Feminists today complain about our lack of progress, but they have no idea how far we have come.

(Switching to my finger-wagging old lady voice…)

When I was an impressionable young lass in the days of lore, women were told to give themselves semen facials.

Yep, you read that right. The late editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan, Helen Gurley Brown, told her readers to smear semen on their faces to get that youthful glow. And I believed her. Many women did.

Ok, let’s nip this one in the de-evolution bud. I certainly don’t want to be responsible for semen facials becoming the next TikTok beauty trend.

Not only will semen do nothing for your pores, but it can also infect you with an STD if it gets into mucus membranes — eyes and mouth. Then there’s human seminal plasma hypersensitivity (HSP) — an allergic reaction to the proteins in sperm that affects roughly 40,000 American women. Explaining those itchy hives to your dermatologist is a conversation you don’t want to have. (Not a personal reference. No, really. This time it is not.)
