Just take birth control and skip the last week. :D I am sure that isn't too healthy though.

*a teleportation device (for those embarressing/awkward moments of any kind when you just have to leave RIGHT NOW)

*a way for us ladies to control the length of our hair by pumping our left arm up and down to make it shorter, or pulling on the hair to make it longer again (i.e. the "Sparkles" dolls from the '80s)

*Magic Nails- rub a wet "wand" on your toenails and fingernails and you have an instant manicure/pedicure just like your dolls used to have.

*cute shoes that are actually COMFORTABLE enough to wear for at least 8 hours on your feet each day

*an MMR (no, I'm NOT talking about the medical invention- this, girls, is a MAN MIND-READER. You know his intentions before he even opens his mouth. You immediately know he's thinking "I'm looking for a fling" versus what you HOPE he's thinking, "I'm looking for a wife." Also available in the opposite-gender version, the WMR, so you can tell if your sorority sister is being honest about your new haircut/outfit/etc.

*heat insulated invisible pants- to wear with skirts and dresses in cold weather so you can stay fashionably warm.

*sunglasses with movie-showing capabilities so you can fake interest in any conversation, or quote smooth movie lines to make a conversation more interesting.

I'll think of more later......

blankets you can take into the shower, that will absorb water and keep you warm. also, a pillow that won't mildown so i can sleep in the shower. Ever since I was like five I've wanted to just fall asleep in the shower.

I was thinking of a similar device...I'd really like to know what this girl thought of me tonight. Oh to be Mel Gibson in that "What women want" movie....I think that is the name of it, but i"m way wasted and have to be up at 715 in the morning...GO ME!!!!

Actually, doctors say that it is ok to do that every once in a while and won't cause any damage.

Another friendly tip from Cosmo!

Don't get "hooked" on it though - it may be nice to have no periods - but you never know the end results.

One of my cousins got married a year ago to the man she had been dating since high school - so they were dating for like 8 years. She started on birth control, and b/c her doctor said it was ok to do, she continuously took the pill. So for almost 7 years she skipped her period. Well after they got married she went off the pill and ever since then they have been trying to get pregnant. One year of trying and no success :( Some people speculate that the pill could cause you to go infertile if you skip your period for long amounts of time.

ZTAMiami 11-01-2002 11:29 AM

I definitely don't think anyone should mess with there pills on a regular basis. If you do it once in a while so as to not get your period on vacation thats fine. Just be careful

I can definitely use these inventions, especially the shoes and heat insulated invisible pants - I get cold rather quickly. :D

You'd run out of hot water..

So maybe invent a hot water heater that doesn't run out:D

Steeltrap 11-01-2002 12:47 PM

Not an invention per se,
 
But how about "cycle days" at work or school?

I mean, three to four days a woman can take off, with pay, that you can use to get your s**t together. I mean, what good are you in the workplace when you're all binchy and stuff?
:p

My friend and I were actually thinking about developing a funnel type contraption that ladies can use when they go to the doctors and have to pee in a cup. God I wish someone would invent that. There is nothing worse than missing the cup and hitting your hand.:mad:

Just use a funnel. You don't need to invent that, just market it. :)

If I remember correctly, if you take the pill regularly (without skipping the last week) for a long period of time, when you get off of it your cycle will be irregular for a while and getting pregnant is difficult. That is why it is suggested that you take the pill for a while, then get off, back on, etc.

I heard that if you go outside a lot at night, you can align your cycle with the phases of the moon. Any of you ladies ever tried that?

No but I've heard that if a group of women who lived together for a period of time, their cycles coinside after a while.....

KappaTarzan 11-02-2002 09:55 AM

optimist, don't sleep in the shower! i'm worried you'll drown...
yes girls who live together DO all get their periods at the same time. i'm convinced the world will be in sync someday...

INVENT A QUICK DRINK THAT MAKES YOU DRUNK! just one :)

sigmagrrl 11-02-2002 10:05 AM

*Something that allows you to stop time

*Pills you swallow and you can speak another language for 8 hours at a time instantly

* Portable lie detector: beeps when someone is lying to you

*A REAL GAY-DAR!

* Pills that actually dissolve body fat, give instant boob lifts, and get rid of cellulite!

*FLYING CARS!

*And this isn't an "invention", but there should be a rule: No one 5'4" and under should be allowed to drive a vehicle taller than them. Sorry, but when I see someone that short driving an EXPEDITION or SUV and they are right against the steering wheel cuz their legs are too short to reach, sorry, you need to go back to a car! IT'S TOO MUCH VEHICLE FOR YOU! I know the Apocolypse is close now that they make an SUV that has a retractable step!!! IF YOU CANNOT GET UP INTO IT, YOU ARE TOO SHORT TO DRIVE IT!!!!!!

Sorry, that's my pet peeve. I've been on the road with WAY too many shitty drivers who cannot see over the hood of the vehicle or PARK THE DAMN THING!!!!!

KappaTarzan 11-02-2002 10:10 AM

hey now!! i'm 5 foot 1 and i sometimes drive my brothers truck, or my dad's expedition... nothing wrong with we short people driving the big cars :) i know my car is rather small though :)
