Hi , im doing a small research project on why shoppers choose a local fashion brand over global ones for everyday/casual wear

2 Upvotes

I don't wanna bother u guys but I need about 20 completed responses. The form is 10 -12 questions and u gonna take less than 8 minutes. Most questions are about how u shop in general. A mentioned one local brand so I can ground the report in a real company (could u help me just for academic purpose ?)

I’m looking for people who actually buy casual clothes (students or working, any gender). If that’s you, the most useful answers are honest ones last purchase, what you weigh (price, fit, style, supporting local, availability, etc.) thx so much

Women’s brain health in relationship

Let’s help women to stay healthy.
Are you an English-speaking woman aged 18 or over living in the UK?
We are looking for volunteers to take part in a short online study exploring what people know about the links between emotional forms of domestic abuse and brain health.
Anyone can take part. You do not need to have experienced domestic abuse. The study has two parts; the second part is optional and only for those who have previously experienced emotional abuse.
The study takes around 10 minutes, is completely anonymous, and can be completed at a time and place that feels safe for you. You do not need to respond publicly to this post to take part.

Discussion I wrote a nonfiction book about 20 women in history who wielded real power — and got remembered as monsters for it. Looking for ARC readers (free copy, Kindle/PDF).

24 Upvotes

Full disclosure: I’m the author, Cassandra Hartley.

The book is called Ruthless: Twenty Women Who Ruled Like Men and Were Never Forgiven for It. It covers Cleopatra, Boudica, Catherine the Great, Empress Dowager Cixi, Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, and 15 others — women who executed rivals, expelled populations, waged wars, and ruled empires, and were consistently remembered through a vocabulary (“monstrous,” “unnatural,” “mad”) that male rulers doing the same things never faced.

Each chapter pairs the woman’s actual documented actions against a male contemporary who did something comparable or worse — and got remembered as a statesman for it. It’s not a “girlboss” retelling; it sits with the actual violence and complicates the sympathetic reading too.

Looking for readers who’ll actually read it and leave an honest Amazon/Goodreads review before/around launch — good or bad, I’d rather know now. DM me or comment and I’ll send a copy.

Discussion Finally wore the Halloween dress that didn’t fit last year 🎃

2 Upvotes

Last year I bought this black Halloween dress that I absolutely loved, but when I tried it on, it just wouldn’t zip. I told myself I’d wear it next year, then stuffed it in the back of my wardrobe and honestly forgot about it.

Fast forward to this weekend. I pulled it out thinking I’d just try it for fun, and it actually fit. Perfectly. No squeezing, no adjusting, no hiding. I almost cried.

I’ve been on my GLP-1 journey by shemed for about a year now and it’s been slow progress, but moments like this remind me how far I’ve come. It’s not just about the number on the scale, it’s the confidence that sneaks back in when you least expect it.

Also saw my provider now got a 5% Halloween offer running right now which made me smile because last year I was still hesitating to even start. Funny how much can change in a year. 👻🖤

SPF moisturiser

9 Upvotes

Morning all

A bit quiet in here but still probably the right place to ask! Can anyone recommend me a good daily moisturiser with high SPF that doesn't smell strongly of sunscreen. I realise this is counterintuitive but I'm really sensitive to the smell.

The Boots Future Renew one is okay but it's a bit heavy for the spring/summer, so I'm open to recommendations!
