Healthy Chicks

The other day I told my boyfriend that I had a stomach ache, probably due to the fact that I can’t, um, go to the bathroom in his apartment. “WHAT?! That’s not good!” “But it’s gross,” I added. “Plus you only have one bathroom so you’d know,” I added. He started cracking up, and told me that I was crazy and that there is spray for that kind of stuff. He then asked what I’d ever do when I’m married and I simply replied, “That’s gonna suck.” What can I say, I have problems sh*tting where I don’t live.

But what I loved most about the conversation was that he was not grossed out in the least bit. In fact, he encouraged it and told me he’d “cheer me on” because it’s a health issue. HA. I hate those guys that think girls poop out sparkles and always smell like sugar and cupcakes and goodness. NOT TRUE buddies. In fact, we have bodily needs just as much as men, and it’s detrimental to our health not to let them out freely.

Next time I’m stuck in one of those, er, situations, I’m going to try to remember that, and maybe turn on the shower and give it a go. It’s only natural, after all.
