hormone therapy

broadsheet (salon's lovely womanist blog) brought to my attention this solution to holiday shopping stress: it would all be better if i shopped according to what cycle day i was on. uh, what?

according to the editor of 28 days (the magazine/movement, not the movie), whether i go to funky boutiques or department stores should be decided by the time of the month. i don't understand the reasoning (there doesn't seem to be any), nor do i see any explanation for those of us who have anything other than a 28 day cycle. i guess if my cycle is not 28 days, i'm defective? i don't deserve to go shopping?

cath, you should try to be broke on days 23-28, when you the plan discourages you from doing any shopping due to your lack of sociability when you're premenstrual.

Does that mean that all those women at the mall are synchronized?

Sure they are, haven't you noticed all the racoons, rabbits and other wildlife pawing at the doors?
