I just know that Margo feels a desire to protect Sophie at all costs, wherever possible.

I think she sees her as a sort of opposite to herself in who they are and what/where they come from, but there’s also that aching familiarity in that they’ve reached a kind of moral middle ground through Margo’s manipulation/ruthlessness and Sophie’s sort of blundering bad decisions (no doubt born of general obliviousness/privilege and lack of impulse control). And she sees Sophie as someone who is so outside of who she is herself and those around her that she’s just captivated by the naivety/vulnerability of it.

Like Margo herself is all performance, and she knows this, she performs in her friendships and in her marriage. And yet Sophie is the type of person who is openly emotional/confessional and I think Margo respects it and wants to protect the preciousness of it. I think Sophie is probably the first person she’s ever really trusted to tell her the truth.

I think more than anything, Margo wants to be able to tell her own truth to someone who will love her anyways and she’s desperate for it to be someone she won’t doubt.

We all know what erectile dysfunction is but literally no one is ever taught what vaginismus is and it can cause people to feel extremely lost, broken, and cause people to take their own lives. Raise. Awareness.

[pokemonprofessor]

For the uninformed, vaginismus is when the vagina painfully tightens and spasms when faced with pressure, usually from anything trying to insert into the vagina. It’s the reason I can’t wear tampons, and why many people can’t have vaginal sex without severe pain.

There’s not a lot of treatments, and there isn’t a single one that is for vaginismus exclusively - they’re all medications or treatments to treat symptoms, but not the causes. In fact, for a long time doctors waved off vaginismus as a purely psychological disorder in cis women.

Seriously, this is so unaddressed and uncared for in medical circles. Please spread awareness, even if all it’s for is to let those who have it but don’t have a name for it finally be able to understand what’s happening to their bodies.

Certified Sex Ed Post!

Hi hello! This post is almost 10 years old and there ARE treatments for this. Vaginismus is otherwise known as pelvic hypertonia and it is a MUSCULAR condition that can be caused by many different factors including endometriosis, trauma, chronic UTIs, and connective tissue disorders.

It’s incredibly common! And it can be treated by physiotherapy.

I know this because I’m currently undergoing physio and although it can take months to recover, I’m already seeing improvement. A lot of the pelvic floor exercises are available online, but if you have these symptoms please TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR and see if you can get a physio referral (or investigation for underlying causes like endometriosis).

Also, my additions to posts never get reblogged so a note to my followers: this is SUPER IMPORTANT ISSUE that affects many people and is rarely talked about. Please reblog, and please share this info with as many people as possible.

Pelvic hypertonia/vaginismus is incredibly debilitating and psychologically damaging but it CAN BE TREATED. Spread the word, and you never know who you’ll be throwing a lifeline to.

My best friend has told me several times before that it’s incredibly painful for her to try using tampons, to the point where she vomits. I sent her this post and she said that this completely describes her situation. Now that she has a name for her experiences she can do research and get medical help!! SHARE THIS PLSSSS

You gotta understand that some people never really grow. They never learn their lesson. They never recognise their mistakes, they never acknowledge their faults, they never admit they were in the wrong. You will never receive an apology from them, and you will never see their behaviour change.
