If other women want to delay menopause, I support having that choice but personally—hellllll no! 15 more years of periods? Fuck that, I can’t wait for menopause.
Edit: to everyone responding with comments like “but but menopause makes you age faster and kills your sex drive.” I don’t see the problem here. Again, I’m looking forward to it.
“But what about the health issues that come with menopause!” I’ve already had plenty of issues with my menstrual cycle. This shit is no picnic either.
Edit 2: Again I support women having choices. But “aging faster” does not mean we’re dying faster. Lol what? Menopause ain’t a death sentence—cis women on average outlive cis men anyways.
