20 Physically Uncomfortable Sensations Only Women Can Understand

Don’t you just hate being a woman sometimes?

Okay so we’have what men do not. I mean, where will they be without us? We bring life into this world (hello, childbirth!…oh well we need them too to bring forth humans but hey, we carry these little bundles of joy for nine months right?) Imagine having to wake up each day with your body changing every minute for nine months. Don’t get me started with morning sickness and all…ugh!

And then there’s things like periods, sore boobs, and a whole lot more that you couldn’t help but curse ALL.THE.TIME!

1. Your long hair…and where it ends up after a shower.

2. OMG, the heels!

3. That itch in your eye…and realising you have makeup on…

4. Your bra underwire!

5. The Boob ache!

6. Your Big Boobs

7. Mammograms

8. The Vaginal Fart. Lol!

9. When your vulva “fall asleep”…

10. Your pubes growing back…

11. Vulva pimples!

12. The smell of your vagina…

13. Something poking your cervix (that’s not a penis)…

14. Poop + Blood = Eww!

15. Your twisted menstrual pad

16. Your misplaced tampon

17. Period cramps

18. Aroused? or pee?

19. Engorged breasts

20. I’ll say it again…CHILDBIRTH!

What do you hate about being a woman?
