the replies on that post make me so sad. you can have issues with unsanitary things and still learn and accept very simple facts about bodily functions. you should be in-touch with your body, even with the ‘gross’ stuff it does.

#i'm not trying to be insensitive to anyone with phobias here but #this is your own body we're talking about #it really does do you good to pay attention to things like severe cramps that could be bowel obstructions #accepting incontinence is also a two-way street; it will help you have compassion for others with incontinence #so they don't have to feel constant shame and guilt about it #like please just think about this and stew on it for a while or something #the sanitizing of our culture and media re: basic bodily awareness is sad
