IUDs have to be inserted through cervix and from what I've been told by women pretty much universally, poking cervix in any way hurts like fucking removed. How is this not universally accepted and approached accordingly with pain meds or local anesthetics for the procedure?

fucking removed

What?..?

Self censorship, the hardest one to bypass

I don't know, I think ml has some weirdness in its software that results in shit like this.

Hurts like fucking capitalism.

Dot ml considered "Bitch" a slur and blocks it. Kinda ironic in this case it stopped a woman from expressing herself.

Edit: actually rereading I'm not sure it's a woman posting.

It was not a woman... Poking cervix in any way fucking hurts as fuck.

Lets see if this also gets censored.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, sorry, I realized after that I was mixing up comments when replying.

Fuck isn't censored on your instance. It's not a general swear filter, just anything that could be used as a slur.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

It's a filter on lemmy.ml users and communities. They can't say "Bitch" (female dog).

[–] oldfart@lemm.ee 10 points 2 weeks ago

Hahahahaha, what times we live in

[–] lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

a filter on lemmy.ml

Good ol' lemmy.ml protecting our virgin eyes from terrifying words lest our fragile psyches break into an inconsolable mess. And lemmy is censorship resistant.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

And lemmy is censorship resistant.

It still is. The filter isn't applied to any other instances.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I had forgotten bitch is one of their naughty words. Pitiful.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

They consider it a slur against women regardless of context.
