Say what you will about the Kardashians and their oversharing tendencies, but I firmly believe there is a silver lining to it all. They may live the good life, with privilege and access we can only dream of, but they've got real-life problems we can empathize withand they're willing to broadcast it to millions, nay billions of people. Putting it all out there like that fuels conversation, which is something I'm not afraid to say I applaud them for.

One new revelation that hits home is Kim's decision to disclose that she might need a hysterectomy, which means having her uterus surgically removed. In the U.S. nearly 500,000 women get them each year for conditions such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, uterine prolapse, and abnormal uterine bleeding. After getting a hysterectomy, a woman can no longer get pregnant.
