Pain with sex can affect all genders and often pain is due to pelvic floor muscle dysfunction. If you have pain with sex, find a pelvic floor therapist!
✔️Pain during sex is common.
❌Sex is supposed to hurt.
3 out of 4 women experience pain during sex at some point. People with disabilities may experience pain related to their disability or not experience pain at all. Pain isn't rare, let's normalize talking about it.

Here is a list of critical federal health programs for families that they want to cut.
Without these programs families will have fewer resources to care for loved ones, young and old. Those on the edge will fall into poverty.

I think it’s bonkers that every woman I know, myself included, were told the first time they had penetrative sex it would be painful, and we were just supposed to accept that.
No one provided any solutions or strategies to prevent it. It was just supposed to be the price paid for penetration. 🥴

While RFKJ is busy making false claims about how dangerous the measles vaccine is, he forgets to mention that measles can cause pneumonias, brain swelling, and kills people. Get vaccinated. Your score per person is based on the overall health of your party.
