Hubby: Why do they say you have IBS? You have all these lesions and cysts all up high where your pain is.
Me: (laughing) Oh honey, I'm a woman. Women aren't allowed to exist for a GI doc unless they have IBS. You think *male relative with lots of GI stuff that could easily be pegged as IBS at the same hospital* is ever told he has IBS?
Hubby: No.
Me: Correct! You've earned your gender bias identification badge! Of course HE doesn't have IBS but us wimmin folk, we're nothing without it. IBS is how I know I exist as a woman.
