This is about my IUD experience… boys and squeamish ladies beware.

[spoiler]I got an IUD back at the beginning of September and didn’t start up my period until late October. Unfortunately, it hasn’t gone away yet, as I guess it’s making up for the fact that I’ve been on birth control pills for the past four or five years and I haven’t run out of uterine lining yet. Don’t worry, I called up the place where I had it inserted, and they said that I’m okay and that this happens sometimes; if I’m still bleeding in another week or two, I’ll call them up again and make sure everything is okay. I’m not feeling any of the “period” symptoms anymore besides the whole “bleeding out of my vagina” one, but it’s still strange that I’ve had my period for nearly a month now. Then again, it goes from spotting to light period to spotting to the point where I barely have to pay attention to it. I hope it goes away soon and doesn’t do this the next time I get it. :eek:

This is probably not normal for the average person, but since my period has been so light throughout the whole experience, I’m not really that worried. If I had to use pads/tampons, I’d be in a hellish mood about it. ::hugs DivaCup::[/spoiler]

There’s very little in my life that’s \*not \*TMI. So I’ll be selective.

After I masturbate I eat my cum. (Hey, it’s not worse than swallowing someone else’s.)

I sometimes clean out my nose with Q-tips. There are places that I just can’t get to any other way.

My first name is TMI.

Oh, wait, I mean _TIM_!

I have nothing. Oh that’s not completely true. I’ve had chlamydia several different times in my life, all from different girls, because I’M TOO STUPID TO WEAR A RUBBER.

A couple of years ago I had all of the hair on my girlie bits lasered off. All gone.

They say there’s a chance it can grow back, but nothing yet.

Do not read this spoiler unless you want to know about my poo.

[spoiler]I have diarrhea about 60% of the time I go to the bathroom. It’s never resulted in any other issues and while my diet isn’t great, it’s not so horrible that I’m worried about a bigger problem. I turn 30 next July, so I figure I’ll find out what’s up when I get my first colonoscopy.

And believe it or not, it’s kinda fun. :D[/spoiler]

Yeah, my e-mails in my profile. For the pics. To prove it.

Purely for scientific reasons, I might add.

**Sleeps With Butterflies** , how much did that run you?

Is it just me or does anyone think it’s way worse than swallowing someone else’s? I can’t explain why, but that just totally disgusts me!

It’s probably because cum generally isn’t considered so yummy that people would seek to ingest if it wasn’t a result of a shared sexual experience. Now if it tasted like chocolate, for instance, I reckon there would be a lot more blowjobs in the world.

You’ve never tasted your own, just to see what it tastes like?

Seriously. In that wouldn’t-ask-someone-else-to-do-something-you-wouldn’t-do-yourself vein?

When I was young and limber, I would sometimes even deposit straight to my mouth to save cleanup trouble.

Even for the TMI thread, that felt like overshare.
