In the weird overlap when we're the same age, never had a permanent job, always squeamish when talking about the female reproduction.

The problem is people see me, they are like "oh 30s female presenting must want to talk about making babies" and it always make me feel like I'm in a Cronenberg movie and it is never the one where people are turned on by car accidents :-(

Crash? I've never heard of it because I didn't move to Canada until after.

People see me and they just (rightfully) assume I'll never impregnate someone xD

I also have a problem where people think I would also wanna hear about bottom prep at brunch 😂 I just don't like thinking about bodies that much lmao

Tell them they can either keep talking, or they can keep drinking their mimosa
