I'm sorry that her first reaction to a stutter was laughter. I get that it sounds funny to a lot of people, but I don't think they realize just how self-conscious it can make a person feel - and laughing usually makes it worse (especially since laughter is one of the biggest things the stuttering person was worried about, and stress can worsen it). I tend to get defensive about such things, as my cousin stuttered and I have known more than a few other people who stutter, as well. Having witnessed the embarrassment, the shyness, the hesitation, the worry over how others will react, etc., I can't bring myself to find it funny. I wouldn't go so far as to call the girlfriend a shitty person, but that reaction was certainly ignorant.

I feel your pain. DH likes dirty talk and my go to phrases are “gimme that d!ck” and “you like my p***y?” and it came out “you like my d!ck?”

So yeah, embarrassing stuff happens.

Oh that is truly sad. I was a single dad with 4 daughters and I can't tell you how many times a teenaged girl was caught off guard and I'd get a call "Dad can you bring me...."

I'm sorry that happened to you!

Funny I didnt have too much of a problem putting the tampon in for the first time, but completely freaked out when I had to take it out. I guess I had expected it to slide right on out, not realizing it expands inside. I was convinced it was "stuck" and if I gave it a good yank that I was going to pull my organs out along with it or something. Thankfully my mom helped talk me through it ! I was so effing scared at the time though!

I went to my boyfriend's house and asked if I could dock my switch to charge it. He said "I didn't know we'd be doing THAT so early!" And I was confused. I went to the bathroom and when I came out he told me he googled docking and did not correctly use the term. I love that goofball.
