I am always dumbfounded by how men react to women in pain. Often, it is a pain that they cannot relate to, thank you uterus! And instead of a man taking your evaluation of the pain at face value, they immediately downgrade the severity in their subconsious. There is a serious lack of empathy.

I have a daughter. While I may not have the parts that cause pain, a couple of my favorite people in this world do, and I strive to make damn sure that if something hurts, we fix it. Pain shouldn't be, and doesn't have to be, normal.

Anyone doubting this headline need only ask a trans person. It's funny how once I transitioned (female to male) that doctors now take pain - and any other concerns - seriously.
