However, about sleeping with your chainsaw......... stop! It stains the sheets! :P

As a transwoman, I was never told, by any medical person, that I would need to start doing self breast exams. My mom never brought up the subject, either. Nor, during my life, that I recall, was I ever told that I needed to do self exams on my 'Original Equipment', either.

That, to me, is a sad lack. Some subjects, however uncomfortable that they are, need to be addressed, in order for people to remain healthy.
Feeling uncomfortable or not ya still gotta get things checked out.

The chainsaw sleeps on a tarp at the foot of my bed.I hope that thing doesnt have a bad dream or my toes are in a bunch of trouble.
