In her ongoing battle with body hair Emyli Evyrling obtained a device that some liken to a medieval torture machine — an epilator. The epilator has spinning discs or springs that grab leg hair (or other body hair) and swiftly jerk it out of your skin. Longer lasting smoothness is one benefit of the epilator method of hair removal but is it worth the pain? Emyli tells us today about her new Phillips epilator and how it gets the job done.
In our mainstream gender binary world there are two genders and that’s it. You can be a man or you can be a woman. Society has settled into that system over many years and though the only important difference between a man a woman is that a woman can bear children, there are vast culturally imposed differences between the two sexes. Crossdressers take advantage of the differences by emphasizing the femme characteristics to fit in as females. But what if you’re not easily labelled as one gender or the other? What if you identify as a woman but people keep labelling you wrong?
Our Hawaiian correspondent, Emyli Evyrling checks in with an update on her life circumstances. If you recall, earlier this year she was homeless for awhile. Now she has a roof over her head and through the kindness of a fellow human who was moving to the mainland and the Linux operating system she is back on the Internet with a real computer, not a tablet or smart phone. Things are looking up for Em.
Today Emyli Evyrling takes a look at just what it is that keeps humans from living together in harmony. That’s a big topic and while Emyli doesn’t have a solution to the problem of people making fear based decisions about how they will interact with others who are different she does think that it will be possible at some point in the future for humans to accept the diversity of life. It’s just going to take awhile.
