Re: [VPD]Question for Tom Working out at the GYM

Hi,

In regard to weight lifting, people tend to use to much weight and practice

bad posture. Use lighter weights and watch your posture. Do not try to

compete with those around you.

I do not know if there is a correlation or not, but I have heard of a couple

women who were aerobic instructors and the like who developed vulvar

disorders or experience chronic yeast infections. What concerns me is the

tight leotards and body suits women commonly wear today. Your inner genital

structures are mucus membranes, like the inside of your mouth, not regular

skin. This skin is not designed to handle long term irritation. Another thing

to be careful of is keeping your genitals well ventilated so excess moisture

can evaporate away. bacteria loves warm moist places. Only in recent history

have women worn tight clothing. I read women in Europe hundreds of years ago

realized they needed to wear dresses with no or loose under garments or they

got what they called thrush, yeast infections. Form and tight fitting

underwear, actually underwear period, are modern inventions. It is

interesting how women managed to live without this type of stuff for

thousands of years but now we must have them. Think about it.

The vulva and vagina are quite capable of caring for themselves; if your

great great great great grandmother did not have access to a product

available at your local store today, you probably do not need it, in regard

to " feminine hygiene. " In addition the water we consider " clean " that runs

from our taps is full of chemicals intended to kill off bacteria. Your body

relies on many forms of bacteria to keep it healthy. Give it some though.

I am not trying to cry wolf or anything because I personally have no proof

one way or the other.

Okay, Debie - you caught me. I do try to compete with

those around me and enjoy compliments such as " you

lift a lot for a woman " . Well, now I may very well be

paying for that vanity. I like your bluntness!
