Fucks to Give Menopause

12 replies

MsFenellaFielding · 05/04/2019 21:04

I had early menopause at 40ish and am now 50ish.

You know how women are born with their eggs? After a visit to the GP I am now wondering if you are also born with a certain amount of Fucks to Give*?

I feel I am nearing the end of my Fucks to Give time of life.

Quite nice in a way.

*not sexually.

Nice idea...I think I ran out at about age 30 or maybe I'm just a grumpy old woman.

That little ditty has got got me through some hard times recently, LEM! I’m definitely running out of fucks to give. Sadly not quite there yet.

WheelyCote · 06/04/2019 05:54

Almost out of them here too

MayhemandMadness01 · 06/04/2019 05:59

My fucks are running out at an alarming rate

Thehogfatherstolemycurry · 06/04/2019 09:00

Yep mine are running very low. I use them sparingly 😂

YorkieTheRabbit · 06/04/2019 09:27

Mine are vanishing too! Tried to count them but the little bastards are quite good at hiding so occasionally I end up giving a fuck when I didn’t expect to.

TheoriginalLEM · 06/04/2019 21:04

Can't even give my fucks away today. Fuck you anxiety FUCK YOU

I think menopause has forced out my 'be a nice girl' socialisation and I've now turned into an antisocial bitch who is quite happy to call out people who are doing wrong. I don't care if people like me or not. I like me. I spent the first forty years of my life being a doormat, letting people walk all over me. I may now be over fifty, I may have white hair, I may be fat and lumpy but Jesus I feel empowered by simply not caring what anyone else thinks and having my own voice and not being scared to use it. Fuck you world.....FUCK YOUUUU......and breathhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I’m 47 and menopausal. Yesterday I shouted’pavements are for people!’ at a cheeky cyclist in town and have been known to hiss and sigh impulsively when someone is talking shit. So clearly no fucks being given.
