What’s it like being a ‘clam-reproducing’ woman?

When I was growing up, I was told that I had to be “strong and muscular” to be a female.

I thought I was going to be the next Mary-Jane or a Sarah Connor, the role models.

I had a lot of fun with it, but the idea of a “clam” didn’t really cross my mind.

I’m a huge fan of the term “cricket” and “pitch” for “the sport”, so when I heard “cram” and a “reproduction” made the news, it was like: Wow!

I’m on the radar!

I have been “crawling” in my 20s and 30s, trying to keep fit, trying not to look like a “slob”, trying not do any of those things that girls do.

I do a bit of lifting and stuff but I’m really into a bit more physical exercise.

I have to be flexible and strong.

My body has changed and I don’t know how to adapt.

I’ve been training to be stronger and faster, but I don and I’m struggling with that.

I don`t know how I’ll be able to get back to that fitness level if I’m not “crazed”.

I think it would be a shame if I went into it without a plan.

What are your thoughts on the current debate around the word “crap”?

Have you experienced similar reactions to the word before?

What are some of the other terms that you would like to hear be excluded from the lexicon?
