealisticLEO ah yes it depends on the bra size then but this was also my immediate first thought to remove the wire. I could not bare a poking wire, they are so harsh. Eversince I nuresd my firstborn I hate bras with an underwire with a passion. From now on just wireless bras! SOO much better for my medium sized chest
That first cramp was always the “HURRY RUSH TO THE BATHROOM” Just to see if I could save the undies in time. It was 50/50. I don’t miss them at all. All hail menopause.
That brought back a bad memory of being at Six Flags with my family when I was a teen, and staining my light blue jeans from a sudden gush. My brother loaned me his shirt to tie around my waist, and my dad bought him a souvenir t-shirt to wear instead. No one said anything, just took care of me without embarrassing me. I love my family!
While having "the menstruation talk" with us kids, our mom showed us how tampons work by putting a tampon in a small glass of water. Although a bit jarring to see how it just went _POOF_ and expanded, it gave me a sense of security that "hey, these actually work great and you shouldn't have to worry about any leakage during school." Because at age 13, that would've been... *takes a deep breath* mortifying to me. 😅
Honestly my mother and oldest sister refuses to explain how to use tampons so I just had to suck it up and deal with pads (which were super itchy and uncomfortable) for years. Then I finally figured out how to use tampons not even a year ago and a 15 second advertisement taught me more than they did.
My male physics teacher had to clean my blood of my chair. I told him that my pad had leaked and asked for a paper towel to clean it up. He just told me to go to the bathroom and that he would clean it up. He was super nice but I struggled to talk to him for the next two years.
Having an autistic son, I never had to even ask if something looks bad on me. I'm big anyway, but he'll tell me if something shows my stomach pouch, or doesn't quite cover my butt, or just seems tighter than I usually wear. Being taller than me, he caught my hair loss first, due to my lupus, and just a couple of weeks ago advised me my mustache was showing. Hey, I wear a mask when I'm out! Who's going to see? My son sees all.
@@idontknowwhoiam3769 I had to really teach him he couldn't say that stuff to other people. I would say, "how would you feel if someone said your butt was big?" and he'd say "But mine isn't". So literal minded and disconnect to nuance.
@@shahana_style Yes, my son is 35 now and still has to be reminded that while I have grown used to him, others might take offence. So he does the if you can't say something nice, don't say anything, and is the quietest person at family gatherings.
I was the first in my class to get period and start developing breasts. By almost a year. I didn't care a whit for the boys but they started paying attention to me. I had no other claim to fame and was not popular as such. This made other girls jealous. Finally, after a very unpleasant and confusing year, both with my changing body and unwelcome attention from all classmates, other girls started catching up. We were at the gym and this 'popular' girl demonstrated how now she is taller than me and also has breasts. I realized, through a fog of not giving a damn, that she now expects me to be jealous and envious. I wholeheartedly laughed in her face. Truly, the grass is always greener on the other side.
Yeah, I was in that group. Don't know if I was the first, but I was definitely ahead of most (for boobs at leat). No clue if the guys paid more attention to me, because I was mostly clueless about that at that age. Didn't pay much attention, and didn't care to.
True story!! My dad will not entertain the idea that women have periods. He’s in his 60’s and gets so red & bothered when we talk about it in front of him. He’s obviously very uncomfortable and we don’t care. My mom says we shouldn’t talk about it around him. I say he needs to grow up. He might also believe that women don’t fart. 🙄
@@adolfohernandez4307 Well someone felt targeted, lol. Not knowing what it's like and/or not having to deal with it has nothing to do with being mature or immature about it. If you don't care, then don't comment :)
I wasnt a bra stuffer but I was also in high school before I developed. I was so mortified being the only girl with nothing. I stopped changing in the locker room and just changed in the bathroom because the girls made fun of me too much for my scars, stretch marks (even though I was a twig I have em on my legs), and the lack of anything confirming I was a woman till I was 15 or 16.
I was like 6 years old when my chest started developing and I was forced to start wearing bras. In 3rd grade I was physically more mature than my classmates but thankfully none of them were jerks about it. However in middle school I was accused of stuffing because again, I was more matured than most of the others. I actually had a group of girls corner and ask me if I was stuffing myself, and then ganged up on me (and poked me) when they didn’t like my answer. Middle schoolers (it wasn’t just the girls) are fucking brutal.
Technically, Ursula wasn't a villain. She had a legal contract with Ariel and was totally within her rights to do what she did. Triton tried to destroy the contract but he couldn't, because it was legit. So he signed over the kingdom. She took possession and then Eric straight up murdered her. He ended up totally fine and got the princess. That's some 🐂💩.
@@TheMichm1221 : Ariel should've been considered too young to sign a contract, and should've had representation. Also, how does her father sign a contract to release her from the spell where the small print doesn't include that she can't jack his triton and just murder them all anyway?
@@PoochieCollins Ariel was of age or it wouldn't have been legal and Triton could totally have voided it. But I'm thinking she wrote the contract, so he couldn't slip in that obviously needed clause.
@@TheMichm1221 : I was being fairly facetious, as it's more a criticism of iffy writing. If there was this universe with magical, binding contracts, Ariel would've had at least some education and warning about them, especially as a royal. And King Triton signing the latter contract with no provisions against Ursula would make no sense for a fairly intelligent adult (Ariel was a naive teenager in signing her contract, Triton would've had none such).
Lmao "bra jail" I was in a grouchy mood a couple of weeks ago, trying to get a healthyish supper together for my son, I didn't realise how much I was complaining and tutting until my 7year old son came in to the kitchen and said "mom,why don't you take your bra off and put your pyjamas on and then you'll be in a good mood "😬 until then, I didn't realise he'd noticed my routine when we got back home every night from work and school- one of the first things I do is remove the torture garment- fling it aggressively into the laundry basket, put on cosy slippers, then resume evening routine. Surely I'm not alone in this?xxx
Absolutely not. I've gotten in the habit of just straight up disrobing when I get home, putting on something comfy, and, of course, either yeeting my bra like I'm trying to make a 3 point basket or using that thing like a rubber band and shooting it straight into my hamper. Or floor. Depends on my mood XD
Mine didn’t “trick” me, because it was predictable, after having enough years of going through it. That is, until I got the infamous C shot last year. Now I bleed significantly heavier, and for several days longer. It’s like starting all over again, and I never feel confident it is actually over.
See with me, I'm very aware as to how overweight I am. So instead of "do I look fat in this?" I ask "Am I too fat to wear this?" and it's not because I'm fishing for a compliment, I just don't want to embarrass myself going into public wearing something more unflattering than my weight lol
Wear whatever you want. You are gorgeous no matter what. If it makes you feel good about yourself then wear it. No one has any right to tell you anything.
I've been told "you're too fat to wear that, you look like a big lump" , it's brought me to tears. So yeah, sometimes it pays to ask do I look ok in this.
Reappearing period: so true!!!! I do a lot of karate and a couple years ago I had finished my period a day or two earlier when I went to class wearing, of course, the standard white uniform pants. Halfway through the class my sensei called half a dozen of us to go up in front of the class and demonstrate our form. So I stood facing the full length mirrors, with the non-performing students sitting on the mat behind me, and performed the first move of my form. Which, as luck would have it, was a high front kick. The resulting horror show played out in slow mo. As my leg goes up into the air, a giant red mark displays in my crotch area, confirming that Aunt Flo did not leave but only hid herself for a couple of days. And her calling card in the mirror was unmistakable. I quickly put my leg back down again and prayed nobody noticed. The next two moves were side kicks. *Repeat* side kicks. Two to each side of the body, to be exact. And that whole terrifying sequence finished with still another set of repeat side kicks, aimed right at the mirror. The shock and dread were nearly overwhelming. I had no choice but to perform the entire form, complete with 83 separate moves, many of them involving high kicks in various forms and in various directions. The only thing I could do to mitigate the damage was to perform the kicks as low as I could, in disastrously sloppy form, and hope that I was so awful that nobody was watching me. As soon as the form was over I bowed off the mat, told my sensei that I wasn't feeling well, and left the building. If anybody noticed my aunt's sudden onset they were kind enough not to mention it. I still shudder thinking about that day.
I remember a couple times back in school being asked by teachers “do you need to take your bag with you to the toilet”. Only ten years on do I regret not full out loud saying “uh yes it’s got my sanitary pads in!”
Oh Charlotte, since Monday of this week I got a tooth cut out, had a surgery on my arm, and caught a bad stomach bug..(tested negative for rona but anyway) in this last week I've been so week I've actually wanted to just delete myself from this world. You are seriously my rock and you honestly have kept me holding on. 💛 Thank you immensely for doing what you do and being you. You are truely an AMAZING soul. 👏 I love you!!!
I remember in 5th grade we had the “talk” and the boys also learned about period stuff and some of them of them made fun of us but the ones I was kinda friends with and a few others weren’t that grossed out by it and understood it was natural. I think they also told the other boys to shut up so that was nice💜
I just wanted to share this. Because it was the first time I realised how crazy periods are. Our friends were having fun and laughing on some hilarious stuff. One of the girl friends in our group was crying and laughing at the same time telling us to stop. We asked her why She said we need to stop because everytime she laughed her period flows like a "faucet" Tears were flowing on her cheeks but she laughing. As good friends we did the only logical thing... We talked about more funny things while she's still laughing and crying. We bought her a bag of chocolates and coke afterwards.
Oh Charlotte! I love you so much, and PLEASE do more of these! I started laughing the moment I saw that thumbnail photo of the "sneeze". I am 60, so I no longer have to fear the crimson tide, however, now my ol' lady bladder is saying, "Oh, you thought your days of public embarrassment were over? HA!" Note to self: ALWAYS go pee before watching Charlotte! Yep, I'm going to have to change my pants now, but it was worth it!
And I found out that adult diapers are also good for the crimson tide (I love that term btw), so I get used to them now and just use them later for my bladder! :P
U said it very well! I saw the video announcement & thought yah change it to yellow Gatorade for my story... 😒 🌹Luv Charlotte! 💕Total Honesty! (Does that hurt? Oh Well, moving on...💝
@@Valfara770 If we woman have to feel so self-conscious about wearing pads and tampons then I wish less people would be embarrassed about wearing the adult diapers too if they really need them. ffs, my MIL can't go more than 1-2 hrs without having to go to the bathroom and this means traveling with her is pretty much non-existent because she also refuses to use public restrooms right now, even in a nice restaurant if we go to one with her. Sometimes she's not made it by the time we get back and I'm just screaming in my head "if you have a problem holding it for that short amount of time, why don't you wear those things!!" smh
@@danielleking262 That MIL sounds aggravating af! I have to pee often, but I'll go anywhere as long as there's something I can hide behind! I live on 20 acres of mountain wilderness, off grid with solar and batteries. We have a house, but before that (16 years ago), we had a 1963 camping trailer with no toilet, so we went outside. I was thrilled one day to find a used Port'o'potty for sale at an estate sale for $20. WooHoo! What luxury! We no longer use it, and the wind blew it over so it's on it's side now. It's in this video of my awesome doggy who found two newborn goats inside it when their dumb momma goat forgot where she left them and we frantically searched for them! (It's only a minute long). 🐕🐐💕 ruclips.net/video/YqCw6xJjar8/видео.html
most women do not wear properly fitted bras and most have never even been to be properly measured - so they end up with ones that are too big or too small and spend the day uncomfortable. but what do i know...im just a guy
I am unfortunately an A cup, so I pretty much exclusively wear sports bras and I don't like to take them off because I am uncomfortable with my body and feel naked without them. But I barely feel them so I guess it doesn't matter
@@paul28177 it’s true that most women wear the wrong size and it’s obviously more uncomfortable, but at least at a certain size the bras can never be perfectly comfortable. For sure getting measured and finding the right size helped make it bearable, but it’s still a snug elastic around your chest for the entire day.
I once had a strange middle-aged woman - _total_ stranger - reach into the back of my jeans' waistband & tuck my label in, when she was behind me in a checkout queue. I freaking jumped like I'd been stung, & looked at her like she damn well tased me. She immediately came over all embarrassed, & just sputtered, "Sorry! Sorry. Mum autopilot. Sorry." I get tense in supermarket lines to this day, lol. 😂
I was once standing in line at a gas station and I was wearing a really cute dress, but apparently the lady behind me didn't like how I looked, and she continued to shout very loudly that I must be a "hooker" who was trying to steal other women's husbands because why else would I wear a dress like that, and continued to yell nasty things and make a scene until my baby sister who was in my car got so angry that she jumped out and tried arguing with this woman, insisting that she was simply insecure and jealous, which this woman didn't care for either lol, but it taught me a huge lesson in not judging ANYONE on their clothes, just be kind and respectful, you never ever know what someone else is going through, and even if that's not the case, don't ever judge someone based on clothes ❤❤
9:14 I died laughing 🤣. True story: a few years ago, I walk in the bathroom to grab something as my husband is stepping out of the shower. I spot one of my long hairs hanging from his thigh region so I innocently reach over to yank the hair away only to immediately illicit a high pitched shreik & perfect elevation onto ballet tip toes from my husband. Apparently, the longhair had been on the towel when he dried his back side. My attempt to yank it away accidentally had the feel of a papercut to the backside. Lmao!! He's still gun shy to this day & I'm still embarrassed to share it but it was to bizarre to not be real.
The struggle is real I have long hair it's horrible to say this but I can't tell you how many times I've pulled my hair out of my butt crack when getting out of the shower lmao
@@thatgardeninggirl2864 I've had to literally pull it out of my butthole on multiple occasions and it does not feel good at all. Who would think a tiny hair could hurt that bad.
Once my ex pulled very innocent ( while saying: hey there is a hair on your nose) a foot long hair out of my nose, which i appearrantly snorted up being asleep. It hurts like hel!!
As someone with endometriosis, the sneezing is way worse. And laughing. And rolling over in bed. Or just breathing. It's like birthing a jelly fish the size of your fist every time. 😑
I can relate to the birthing of jelly fishes, bloody jelly fishes😐last time i was squatting in the toilet to pee and a big clot was not coming out i mean it's like stuck there, i pulled it(u may feel it's gross sorry but i had to know the size so i can tell my doctor later) and it took a few secs to come out it was big like a finger size big. I got scared, visited hospital got scan thankfully i have no other complication than pcos. I feel sorry for u that u have endometriosis. I have heard and read that it hurts a lot. Take care
So I’m a teacher and I always make sure I keep pads and tampons in my office drawer in case some of my students need them. It’s only ever happened like 3 times but I was prepared.
I read a story on reddit once in which a school rule stated that bra straps had to never be visible, and a girl was put in detention because she had a tank top with string straps, so in protest, all girls wore the same type of top with no bra whatsoever, so there were no bra straps visible. That of course distracted the guys way more than just seeing bra straps so they quickly changed the rule lmao
My monthly routine is like, pissed off for a week before periods, wild but weak during periods, energetic and happy for the third week and dreading about periods again 💁😤😭
I live in a country where they don't sell my bra size (largest here is an E) so my goal when I went to a country that has them was to finally get fitted properly instead of the hit-or-miss I do with online shopping. When I finally FINALLY got a bra that fit, I heard angels singing hallelujah.
A long time ago I was walking towards the supermarket entrance when I felt a hard yank on my skirt! As I turned around to look at the woman who'd pulled my skirt she said 'I am sorry but your skirt was tucked into your knickers and I know you would have been so embarrassed to walk around the shop like that!' Too right I would have been. I couldn't thank her enough. :)
07:45 - In the UK, in high school the lads used to play a game where they would do this with one hand. Literally unhook bras with one hand, behind an unsuspecting girl. They liked to do it by surprise… I had a rep for being the strongest girl and made it clear if they tried it with me, I have every right to defend myself from assault. They never tried.
Only guy of four siblings, I used to buy my sisters' sanitary pads and feminine hygiene stuff. I know the brands even that are supposedly good for sleeping.
You are a wonderful brother! Ladies, this is the kind of quality you want to look for in a life partner. If he won't go to the store to buy your feminine products without complaining or being embarrassed, then toss that fish back in the sea! This fellow sounds like a keeper.
I used to work in that department and the amount of guys I would have to ask if they need help while they were on the phone with their girls was delightful. Never a rude guy, they were all just confused.
And my friends stopped asking me the "do I look fat" question, cause I'm honest. If it does, I'll tell you. I would want you to tell me. So when they're just fishing for a compliment, I'm never asked.
I had cervical cancer at 34. So, my body was FORCED into menopause. The hot flashes and mood swings were way worse than if I had gradually slid into it in my 60s. I always hated my period. But after my first few chemo treatments, and realizing I’ll never have it again….😭😭😭
Right! I felt myself getting annoyed just looking at that pic! Ugh, I threw out any underwire bras long ago and only wear soft cotton sports bras (or no bra)
Yes, the dreaded broken under wire that pokes you painfully. I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else commented on her mistake about that.
@@asexualasshole yep, it's as if some men think women should go around smiling all the time. Sometimes we just have really bad days and even if we don't, some of us have a resting bitch face that usually deters people from talking to us.. usually
@@lydan5808 It's real, and it's shocking. Who would say that, and why? So far as I can tell, it's only men saying it to women. Do men tell strange men to smile?
@@danielleking262 Exactly what I meant it was so true that I literally felt attacked by that :D - (sorry, not my first language, might have misunderstood the actual meaning of said senteeeeence. hehehe.
I was at an anime convention a few years back before Covid that happened to fall over Valentine’s Day. People were giving out gifts and this one guy gave everyone my group a gift but me. Didn’t even acknowledge my existence.
So, when I was a teenager I was always grounded for whatever reason, which meant that I was always stuck at home doing nothing. So I ate. And I was chubby. When I started college I finally experienced freedom! I worked full time, took on a full load of classes, walked EVERYWHERE, and sustained myself on coffee and the residual calories from breakfast. I unintentionally dropped nearly a hundred pounds over the course of a couple of years, but my brain never really caught on to the fact that I became thin. I still was convinced that I looked fat, still questioned that, and still made self-deprecating comments. It wasn't fishing for compliments or humble-bragging, it was just genuine disbelief in the state I was in. I know it's annoying when women that you don't think are fat / ugly / etc. but there are times when their comments and questions are coming from a genuine place. It might not be healthy, but it isn't always nefarious either.
Not african but it's one of the reasons I got short hair (undercut with longer top). Another bonus: I can go to the barber and get a cut way cheaper then if I just would go to the hairdresser and got my ends cut. Both is about the same effort but one is half as cheap as the other.
1:06 Charlotte adorably getting 2 out of 4 of these wrong is the most wholesome thing ever. #2 is a broken compact (eyelash pots! Haha you're the best!) and #4 is when a bastard underwire busts through and threatens to stab you any time you breathe or move. She gets a pass because she doesn't wear much makeup (oh to be that naturally stunning *sigh*) or have to deal with underwire bras. As she said, bralettes for the win (just not for all of us lol) Bless your cotton socks, Charlotte! 🥰
Years ago, I was at the pharmacy and the near elderly woman in front of me was wearing new jeans with the long sticky tag on it that showed her size. Not thinking, I ripped it off of her jeans, and when she turned around I apologized and shower her. She was grateful, thank God. We women need to look out for each other!
Some outfits are more unflattering than others though. And others compliment the individual body better than other styles since every person's body shape is different
Awe, the “Am I fat” question doesn’t always come from a place of fishing for compliments. It stems from BDD which is basically abnormal activity in the visual cortex, and can occur 1/10th of a second after receiving visuals. If you know 50 people? One has it. Body dysmorphia. No joke, folks.
@@malevolentsnow9867 That is awful for so many reasons. The psychology behind it is inferiority on his part. Take away the power of what he said by showing you are beautiful. That intelligence, beauty and wit have no size, and that it’s his superficiality that makes him go on the offensive; not your looks. The most beautiful people are disgusting when they begin speaking. Take his power away. If he’s looking for a reaction? Don’t. That comment said more about him than it’ll ever falsely say about you. It’s a reflection of him and his insecurities. Not yours. I don’t know you, but to me? You’re beautiful and strong. Don’t give him power over your thoughts. You control those. Sending you love 🖤
I had read years ago that you only shampoo your scalp and rinsing it away is enough to clean the hair, and conditioner is not applied to the scalp since it makes it oily. My shampoo to conditioner ratio has been pretty on point since I started washing my hair that way.
Instead of asking if I look fat, I'll ask "Do I look good in this?" or "Is this the fit or no?" because I don't want a compliment, I want my home girls to not let me leave the house/store lookin like a fool 😂 give me an honest answer please lol
The conditioner and bra ones are relatable to me. As a person with dry curly hair and triple D boobs, I am always running out of conditioner and cannot go without a bra. The bra stuffing one is not relatable at all. Almost like not all girls are the same... 🤔
I have a DD.. or an E or who the f*ck knows anymore... they keep changing them, but I can only wear bras when I go out... and even then it's no underwire, non padded or sports bra... it's really just about that support and the added heat so you don't look like you're smuggling gumdrops. The conditioner... sometimes I use it, sometimes I just hit the leave-in only, depending on what I did to my hair to deserve it, and the stuffing? Yeah... nobody I know did that... at least not in public ( if they did like in the movies and sitcoms and stuffed some socks/tissues or whatever else Gracie from The Nanny had in there to see what it look like in the privacy of their own home... nobody has to know)... oh the thing with the tampon... again.. I don't know anybody who would do or actually did that... but I did see on the internet that some people soaked them in vodka and "drank" it through the... ahem... "proper channel".
Same! At school I used to wear oversized shirts & never took my blazer off, to hide my breasts as they were already considerably larger than most girls my age … hated it and was so self conscious! Not sure which I’d have preferred though..stuffing the bra or hiding what I had! 😅
I went from an A cup to a D cup in a year, mainly because of medication-induced weight gain. It was trippy. I still only wear bras out but now to minimise wobble, not enhance size. The weirdest part was the dudes who previously occasionally addressed dialogue to my chest now ONLY addressing dialogue to my chest. Some things change - some stay the same
5:14- my older sister (who was beautiful enough to be a swimsuit model) used to fish for compliments and ask this in front our little sister (who was actually on the heavy side for a child) to purposely hurt her. Or she'd just flat out call herself fat. So knowing this, I just started telling her, "you're not fat, you're just stupid" to stick up for my little sister. And it got her to stop asking 😅
Hi I don’t have anyone to share with about this so I’m sharing it here. I had a new disability pop up two years ago and it was so bad it took me this long to be able to work again. My parents were unsupportive and abusive when I needed them most. I just got a job offer and instead of being happy with me my mom killed my mood and was just going on about how I have to “watch out” and think about things before I take the job but really what she was saying is that she doesn’t think I can do it. To anyone doubting that unfortunately I have had to learn to read her because of the abuse. So I’m glad I get to share this with y’all. Also thanks Charlotte you are helping me through the depression.
Purple has always been my favorite color! I don't identify with any Disney villains though. The Disney character that I've too often been compared to is Dory from "Finding Nemo", and they're right. I can't remember what I did or said 5 minutes ago! Oh, and purple is my favorite color! 🐟
As a guy I have learned in life that the ONLY answer when asked "Do I look fat in this?" is "In THAT?". No matter what you will not be asked that question by that woman ever again. And FYI LOTS of us guys have long hair and have to deal with wind and the unfair shampoo/conditioned usage ratio. I know this struggle from first-hand experience.
Same on the long hair. I ended up having my hair strapped into a tight bun 90% of the time in public/outside and went through humectant/conditioner faster than I would toilet paper. Thank gods I'm bald now.
Right! My son's hair is longer than mine, and I hope I never have his problem of trying to fit a mask over my beard! I made him masks to compensate for his ZZ Top style beard, though.
Shampoo is for your scalp, conditioner is for the rest of the hair, to protect it from the sun, hair dryer, products, and aging breakdown. You're supposed to use about a quarter (US) size dollop of shampoo, massage it onto the scalp, pull it through to the ends to cleanse the hair products out, rinse and apply conditioner to the mid length through the ends, or the full length of color treated hair, leave on for approximately 3 minutes and rinse. Think of it kind of like hand lotion, but for your hair. That's why the bottles rarely match after a few uses.
I could go without, but I'd be nippin big time, so... When I workout it's even worse, nothing to be done. If the guys at the gym want to look at an overweight, 40 something's nipples, go for it. 😂
6:24 I actually remember my sister’s approximate period date because around that date whatever I do, even my breathing, offend her greatly. Because of this, I know if she’s early, late, having 2 periods in a month or none at all... I ended up talking to our mom regarding her irregularities. My mom managed to persuade my sister to seek medical help for her period irregularities
Fun Fact: Tampons were used for years in food advertising. The plate of 'hot' food was freeze-dried to look fresh & plump for hours on set, with a tampon dipped in boiled water hidden carefully to produce steam when required.
I've seen this used for showing hot mashed potatoes for a commercial. The tampon was in boiling water and hidden behind the food to make it seem like the potatoes were steamy hot. Pretty sick.
I quit wearing makeup 💄 and a bra when the pandemic hit and it’s so freeing. Quit shaving my armpits for a while but my kids thought it was gross lol I’ll give them that one 😉
I think most of us did. I stopped giving a crap. No makeup, no done up nails or hair. I lived in PJ's working from home. Sweat pants and a bun. I did shave my pits, because I'm too self conscious about it, but my legs I didn't give a crap about. I let them get wild lol
Yeah, after a lifetime of thinking I had to wear long pants in public (because hairy legs were so "disgusting" to other people), I finally took the plunge and started wearing shorts anyway! Really gives me gender-euphoria, and that's a great thing
Compliments from other girls are usually completely insincere. They are building up to tell you something they hate about you. Random compliments from guys are usually just that. At least in my experience. Recent example: I have lost some weight. Brother-in-law's girlfriend "Wow, you've lost a lot of weight, that's awesome! You should totally go get a makeover now!" Guy at church, "Hey, you've lost some weight, great job!"
I'm sorry you've never had positive experiences with girls offering genuine compliments, but that's definitely not been my experience in either giving or receiving.
I don’t think it’s a gender thing, it’s just the girls you've known? I know a girl that always “lovingly criticises” me and would love if I got a makeover, but I also know girls that genuinely compliment me as I am. Also “get a makeover” isn’t really “something they *hate* about you”, but I get your point, they’re doing like a backhanded compliment or compliment sandwich for criticism. Some people are just like that, it’s not about you, or their gender, it’s just about them as people.
The funniest thing about the period is that you enter a ladies bathroom (no matter where and when) and there's always at least two girls with extra tampons to share.
Soo true!! I was in the airport once, and the girl in the stall next to me suddenly wails, “Mom! My period started!! What do I do?” I dig a pad out of my bag and do that kinda-awkward passing it under the stall divider for her while her mother is trying to get her to calm down. Then I hear a gasp and “You are my angel! Thank you!!” My sister mentioned the whole audible event later, saying that she wished she had an extra pad or something. I always carry extras!
The worst for me was tent camping when my period was going full tilt. Getting up from the air mattress on the ground in the morning was brutal!!!!! Niagara Falls had nothing on me. That's when I headed for a pharmacy and had an epiphany - wear Depends or some other adult Pull-ups/diaper type product for the heavy mornings/nights. Saved tonnes of clothes and extra laundry (undies, jammies, sheets) for both me and my daughter.
Love this, could binge. Very educational. Reflection: I've never really understood makeup, I think girls are just as beautiful without it yadayada (yes I know you don't do it for boys etc). But what makes me truly grateful I don't need to have makeup, is the point about not being able to scratch your eyes, which is a lovely activity. I will try to think about and cherish that more often, the fact that I can scratch my eyes whenever I want. >:)
1:20 this is not elastic. It's actually the underwire of a bra that has finally rubbed a hole in it. Then that stupid underwire wiggles its way into your armpit, or stabs you in the throat. 6:30 I have endometriosis and it took several different medications to get to one that helps. My favourite side effect..... No periods! I haven't had a period in over 10 years.
With my bras it is always the wiring at the sides that pokes a hole in the bottom and then pokes me in the side the whole time. And I envy you the no periods (not the endometriosis of course that must have been hell!) and I just hope for Menopause soon now that I'm in my 40s! :P
@@Valfara770 I was tested 2 years ago, and wasn't even pre-menopausal. And I'm 54! But yeah no periods is a nice consolation prize after all those years of pain.
@@AnyaMRocha They prescribed that for me but I was too scared to take it after reading articles and reviews. Do you have any really bad side effects? (If you don't mind answering) 💛
I stopped using conditioner about 6 years ago, and my formerly straight hair started getting curls after a while; it's really curly by now. Edit: lol I don't know if the representatives of conditioner makers found this comment or what's up with the hate, but my hair is better than ever. Doesn't get greasy as fast and doesn't break as easily. 🤷🏾♂️ I don't claim this to be a universal phenomenon when you stop using conditioner, but for my hair it was clearly a great thing.
Seriously? How long did it take to notice? If I quit using conditioner for 3 months? Would I have to wait a year to have some body in my board straight hair that I still have to use a flat iron on but if I curl it that is just a waste of time because the curls fall out by the time I get dressed.
@@whathappened1284 I didn't notice for a while, like 6 months I think. And it started pretty slowly. And while I never had natural curls before, my hair very easy to curl so maybe the tendency was always there and somehow conditioner affected it?
@@bonnemoms5413 Exactly. I have naturally curly hair that varies between waves, big cork screws and little curls. I had to do some serious searching for conditioner. Without any conditioner, it’s frizz city. Other conditioners just weigh my hair down to the point I only got loose waves. Had to find the perfect one and even then I only wash & condition my hair every couple days. Tricky tricky.
When I was a teen, the first cramp was literally "oh crap the week of suffering is on!" 20 years later, the first cramp is like "yay, done with the 2,5weeks of PMS!", lol
Couldn't relate much either, though it was fun to watch. never wore fake nails or lashes and stopped wearing makeup in my 30's. Don't like when my nails break but don't agonize over it, but I also don't spend a small fortune getting them done.
BINGO! The best answer/comment yet. My wife wears NO makeup and never has; that's one thing that attracted me when I first saw her in college. Why do girls torture themselves with all the garbage they put on to "think" they'll be attractive? Do you think that guy will never see you sans makeup? He will, and there's no sensing giving him a cardiac even when he does. Makeup is a turn-off for a lot of guys for the very reasons you show here. But as long as girls are sill enough to spend tons of $$ on it and the other things they feel they need because the media says they're not attractive without it, they'll be missing the point. I'm not marrying a girl for her mascara!
@@simplywonderful449 Can confirm: I don´t know a single guy who thinks makeup makes a girl prettier or more attractive - most, including myself, think it even makes them less attractive than without. so they are clearly not putting on the paint for us guys but for themselves - so why do they bother us with "problems" arising out of this quirk, like whining about smeared paint, smudges, makeup prices etc?
I've only ever known women who, like me, end up with an empty conditioner bottle, and an almost full shampoo bottle. But you must be doing it right because your hair is always so beautiful 💜
What! This shocks me lol. I use a teeny bit of shampoo, and then a whole bunch of conditioner, and then leave in conditioners on top of that. But I also have like waist length hair lol.
@@roguemystique7 i have to use conditioner. I have coarse hair. I have made the switch to L’ange hair products and they’ve done wonders with my hair. No more dry nasty hair anymore.
I’m with you on the shampoo conditioner situation. Conditioner makes my hair looks soo greasy. Even when I use it on my ends with a small amount. No Thankyou.
For me it isn’t the sneezing, it is standing up, out of bed, in the morning and feeling that gush. FML
Especially if it's the first few days of it! That's when you have to grab clean underwear fast and sprint to the bathroom before your period causes the Red Wedding from Game of Thrones to appear. Girl, I know exactly what you mean!
Oh, mine started yesterday. My roommate hears the “Noooo!” As I run to the bathroom, then, “Dammit…” he only asks where I keep the pads at this point, thank goodness.
A trick for saving the undies: cool running water, Ivory brand soap. Or unseasoned meat tenderizer. It seriously works! I swear by it. The Ivory soap has rescued many undies and pajama pants!… and sheets
OMG then getting to the bathroom with your legs squeezed together before Clancy of the overflow, lol
Thats the worst and I have heavy periods so getting up after sleeping to go to the bathroom is a race agaisnt time
Let me tell you, I celebrate menopause💃🏾
A few weeks ago I was shopping when a VERY quiet timid guy asked if he could ask a question. We were in the feminine products aisle and I had just tossed a couple of packages of pads into my basket my wife needed. It took me a bit to remember what it was like when I was that young and buying tampons, pads, and even rubbers were a massively embarrassing thing for me and this 'kid' was going through that. It seems he had no idea what his girlfriend needed and didn't want to ask the female staff. He ended up calling her and putting me on the phone. It was resolved quickly and the poor guy was redder than a stoplight. I'm not sure when I stopped giving a damn about it, but it was a funny memory, and thought I'd share.
This is adorable. Glad you shared it! 🥔
Cute little guy. He tried to get it right. Brave of him to ask a stranger to help.
@@tessaritter5339 - Yeah... I think he asked me because I'm a bearded older guy in a wheelchair, so pretty non-threatening all around.
I love that you helped both him and the girlfriend instead of making him feel dumb ☺️
@@melissa8313 - Nah... My memories of those years of my life are not something I would ever see someone else go through if I can help it.
Being on your period is a very delicate matter. You're on high alert during your heavy days, but you're also trying not to experience any sudden movements. I feel like I need to wear a construction sign. Right lane closed ahead, no sneezing, bending over or running. Yield to slow traffic, and beware of road rage.
🤣🤣🤣 I can totally relate!
When men complain about menstrual moods? I just remind them that's when women's hormone levels are closest to that of a male. "Connect the dots, dude."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 I can so relate! I love the way you describe it! 😂😂
And wearing black at that time, never white
Ladies, don't fear it: Menopause is AWESOME.
I am embracing the aspect of The Crone. You can no longer dismiss me as being 'hormonal'; when you find me terrifying, it's ALL ME.
Definitely. I had insane cramps that started at least a week before the bleeding started, long periods, the most terrible mood swings ever for two weeks every month and when I wasn't bitchy, cramping or bleeding, I was horny af, lol. Now, I'm in a great mood every day, relaxed, peaceful and really content. The hormonal rollercoaster was hell, with me finally understanding how unhinged I was most of my life. I never wanted kids and my only regret is not to have an hysterectomy done at age 30. My life would've been so much better without the hormonal onslaught from age 11 to 49.
😆
I went through a hellish cycles, starting at 9! To say I was happy to get rid of that nonsense every month is such an understatement, I can't even tell you. Menopause freed me from the torture! A little span of pseudo-PMS and power surges was a worthwhile price to pay, IMHO.
@@RandomNexus 9 years old??! 😱 I’m so sorry! I’ve been menopausal for over 10 years now, and it’s mostly wonderful!
😅😅😅😅😅
The removing makeup one before bed, changes when you have kids. I’ve passed out in full makeup more as a mom than I ever did drunk. Parent exhaustion is a real thing
I use a baby wipes. I keep them by the bed and they are just as good as makeup wipes when I am too lazy to go downstairs and wash my face.
Lol...so true
Well I just stopped wearing make up most of the time 😅
@@sinac.270
Right!? Lol I was just thinking, who has the time or energy for makeup with young kids? I generally only wore it on special occasions, and even then it was a rush job done on the way while my husband drove. (Thank goodness he has never been a makeup fan.) Or if I drove, at stoplights. Then again, I’ve always been a mess with poor time management. So perhaps it is just me. 😳
Kudos to you supermoms out there!
You have time to put make up on? Lol
Best! Story! EVER! I went to an all girl Catholic high School. We had one male teacher who taught geometry and algebra. The concept that a letter can equal a number does not compute in my brain and he sent me to the office on a daily basis cuz he would get so frustrated with my questions. When I used to be on my period I would get really bad cramps and sometimes I would pass out. Well on this particular day when he was yelling at me trying to get his point across my friend said my eyes rolled back into my head and I fell out of my chair and passed out. He never called on me, looked at me, or ask me a question for the rest of the year and I passed with a B!
I bet he tells the story of the horrendous day he yelled a student into unconsciousness too 😂
I'm surprised there wasn't something in there about men making the PMS comments. I always told my husband, It's not that I'm being bit*chy, it's just that I can't tolerate stupid when I'm in this much pain!
Maybe they're learning...
Girl you ain't lying! And after years of marriage my husband still pushes till hes close to meeting his maker😅
What's PMS?
Had to Google it
🎉🎉🎉🎉😅
I love how at 1:10 Charlotte interpreted the last two pics. I thought something different. I believe the 3rd one is supposed to be that annoying ass gap in the back of pants because they are never made for girls with a big butt/hips and small waist. And the fourth one isn't elastic, it's the wiring in a bra poking out, which is so annoying and painful!
Same
Same here too
Yup
For sure! Especially the bra poke 🥺😫
Oh, yeah, the gap...😒
"Your bra strap is showing."
And this, gentlemen, is why women learn how to take off their bras, while keeping their top in place.
I was in an ASL course in college & we’d go up to the front of the room in front of the whole class (which was PACKED! like 40 people crammed into 1 small room) and it’s my team’s turn so the 3 of us go up and we each take turns saying our names and then asking a random question in ASL & on my name I suddenly sneezed, choked on my own spit and then signed ‘Water fountain?!?!’ and we all laughed and I felt the telltale gush & made the ‘my period just started!’-face then the girl in the front row pointed at her butt and then at me and she mouthed the word ‘tampon’ & all 3 of us standing up just kept laughing so hard and the deaf teacher came around and signed ‘what?’ And I don’t know the sign for period but to spell it so he kept swishing his fake hair back n forth & mouthing ‘Periodt!’ bc he thought I was just being sassy and IT JUST GOT WEIRDER FROM THERE!!!!!!
😅😅😅😅
Nooooo 🤣🤣🤣 I'm sorry for laughing but the visual is hilarious 😆
You know what is worse that the elastic breaking in the bra? The underwire breaking into half while you work and you still have 6 hours to go and no opportunity to change or to buy a new one. The feeling of the wire wanting to poke through your breast is not fun, so the remaining time is spent having some tissues or toilet paper stuffed into the bra just to keep oneself alive. But the most ironical thing about this is when you work in a clothing store and they don't cater to your size in the underwear department. Mmm, fantastic, that. Love that for me and any other woman who has to go through that.
Couldn't u take it(under wire) out with scissors
@@lakshmir7616 Then I would have to cut the other one too. It's just that the size is quite large so it would be very uncomfortable to have padded bra without underwire, it doesn't fit well then and it would look wonky.
@@SurrealisticLEO ah yes it depends on the bra size then but this was also my immediate first thought to remove the wire. I could not bare a poking wire, they are so harsh. Eversince I nuresd my firstborn I hate bras with an underwire with a passion. From now on just wireless bras! SOO much better for my medium sized chest
Happened to me using a strapples bra, you just can't cut the wire or everything will be a disaster! It really hurts 🥲 now I hate wired bras 🔥
Yes! My husband calls it "structural failure"
Experienced the period niagara while laughing during this video... So relatable...
Hahahahaha Period Niagra.
Same!! 😄😄😄
Long past that, but I remember. Oh, yes! I remember! 😂😂
Oh yes, that is currently me too, at the moment. Also think someone is in my house, stabbing my midsection with a butchers knife!! 🔪 🩸🩸🔪🔪🩸😐
I went through one two weeks ago, and I'm back on the pill, and another period is trying to come through AGAIN. What the heck?
That first cramp was always the “HURRY RUSH TO THE BATHROOM” Just to see if I could save the undies in time. It was 50/50.
I don’t miss them at all. All hail menopause.
Totally agree!
Oh yes!! It’s like freedom!!! 😂👏
That brought back a bad memory of being at Six Flags with my family when I was a teen, and staining my light blue jeans from a sudden gush. My brother loaned me his shirt to tie around my waist, and my dad bought him a souvenir t-shirt to wear instead. No one said anything, just took care of me without embarrassing me. I love my family!
Yes, but those hot flashes and night sweats!
@@lisatolliver2866 Ive had the hot flashes since I was 20, at least now I dont have the periods on top of that lol
As a guy.... sorry you have to go through all this crap.
But we sure do appreciate all you do. ❤
While having "the menstruation talk" with us kids, our mom showed us how tampons work by putting a tampon in a small glass of water. Although a bit jarring to see how it just went _POOF_ and expanded, it gave me a sense of security that "hey, these actually work great and you shouldn't have to worry about any leakage during school." Because at age 13, that would've been... *takes a deep breath* mortifying to me. 😅
I didn't even know how to use a tampon until I was almost 20 😅😬
@@kimberlyjones8152 I hear that. Ngl, it took me a couple of years before I started using them because they were, um... too intimidating.
Honestly my mother and oldest sister refuses to explain how to use tampons so I just had to suck it up and deal with pads (which were super itchy and uncomfortable) for years.
Then I finally figured out how to use tampons not even a year ago and a 15 second advertisement taught me more than they did.
My male physics teacher had to clean my blood of my chair. I told him that my pad had leaked and asked for a paper towel to clean it up. He just told me to go to the bathroom and that he would clean it up. He was super nice but I struggled to talk to him for the next two years.
Having an autistic son, I never had to even ask if something looks bad on me. I'm big anyway, but he'll tell me if something shows my stomach pouch, or doesn't quite cover my butt, or just seems tighter than I usually wear. Being taller than me, he caught my hair loss first, due to my lupus, and just a couple of weeks ago advised me my mustache was showing. Hey, I wear a mask when I'm out! Who's going to see?

I was the first in my class to get period and start developing breasts. By almost a year.
I didn't care a whit for the boys but they started paying attention to me. I had no other claim to fame and was not popular as such. This made other girls jealous. Finally, after a very unpleasant and confusing year, both with my changing body and unwelcome attention from all classmates, other girls started catching up.
We were at the gym and this 'popular' girl demonstrated how now she is taller than me and also has breasts. I realized, through a fog of not giving a damn, that she now expects me to be jealous and envious. I wholeheartedly laughed in her face.
Truly, the grass is always greener on the other side.
😂😂😂
I started wearing a bra when I was 10, and it was not a training bra. started my period when i was 11 and just in 6th grade that was so terrified
Yeah, I was in that group. Don't know if I was the first, but I was definitely ahead of most (for boobs at leat). No clue if the guys paid more attention to me, because I was mostly clueless about that at that age. Didn't pay much attention, and didn't care to.
I like your story 😊

If a guy is still grossed out by the sneezing thing on periods, or periods in general; he is clearly too immature.
Say it louder for the people in the back!
True story!! My dad will not entertain the idea that women have periods. He’s in his 60’s and gets so red & bothered when we talk about it in front of him. He’s obviously very uncomfortable and we don’t care. My mom says we shouldn’t talk about it around him. I say he needs to grow up. He might also believe that women don’t fart. 🙄
@@adolfohernandez4307 Well someone felt targeted, lol.
Not knowing what it's like and/or not having to deal with it has nothing to do with being mature or immature about it.
If you don't care, then don't comment :)
Haha, the period sneeze is only a precursor to post-childbirth sneezes, where other things leak. The price we pay…
I mean to be fair to the guys I deal with it every month and it still grosses me out 😂
I wasnt a bra stuffer but I was also in high school before I developed. I was so mortified being the only girl with nothing. I stopped changing in the locker room and just changed in the bathroom because the girls made fun of me too much for my scars, stretch marks (even though I was a twig I have em on my legs), and the lack of anything confirming I was a woman till I was 15 or 16.
I was like 6 years old when my chest started developing and I was forced to start wearing bras.
In 3rd grade I was physically more mature than my classmates but thankfully none of them were jerks about it.
However in middle school I was accused of stuffing because again, I was more matured than most of the others.
I actually had a group of girls corner and ask me if I was stuffing myself, and then ganged up on me (and poked me) when they didn’t like my answer.
Middle schoolers (it wasn’t just the girls) are fucking brutal.
Disney villains like the evil queen are just princesses who spent too much time of their lives working in customer service
I never noticed how they used purple and black for so many female villains too, that's crazy!!!
Technically, Ursula wasn't a villain. She had a legal contract with Ariel and was totally within her rights to do what she did. Triton tried to destroy the contract but he couldn't, because it was legit. So he signed over the kingdom. She took possession and then Eric straight up murdered her. He ended up totally fine and got the princess. That's some 🐂💩.
@@TheMichm1221 : Ariel should've been considered too young to sign a contract, and should've had representation. Also, how does her father sign a contract to release her from the spell where the small print doesn't include that she can't jack his triton and just murder them all anyway?
@@PoochieCollins Ariel was of age or it wouldn't have been legal and Triton could totally have voided it. But I'm thinking she wrote the contract, so he couldn't slip in that obviously needed clause.
@@TheMichm1221 : I was being fairly facetious, as it's more a criticism of iffy writing. If there was this universe with magical, binding contracts, Ariel would've had at least some education and warning about them, especially as a royal. And King Triton signing the latter contract with no provisions against Ursula would make no sense for a fairly intelligent adult (Ariel was a naive teenager in signing her contract, Triton would've had none such).
"Do I look fat?"
" how do you feel?"

It's a rhetorical question.
Our house. Son: "Mom, can you drive me to..." The Husband: "She's not going anywhere. She already removed the bra."
Your husband is a good man.
Smart and observant man!
My house too
😆
True story. Very true. When I get home from work my husband knows better than to ask me to go someplace after I remove my bra.
Lmao "bra jail" I was in a grouchy mood a couple of weeks ago, trying to get a healthyish supper together for my son, I didn't realise how much I was complaining and tutting until my 7year old son came in to the kitchen and said "mom,why don't you take your bra off and put your pyjamas on and then you'll be in a good mood "😬 until then, I didn't realise he'd noticed my routine when we got back home every night from work and school- one of the first things I do is remove the torture garment- fling it aggressively into the laundry basket, put on cosy slippers, then resume evening routine. Surely I'm not alone in this?xxx
Absolutely not. I've gotten in the habit of just straight up disrobing when I get home, putting on something comfy, and, of course, either yeeting my bra like I'm trying to make a 3 point basket or using that thing like a rubber band and shooting it straight into my hamper. Or floor. Depends on my mood XD
The period sneak attack second wind is so real and gets me every damn month.
Mine didn’t “trick” me, because it was predictable, after having enough years of going through it. That is, until I got the infamous C shot last year. Now I bleed significantly heavier, and for several days longer. It’s like starting all over again, and I never feel confident it is actually over.
See with me, I'm very aware as to how overweight I am. So instead of "do I look fat in this?" I ask "Am I too fat to wear this?" and it's not because I'm fishing for a compliment, I just don't want to embarrass myself going into public wearing something more unflattering than my weight lol
You're beautiful no matter what size you are darlin! 🖤💋
Wear whatever you want. You are gorgeous no matter what. If it makes you feel good about yourself then wear it. No one has any right to tell you anything.
I've been told "you're too fat to wear that, you look like a big lump" , it's brought me to tears. So yeah, sometimes it pays to ask do I look ok in this.
@@lisatolliver2866 Yeah, I'll ask 'Do I look stupid in this?' but weight has nothing to do with it, I just have a crappy sense of style.
Same here! I don't want to be flattered or someone to tell me I'm not fat. I just don't want to make a damn fool of myself in public, lol.
Reappearing period: so true!!!! I do a lot of karate and a couple years ago I had finished my period a day or two earlier when I went to class wearing, of course, the standard white uniform pants. Halfway through the class my sensei called half a dozen of us to go up in front of the class and demonstrate our form. So I stood facing the full length mirrors, with the non-performing students sitting on the mat behind me, and performed the first move of my form. Which, as luck would have it, was a high front kick.
The resulting horror show played out in slow mo. As my leg goes up into the air, a giant red mark displays in my crotch area, confirming that Aunt Flo did not leave but only hid herself for a couple of days. And her calling card in the mirror was unmistakable. I quickly put my leg back down again and prayed nobody noticed.
The next two moves were side kicks. *Repeat* side kicks. Two to each side of the body, to be exact. And that whole terrifying sequence finished with still another set of repeat side kicks, aimed right at the mirror.
The shock and dread were nearly overwhelming. I had no choice but to perform the entire form, complete with 83 separate moves, many of them involving high kicks in various forms and in various directions. The only thing I could do to mitigate the damage was to perform the kicks as low as I could, in disastrously sloppy form, and hope that I was so awful that nobody was watching me.
As soon as the form was over I bowed off the mat, told my sensei that I wasn't feeling well, and left the building. If anybody noticed my aunt's sudden onset they were kind enough not to mention it. I still shudder thinking about that day.
I remember a couple times back in school being asked by teachers “do you need to take your bag with you to the toilet”. Only ten years on do I regret not full out loud saying “uh yes it’s got my sanitary pads in!”
Oh Charlotte, since Monday of this week I got a tooth cut out, had a surgery on my arm, and caught a bad stomach bug..(tested negative for rona but anyway) in this last week I've been so week I've actually wanted to just delete myself from this world. You are seriously my rock and you honestly have kept me holding on. 💛 Thank you immensely for doing what you do and being you. You are truely an AMAZING soul. 👏 I love you!!!
I remember in 5th grade we had the “talk” and the boys also learned about period stuff and some of them of them made fun of us but the ones I was kinda friends with and a few others weren’t that grossed out by it and understood it was natural. I think they also told the other boys to shut up so that was nice💜
There's nothing quite like that feeling of your insides turning into the elevators from "The Shining."
😄😄😄
🤣🤣
lmao!
My fella calls me his ' little ketchup bottle'. I do not appreciate being squeezed.
LMAO !!!! 👌😂
I just wanted to share this. Because it was the first time I realised how crazy periods are.
Our friends were having fun and laughing on some hilarious stuff. One of the girl friends in our group was crying and laughing at the same time telling us to stop.
We asked her why
She said we need to stop because everytime she laughed her period flows like a "faucet"
Tears were flowing on her cheeks but she laughing.
As good friends we did the only logical thing...
We talked about more funny things while she's still laughing and crying.
We bought her a bag of chocolates and coke afterwards.
Oh Charlotte! I love you so much, and PLEASE do more of these! I started laughing the moment I saw that thumbnail photo of the "sneeze". I am 60, so I no longer have to fear the crimson tide, however, now my ol' lady bladder is saying, "Oh, you thought your days of public embarrassment were over? HA!"
Note to self: ALWAYS go pee before watching Charlotte! Yep, I'm going to have to change my pants now, but it was worth it!
It never ends, does it!!
And I found out that adult diapers are also good for the crimson tide (I love that term btw), so I get used to them now and just use them later for my bladder! :P
U said it very well! I saw the video announcement & thought yah change it to yellow Gatorade for my story... 😒
🌹Luv Charlotte! 💕Total Honesty! (Does that hurt? Oh Well, moving on...💝
@@Valfara770 If we woman have to feel so self-conscious about wearing pads and tampons then I wish less people would be embarrassed about wearing the adult diapers too if they really need them.
ffs, my MIL can't go more than 1-2 hrs without having to go to the bathroom and this means traveling with her is pretty much non-existent because she also refuses to use public restrooms right now, even in a nice restaurant if we go to one with her. Sometimes she's not made it by the time we get back and I'm just screaming in my head "if you have a problem holding it for that short amount of time, why don't you wear those things!!" smh
@@danielleking262 That MIL sounds aggravating af! I have to pee often, but I'll go anywhere as long as there's something I can hide behind!
I live on 20 acres of mountain wilderness, off grid with solar and batteries. We have a house, but before that (16 years ago), we had a 1963 camping trailer with no toilet, so we went outside. I was thrilled one day to find a used Port'o'potty for sale at an estate sale for $20. WooHoo! What luxury!
We no longer use it, and the wind blew it over so it's on it's side now.
It's in this video of my awesome doggy who found two newborn goats inside it when their dumb momma goat forgot where she left them and we frantically searched for them!
(It's only a minute long).

I've never related to the "taking off your bra" memes. Mine are not uncomfortable, and actually feel uncomfortable without the support.
most women do not wear properly fitted bras and most have never even been to be properly measured - so they end up with ones that are too big or too small and spend the day uncomfortable.
but what do i know...im just a guy
Oooh especially right before my period - I hate taking it off and the girls aren’t even big 😹😹
I am unfortunately an A cup, so I pretty much exclusively wear sports bras and I don't like to take them off because I am uncomfortable with my body and feel naked without them. But I barely feel them so I guess it doesn't matter
Yh gurlll same I even wear my bra to sleep feel uncomfortable without it
@@paul28177 it’s true that most women wear the wrong size and it’s obviously more uncomfortable, but at least at a certain size the bras can never be perfectly comfortable. For sure getting measured and finding the right size helped make it bearable, but it’s still a snug elastic around your chest for the entire day.
I once had a strange middle-aged woman - _total_ stranger - reach into the back of my jeans' waistband & tuck my label in, when she was behind me in a checkout queue.
I freaking jumped like I'd been stung, & looked at her like she damn well tased me.
She immediately came over all embarrassed, & just sputtered, "Sorry! Sorry. Mum autopilot. Sorry."
I get tense in supermarket lines to this day, lol. 😂
I was once standing in line at a gas station and I was wearing a really cute dress, but apparently the lady behind me didn't like how I looked, and she continued to shout very loudly that I must be a "hooker" who was trying to steal other women's husbands because why else would I wear a dress like that, and continued to yell nasty things and make a scene until my baby sister who was in my car got so angry that she jumped out and tried arguing with this woman, insisting that she was simply insecure and jealous, which this woman didn't care for either lol, but it taught me a huge lesson in not judging ANYONE on their clothes, just be kind and respectful, you never ever know what someone else is going through, and even if that's not the case, don't ever judge someone based on clothes ❤❤
Were you in a Karens in the Wild video? because I remember that one.
9:14 I died laughing 🤣. True story: a few years ago, I walk in the bathroom to grab something as my husband is stepping out of the shower. I spot one of my long hairs hanging from his thigh region so I innocently reach over to yank the hair away only to immediately illicit a high pitched shreik & perfect elevation onto ballet tip toes from my husband. Apparently, the longhair had been on the towel when he dried his back side. My attempt to yank it away accidentally had the feel of a papercut to the backside. Lmao!! He's still gun shy to this day & I'm still embarrassed to share it but it was to bizarre to not be real.
The struggle is real I have long hair it's horrible to say this but I can't tell you how many times I've pulled my hair out of my butt crack when getting out of the shower lmao
Omg pmsl literally haha
@@thatgardeninggirl2864 I've had to literally pull it out of my butthole on multiple occasions and it does not feel good at all. Who would think a tiny hair could hurt that bad.
Your story had me dying! Thanks for sharing. 😂
Once my ex pulled very innocent ( while saying: hey there is a hair on your nose) a foot long hair out of my nose, which i appearrantly snorted up being asleep. It hurts like hel!!
As someone with endometriosis, the sneezing is way worse. And laughing. And rolling over in bed. Or just breathing. It's like birthing a jelly fish the size of your fist every time. 😑
Exactly! It's like my uterus has totally betrayed me. 😒
I can relate to the birthing of jelly fishes, bloody jelly fishes😐last time i was squatting in the toilet to pee and a big clot was not coming out i mean it's like stuck there, i pulled it(u may feel it's gross sorry but i had to know the size so i can tell my doctor later) and it took a few secs to come out it was big like a finger size big. I got scared, visited hospital got scan thankfully i have no other complication than pcos. I feel sorry for u that u have endometriosis. I have heard and read that it hurts a lot. Take care
Truth. Been there, done that.
OHMYGAWD you guys! Sending warm virtual hugs. I wish you didn't have to suffer like that. ♥️♥️♥️
SAAAAAME
So I’m a teacher and I always make sure I keep pads and tampons in my office drawer in case some of my students need them. It’s only ever happened like 3 times but I was prepared.
I read a story on reddit once in which a school rule stated that bra straps had to never be visible, and a girl was put in detention because she had a tank top with string straps, so in protest, all girls wore the same type of top with no bra whatsoever, so there were no bra straps visible. That of course distracted the guys way more than just seeing bra straps so they quickly changed the rule lmao
"It's all about the braletes!"
Not after you pass a D cup my dear Charlotte lol
Or as a very wise friend always said, "Girls who say they don't always wear a bra don't ever need to wear a bra."
Or as someone who’s breasts make people crave Indian food when I’m not wearing a bra
F cup "lette" anything isn't gonna keep the public safe. Just sayin'. (42F)
Uh...... 🤔
I'm a C and they're still not enough support for me.
My monthly routine is like, pissed off for a week before periods, wild but weak during periods, energetic and happy for the third week and dreading about periods again 💁😤😭
That bra one was for real. As a part of the big boobs team, they need to be held up at all times or it’ll hurt me and possibly others.
I was working on a book entitled “Woman’s Bra Burts....Eleven Injured”. (Stole the title from Depp.)
I agree being big busted is not for the faint of heart. Like I told my hubby, I can never go with out a bra even now at my age
Truth. Gravity is ruthless ;-/
This. Although, I was always big from the start, so I never needed to pad. I've always been jealous of small boobs.
I love it when girls with small boobs tell other women bras are unnecessary, I guess I'm gonna pay someone to hold them all day
I live in a country where they don't sell my bra size (largest here is an E) so my goal when I went to a country that has them was to finally get fitted properly instead of the hit-or-miss I do with online shopping. When I finally FINALLY got a bra that fit, I heard angels singing hallelujah.
A long time ago I was walking towards the supermarket entrance when I felt a hard yank on my skirt! As I turned around to look at the woman who'd pulled my skirt she said 'I am sorry but your skirt was tucked into your knickers and I know you would have been so embarrassed to walk around the shop like that!' Too right I would have been. I couldn't thank her enough. :)
07:45 - In the UK, in high school the lads used to play a game where they would do this with one hand.
Literally unhook bras with one hand, behind an unsuspecting girl.
They liked to do it by surprise… I had a rep for being the strongest girl and made it clear if they tried it with me, I have every right to defend myself from assault. They never tried.
That's gross. Glad you escaped that
A guy did that to me in college. Once. I turned around and beat the everlovin' crap out of him while all his buddies looked on in amused horror.
@@melissablackwood Well done
Pre-watch comment: that preview about sneezing is so accurate, like gurrrrrlllll~ 🙈
Only guy of four siblings, I used to buy my sisters' sanitary pads and feminine hygiene stuff. I know the brands even that are supposedly good for sleeping.
You must be a great brother. You will receive a great reward.😇
Someday it will pay off.😊
Your the man. "Supposedly" ya none of that bs really works overnight 😂 my bro had 3 sister's but he never would have bought us anything like that
You are a wonderful brother! Ladies, this is the kind of quality you want to look for in a life partner. If he won't go to the store to buy your feminine products without complaining or being embarrassed, then toss that fish back in the sea! This fellow sounds like a keeper.
I used to work in that department and the amount of guys I would have to ask if they need help while they were on the phone with their girls was delightful. Never a rude guy, they were all just confused.
You are a godsend!
And my friends stopped asking me the "do I look fat" question, cause I'm honest. If it does, I'll tell you. I would want you to tell me. So when they're just fishing for a compliment, I'm never asked.
I had cervical cancer at 34. So, my body was FORCED into menopause. The hot flashes and mood swings were way worse than if I had gradually slid into it in my 60s. I always hated my period. But after my first few chemo treatments, and realizing I’ll never have it again….😭😭😭
Not elastic breaking free, but wire poking through bra fabric. 😖
Right! I felt myself getting annoyed just looking at that pic! Ugh, I threw out any underwire bras long ago and only wear soft cotton sports bras (or no bra)
oh god not that 😣
Yes, the dreaded broken under wire that pokes you painfully.
I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else commented on her mistake about that.
I can't believe no one said the classic "Smile, it's not that bad" from a complete stranger. Dude, how do YOU know it's not that bad? Geez
Factsss. A guy said that to me the day after my dog died and I just about punched him.
Until recently I thought that was a Hollywood trope and not an actual thing someone has the audacity to say.
@@asexualasshole
yep, it's as if some men think women should go around smiling all the time. Sometimes we just have really bad days and even if we don't, some of us have a resting bitch face that usually deters people from talking to us.. usually
@@lydan5808 it's crazy huh.. can't count how many times it's been said to me
@@lydan5808 It's real, and it's shocking. Who would say that, and why?
So far as I can tell, it's only men saying it to women. Do men tell strange men to smile?
Discharge'll do the same thing. I feel as if I straight up peed - like jesus christ. Dafug is my Uterus duin.

Sneezing, coughing or laughing too hard is the WORST for anything come out of there.....
@@danielleking262 Why do I feel attacked by that comment?!
😂
@@bs-gi3gs lol nah was just agreeing with you 😄
@@danielleking262 Exactly what I meant it was so true that I literally felt attacked by that :D - (sorry, not my first language, might have misunderstood the actual meaning of said senteeeeence. hehehe.
I was at an anime convention a few years back before Covid that happened to fall over Valentine’s Day. People were giving out gifts and this one guy gave everyone my group a gift but me. Didn’t even acknowledge my existence.
So, when I was a teenager I was always grounded for whatever reason, which meant that I was always stuck at home doing nothing. So I ate. And I was chubby. When I started college I finally experienced freedom! I worked full time, took on a full load of classes, walked EVERYWHERE, and sustained myself on coffee and the residual calories from breakfast. I unintentionally dropped nearly a hundred pounds over the course of a couple of years, but my brain never really caught on to the fact that I became thin. I still was convinced that I looked fat, still questioned that, and still made self-deprecating comments. It wasn't fishing for compliments or humble-bragging, it was just genuine disbelief in the state I was in.
I know it's annoying when women that you don't think are fat / ugly / etc. but there are times when their comments and questions are coming from a genuine place. It might not be healthy, but it isn't always nefarious either.
After being married for 26+ years, I learned that the only thing I ever know is nothing.
Smart man
That is wisdom right there.
Well done grasshopper 🦗
Any married man should know that his vocabulary is severely shortened. It insists of two words, "Yes dear".
hahhahaha lol
Hey there everyone 👋🏻 I hope Charlotte and anyone reading this has a wonderful weekend 💜🌷 You’re all amazing ❤️

"all girls know the struggle when there's wind outside and you're just like"
Me, an African girl with an afro :👁️👁️
Ah yes, love not having that struggle. 👩🏾🦱
Not african but it's one of the reasons I got short hair (undercut with longer top). Another bonus: I can go to the barber and get a cut way cheaper then if I just would go to the hairdresser and got my ends cut. Both is about the same effort but one is half as cheap as the other.
1:06 Charlotte adorably getting 2 out of 4 of these wrong is the most wholesome thing ever. #2 is a broken compact (eyelash pots! Haha you're the best!) and #4 is when a bastard underwire busts through and threatens to stab you any time you breathe or move. She gets a pass because she doesn't wear much makeup (oh to be that naturally stunning *sigh*) or have to deal with underwire bras. As she said, bralettes for the win (just not for all of us lol) Bless your cotton socks, Charlotte! 🥰
Years ago, I was at the pharmacy and the near elderly woman in front of me was wearing new jeans with the long sticky tag on it that showed her size. Not thinking, I ripped it off of her jeans, and when she turned around I apologized and shower her. She was grateful, thank God. We women need to look out for each other!
I don’t care it’s not about me/us…I get to hear the dulcet tones and magical melody of charlottes voice…
‘Does my dress make me look fat?’
‘No. Your fat makes you look fat!’
lmao I thought of that too 😂
Does my dress make me look fat?
Not one ounce fatter than you are!
Some outfits are more unflattering than others though. And others compliment the individual body better than other styles since every person's body shape is different
@@kacymccormick6341 so is everybody´s taste.
"When you had a night of sin and you´re trying to wash off your guilt, it´s called self care!" ... omgggggg, that was brilliant! :D
Awe, the “Am I fat” question doesn’t always come from a place of fishing for compliments. It stems from BDD which is basically abnormal activity in the visual cortex, and can occur 1/10th of a second after receiving visuals. If you know 50 people?
One has it.
Body dysmorphia. No joke, folks.
I’m a normal body weight, but had a stranger called me fat on Facebook yesterday because I called him out on something. It’s fucked me up ever since.
@@malevolentsnow9867
That is awful for so many reasons. The psychology behind it is inferiority on his part. Take away the power of what he said by showing you are beautiful. That intelligence, beauty and wit have no size, and that it’s his superficiality that makes him go on the offensive; not your looks.
The most beautiful people are disgusting when they begin speaking.
Take his power away. If he’s looking for a reaction? Don’t.
That comment said more about him than it’ll ever falsely say about you. It’s a reflection of him and his insecurities.
Not yours.
I don’t know you, but to me?
You’re beautiful and strong. Don’t give him power over your thoughts. You control those.
Sending you love 🖤
I had read years ago that you only shampoo your scalp and rinsing it away is enough to clean the hair, and conditioner is not applied to the scalp since it makes it oily. My shampoo to conditioner ratio has been pretty on point since I started washing my hair that way.
Instead of asking if I look fat, I'll ask "Do I look good in this?" or "Is this the fit or no?" because I don't want a compliment, I want my home girls to not let me leave the house/store lookin like a fool 😂 give me an honest answer please lol
The conditioner and bra ones are relatable to me. As a person with dry curly hair and triple D boobs, I am always running out of conditioner and cannot go without a bra. The bra stuffing one is not relatable at all. Almost like not all girls are the same... 🤔
I have a DD.. or an E or who the f*ck knows anymore... they keep changing them, but I can only wear bras when I go out... and even then it's no underwire, non padded or sports bra... it's really just about that support and the added heat so you don't look like you're smuggling gumdrops. The conditioner... sometimes I use it, sometimes I just hit the leave-in only, depending on what I did to my hair to deserve it, and the stuffing? Yeah... nobody I know did that... at least not in public ( if they did like in the movies and sitcoms and stuffed some socks/tissues or whatever else Gracie from The Nanny had in there to see what it look like in the privacy of their own home... nobody has to know)... oh the thing with the tampon... again.. I don't know anybody who would do or actually did that... but I did see on the internet that some people soaked them in vodka and "drank" it through the... ahem... "proper channel".
Same! At school I used to wear oversized shirts & never took my blazer off, to hide my breasts as they were already considerably larger than most girls my age … hated it and was so self conscious! Not sure which I’d have preferred though..stuffing the bra or hiding what I had! 😅
I went from an A cup to a D cup in a year, mainly because of medication-induced weight gain.
It was trippy. I still only wear bras out but now to minimise wobble, not enhance size.
The weirdest part was the dudes who previously occasionally addressed dialogue to my chest now ONLY addressing dialogue to my chest.
Some things change - some stay the same
If I don't wear a bra and turn around too quickly, people might get hurt.
That's why I don't jump up and down, I might get a black eye if I do! 😂
Same... Bigger than C cup gang lol and can't sleep on your back or you might choke
Then when you get old you no longer risk a black eye but you do have bruised knees 😄
😂
😂😂😂😂
5:14- my older sister (who was beautiful enough to be a swimsuit model) used to fish for compliments and ask this in front our little sister (who was actually on the heavy side for a child) to purposely hurt her. Or she'd just flat out call herself fat.
So knowing this, I just started telling her, "you're not fat, you're just stupid" to stick up for my little sister. And it got her to stop asking 😅
Hi I don’t have anyone to share with about this so I’m sharing it here. I had a new disability pop up two years ago and it was so bad it took me this long to be able to work again. My parents were unsupportive and abusive when I needed them most. I just got a job offer and instead of being happy with me my mom killed my mood and was just going on about how I have to “watch out” and think about things before I take the job but really what she was saying is that she doesn’t think I can do it. To anyone doubting that unfortunately I have had to learn to read her because of the abuse. So I’m glad I get to share this with y’all. Also thanks Charlotte you are helping me through the depression.
"Disney clearly thinks purple is evil" I see you, Editor-san, and I agree.
Purple has always been my favorite color!
I don't identify with any Disney villains though. The Disney character that I've too often been compared to is Dory from "Finding Nemo", and they're right. I can't remember what I did or said 5 minutes ago!
Oh, and purple is my favorite color! 🐟
It's not just the purple, it's the combo of purple and black. Puple is a "girl" thing while black makes it "evil".
I thought it was the lime green they used to signify evil.
I can't be the only one who thinks Charlotte would be a genuinely good best friend ♥️
The best everrrr!
I would love to be her best friend!!!!!!
As a guy I have learned in life that the ONLY answer when asked "Do I look fat in this?" is "In THAT?". No matter what you will not be asked that question by that woman ever again.
And FYI LOTS of us guys have long hair and have to deal with wind and the unfair shampoo/conditioned usage ratio. I know this struggle from first-hand experience.
Same on the long hair. I ended up having my hair strapped into a tight bun 90% of the time in public/outside and went through humectant/conditioner faster than I would toilet paper. Thank gods I'm bald now.
Right! My son's hair is longer than mine, and I hope I never have his problem of trying to fit a mask over my beard! I made him masks to compensate for his ZZ Top style beard, though.
Omg, yes. I used to have long, naturally wavy hair. Then one night, it went out for cigarettes and never came back. I hope its happy wherever it is.
Izma is my favourite bad woman in cartoons ever. The voice they gave her in my language made her 10 times better.
Shampoo is for your scalp, conditioner is for the rest of the hair, to protect it from the sun, hair dryer, products, and aging breakdown. You're supposed to use about a quarter (US) size dollop of shampoo, massage it onto the scalp, pull it through to the ends to cleanse the hair products out, rinse and apply conditioner to the mid length through the ends, or the full length of color treated hair, leave on for approximately 3 minutes and rinse. Think of it kind of like hand lotion, but for your hair. That's why the bottles rarely match after a few uses.
"Just don't wear a bra!" what's it like being able to do that 💀
Right!? Is it nice? Is it breezy?
Heavenly
Feels light, natural and very comfortable
Well, I have quite big breast, but I still don't wear a bra at home, I just can't do it outside of it, too much jiggeling going on...
I could go without, but I'd be nippin big time, so... When I workout it's even worse, nothing to be done. If the guys at the gym want to look at an overweight, 40 something's nipples, go for it. 😂
6:24 I actually remember my sister’s approximate period date because around that date whatever I do, even my breathing, offend her greatly. Because of this, I know if she’s early, late, having 2 periods in a month or none at all... I ended up talking to our mom regarding her irregularities. My mom managed to persuade my sister to seek medical help for her period irregularities
Fun Fact: Tampons were used for years in food advertising. The plate of 'hot' food was freeze-dried to look fresh & plump for hours on set, with a tampon dipped in boiled water hidden carefully to produce steam when required.
I've seen ad people use potent acid reactions to create "steam". The tampon idea is new to me, but I don't disbelieve it.
They were used for wounds received on the battlefield as well. The medics used them to stop the blood-flow from bullet holes.
I've seen this used for showing hot mashed potatoes for a commercial. The tampon was in boiling water and hidden behind the food to make it seem like the potatoes were steamy hot. Pretty sick.
lol the hair getting in your crack! (My hubby complains about my hair getting in HIS crack when he showers 😂)
I applaud the guys who do help out with women on their periods and learn about them.
I quit wearing makeup 💄 and a bra when the pandemic hit and it’s so freeing. Quit shaving my armpits for a while but my kids thought it was gross lol I’ll give them that one 😉
Hairy armpits on a woman is sexy.
I'm too big to go without if I'm out (might take an eye out or injur someone). I don't wear them while at home.
I like women who don’t shave their armpits. I think it’s pretty hot.
I think most of us did. I stopped giving a crap. No makeup, no done up nails or hair. I lived in PJ's working from home. Sweat pants and a bun. I did shave my pits, because I'm too self conscious about it, but my legs I didn't give a crap about. I let them get wild lol
Yeah, after a lifetime of thinking I had to wear long pants in public (because hairy legs were so "disgusting" to other people), I finally took the plunge and started wearing shorts anyway!
Really gives me gender-euphoria, and that's a great thing
Compliments from other girls are usually completely insincere. They are building up to tell you something they hate about you. Random compliments from guys are usually just that. At least in my experience. Recent example: I have lost some weight. Brother-in-law's girlfriend "Wow, you've lost a lot of weight, that's awesome! You should totally go get a makeover now!" Guy at church, "Hey, you've lost some weight, great job!"
I'm sorry you've never had positive experiences with girls offering genuine compliments, but that's definitely not been my experience in either giving or receiving.
I don’t think it’s a gender thing, it’s just the girls you've known? I know a girl that always “lovingly criticises” me and would love if I got a makeover, but I also know girls that genuinely compliment me as I am. Also “get a makeover” isn’t really “something they *hate* about you”, but I get your point, they’re doing like a backhanded compliment or compliment sandwich for criticism. Some people are just like that, it’s not about you, or their gender, it’s just about them as people.
The funniest thing about the period is that you enter a ladies bathroom (no matter where and when) and there's always at least two girls with extra tampons to share.
Every woman has experienced either the sudden period or bleeding trough the tampon/pad so we all have sympathy for anyone who needs one.
Soo true!!
I was in the airport once, and the girl in the stall next to me suddenly wails, “Mom! My period started!! What do I do?” I dig a pad out of my bag and do that kinda-awkward passing it under the stall divider for her while her mother is trying to get her to calm down. Then I hear a gasp and “You are my angel! Thank you!!”
My sister mentioned the whole audible event later, saying that she wished she had an extra pad or something. I always carry extras!
I legit get my period a few times a year (I have an IUD), but I ALWAYS have a tampon/pad in my purse for this reason!
@@katestark2519 pads, and undies. And a pair of socks.
…all womens’ clothes should have period pockets!
The worst for me was tent camping when my period was going full tilt. Getting up from the air mattress on the ground in the morning was brutal!!!!! Niagara Falls had nothing on me.
That's when I headed for a pharmacy and had an epiphany - wear Depends or some other adult Pull-ups/diaper type product for the heavy mornings/nights. Saved tonnes of clothes and extra laundry (undies, jammies, sheets) for both me and my daughter.
Love this, could binge. Very educational.
Reflection: I've never really understood makeup, I think girls are just as beautiful without it yadayada (yes I know you don't do it for boys etc). But what makes me truly grateful I don't need to have makeup, is the point about not being able to scratch your eyes, which is a lovely activity. I will try to think about and cherish that more often, the fact that I can scratch my eyes whenever I want.

1:20 this is not elastic. It's actually the underwire of a bra that has finally rubbed a hole in it. Then that stupid underwire wiggles its way into your armpit, or stabs you in the throat. 6:30 I have endometriosis and it took several different medications to get to one that helps. My favourite side effect..... No periods! I haven't had a period in over 10 years.
With my bras it is always the wiring at the sides that pokes a hole in the bottom and then pokes me in the side the whole time. And I envy you the no periods (not the endometriosis of course that must have been hell!) and I just hope for Menopause soon now that I'm in my 40s! :P
@@Valfara770 I was tested 2 years ago, and wasn't even pre-menopausal. And I'm 54! But yeah no periods is a nice consolation prize after all those years of pain.
Lupron?
@@DeepBlue7 yes
@@AnyaMRocha They prescribed that for me but I was too scared to take it after reading articles and reviews. Do you have any really bad side effects? (If you don't mind answering) 💛
You look amazing in that top 🤩
Omg doesn't she!!?
Completely agree🥰
I love her style! She wears the coolest, cutest, prettiest things, but then she would look good in a potato sack. She is the Tater Queen after all!
She is just absolutely gorgeous in whatever she wears!
I stopped using conditioner about 6 years ago, and my formerly straight hair started getting curls after a while; it's really curly by now.
Edit: lol I don't know if the representatives of conditioner makers found this comment or what's up with the hate, but my hair is better than ever. Doesn't get greasy as fast and doesn't break as easily. 🤷🏾♂️ I don't claim this to be a universal phenomenon when you stop using conditioner, but for my hair it was clearly a great thing.
Same. I believe it was always a sham from the Haircare Industrial Complex. I used to go through it like the girl in the clip, though.
Seriously?
How long did it take to notice? If I quit using conditioner for 3 months? Would I have to wait a year to have some body in my board straight hair that I still have to use a flat iron on but if I curl it that is just a waste of time because the curls fall out by the time I get dressed.
That's the type of conditioners you were using.
@@whathappened1284 I didn't notice for a while, like 6 months I think. And it started pretty slowly. And while I never had natural curls before, my hair very easy to curl so maybe the tendency was always there and somehow conditioner affected it?
@@bonnemoms5413 Exactly. I have naturally curly hair that varies between waves, big cork screws and little curls. I had to do some serious searching for conditioner. Without any conditioner, it’s frizz city. Other conditioners just weigh my hair down to the point I only got loose waves. Had to find the perfect one and even then I only wash & condition my hair every couple days.
Tricky tricky.
That laugh just makes the content, definitely the cherry on top
I once told a friend the shoes she was trying on made her ass look HUGE when she asked. The look on the sales lady's face was everything! 😂😆🤣
When I was a teen, the first cramp was literally "oh crap the week of suffering is on!"
20 years later, the first cramp is like "yay, done with the 2,5weeks of PMS!", lol
This one is a classic! 😂💕
Who is that adorable tatted pixie making funny vids? 💜
Never have to worry about my nails. I restore antique furniture.
I'm a woman but I feel malplaced for half of this video. I never cared for makeup, but I get to bed early at least so I always got that going.
Same here I’ve never been into make up, fake nails or anything like that lol
Yeah, some were unrelatable for me too. I can’t stand the feeling of makeup or fake nails, so I just don’t do any of that.
Couldn't relate much either, though it was fun to watch. never wore fake nails or lashes and stopped wearing makeup in my 30's. Don't like when my nails break but don't agonize over it, but I also don't spend a small fortune getting them done.
Yeh I’m a trans girl, I watched this for some affirmation but have gotten none.
Girls, can we just agree not to take part in fashion trends that physically disable us? Yes I'm talking about those nails.
BINGO! The best answer/comment yet. My wife wears NO makeup and never has; that's one thing that attracted me when I first saw her in college. Why do girls torture themselves with all the garbage they put on to "think" they'll be attractive? Do you think that guy will never see you sans makeup? He will, and there's no sensing giving him a cardiac even when he does. Makeup is a turn-off for a lot of guys for the very reasons you show here. But as long as girls are sill enough to spend tons of $$ on it and the other things they feel they need because the media says they're not attractive without it, they'll be missing the point. I'm not marrying a girl for her mascara!
@@simplywonderful449 Can confirm: I don´t know a single guy who thinks makeup makes a girl prettier or more attractive - most, including myself, think it even makes them less attractive than without. so they are clearly not putting on the paint for us guys but for themselves - so why do they bother us with "problems" arising out of this quirk, like whining about smeared paint, smudges, makeup prices etc?
I've only ever known women who, like me, end up with an empty conditioner bottle, and an almost full shampoo bottle. But you must be doing it right because your hair is always so beautiful 💜
Best way to start a Sunday. It's all stormy over here in Arizona, so thank you for bringing some sunshine!
I’m From Sedona AZ I just said the same thing lol 😅
@@alexmendoza9591 😆 That's awesome, I'm in downtown Phoenix. Nice to meet ya!
The period restarting is why I have to buy so many damn undies!
Uh oh ..I've never used conditioner my whole life .....just shampoo, lol.
I used to use it religiously, but haven't in a long while now
What! This shocks me lol. I use a teeny bit of shampoo, and then a whole bunch of conditioner, and then leave in conditioners on top of that. But I also have like waist length hair lol.
Damn, I feel extra bad for your hair.
@@roguemystique7 i have to use conditioner. I have coarse hair.
I have made the switch to L’ange hair products and they’ve done wonders with my hair. No more dry nasty hair anymore.
I'm jealous. I had curly, coarse, ethnic hair that demanded tons of everything if I didn't want to look like a wishnik.
I’m with you on the shampoo conditioner situation. Conditioner makes my hair looks soo greasy. Even when I use it on my ends with a small amount. No Thankyou.
Oooooh that's a REALLY good idea. "Maybe at one time they were princesses...." I definitely want to see their back stories
