Reply to comment by Eastofdark in ELI5: Why does it seem to be harder for women to control their bladders? by RandomKidIsMe

Thanks. It's hard to talk about in person, so I get a little passionate about it online. Or defensive. You know embarrassing and all that.

Yes I don't think we know how common this sort of thing is because we are discouraged from when we are little from talking about "women's problems". Miscarriages are another one. So much more common than people realise. You have nothing to be embarrassed about. I will try to be more aware that women have these issues for other reasons than childbirth (so much for intelligent design).
