| Yes, I feel the same as you. I still have trouble with it. Luckily, my husband does not care either way. What I found to be helpful is to go to the gym regularly. That way, I feel as if I need a shower when I get home. Shaving my legs is something that can be done nearly any time, but I have issues ... |

| I'm failing to see why the uproar. If it's about the use of school for a prayer space, the school can simply say no to using the cafeteria, and the students find another place to pray in private.

| Please don't lump all Muslims together. The people who did this clearly did it out of malice, not religion. They hijacked my religion, and I want it back. |

| In Islam, we are taught that before we pray, we have to ritually clean our bodies, including mouth and teeth. For that we use what is called a Miswak, which is a stick from a tree that when frayed at the end results in looking liek the bristles of a toothbrush. The company can package them in flavor... |

| I hate shaving because I think it is pointless. To shave properly, it would take me 15 minutes in the shower. Wasted time. I understand it is a social norm, but I can't understand why. Luckily, my husband does not care if I shave. |

| This revolution in thinking is coming from all of the years of hard work in the people with disabilities movement. It is called the "people first" approach. I like it personally, and continue to tell people about it. I am not epileptic; I am a person with a seizure disorder. I am not Autistic; I am ... |
