My experience with the deeply rooted misogyny of men in general and medicine particularly
I am having a bit of a meltdown, after seeing JD Vance saying that helping care for grandchildren is the purpose of the post-menopausal female.

Just to relate a brief history of my PURPOSE (sarcasm) in life:
I had a son, who died very young of natural causes.

I then tried for a long time to have another child, but had a string of miscarriages.

I was eventually determined to have too many uterine fibroids to ever become pregnant, and they were getting so huge that they were a serious health problem. My uterus was removed, but not my ovaries, as I was still quite young at the time and it would have slammed me into menopause.

I have a number of chronic health problems, so I see a number of different doctors pretty regularly.

After I had my uterus removed, EVERY SINGLE DOCTOR I SAW AFTER THAT (excepting my gynecologist, who was a woman, and did the surgery) asked me, "Why do you still have your ovaries?"

All of them male.

It pissed me off so badly that I started asking them, "Why do you still have your balls?"

Men, even DOCTORS, have so much ignorance and thoughtlessness about what it is to be a woman.

JD Vance doesn't even seem to think there would be a reason for me to be alive, since I will never have grandchildren.
Never mind that I'm a college professor, mid-career.
Or that I have a number of interests and hobbies.
And that I spend the money I would have spent on children and grandchildren on charities.

**** THESE MEN!!

MY LIFE IS WORTH LIVING DESPITE NOT HAVING CHILDREN!!!!!

DOWN WITH THE PATRIARCHY! THE FUTURE IS FEMALE!!!!

My wife has similar issues, and had all those surgeries pretty young.  Hate to break it to Ms. Coventina, but the doctors are asking a legitimate question.  If the fibroids were that bad in the uterus, the likelihood of them spreading to the ovaries is very high, so these new doctors who haven't gotten your whole story from you, just seen the charts, should be asking why you chose to keep them.  Your OBGYN knows the story, and knows why you made that choice, cause they were involved, not just cause they are female.

Why do I expect that DUmmie Coventina got triggered by something that either Vance did not say at all or reliably-Prog MSM totally completely misrepresented ... like the MSM have been doing with Trump for 9 years and counting?

DUmmie Coventina would refuse to realize this, but her doctor is probably concerned she may have developed ovarian cancer over the years since her partial. That does happen.

I'm not an MD and, thankfully, my wife hasn't had those issues so I don't know anything about the subject; however, what you said here makes perfect sense which means it would probably be forbidden at DU.

MY LIFE IS WORTH LIVING

Given its politics and worldview, that’s highly debatable.
