The Jewmanist

Of course there is the obvious reason for taking birth control pills and that is birth control. However, that’s only small potatoes for some women. I’ve been on said pills since I was eighteen. I began taking them due to very heavy periods and a severe lack of regulation. I have tried almost every type on the market but have never had a lapse in taking something. I’m a big fan of the four periods every year, personally. Mainly because they can be pretty bad. (And bad just doesn’t meaning cramps, but also headaches, backaches, and other pains.)

I know I criticize Israel from time to time. To be clear, I do not consider myself anti-Israel necessarily; I just do not believe any nation or ideal is above criticism. They are not perfect, just as any nation is not perfect. Yet, I can’t help but wonder what exactly anti-Israel is. Do I believe they should be entitled to a Jewish land? No. I honestly don’t believe any country should be ruled by religious law. I also don’t think there should be a Muslim or Christian country (not there is a Christian country). The Jews were originally “given” Israel because no one wanted them after World War II. The mere fact that a group of people are not liked or wanted around for no good reason is plainly screwed up. It saddens me to no end. All persecution does. It’s unfair and unnecessary.

Yeah, sure. Anxiety and depression affect one emotionally and mentally but it surely doesn’t end there. I have had stomach digestion issues and minor (usually) headaches for as long as I can remember, even as far back as those days when parents assured children they didn’t get headaches.
