On this I sympathize with you women. When God distributed the biological difficulties of life he did not distribute them equally between men and women; women got the worst end of the deal. But you do get to live longer; women have higher life expectancies than men.Quote:

Hadn't looked at this thread in awhile. I see we're on to the dreaded period.
This reminded me of a friend of mine in high school who used to refer to it as "riding the crimson wave." She's an actress, and so she's got a real flare for the dramatic. One day there was an older male teacher who didn't want to let her out of class to use the bathroom and she said in this huge stage voice in front of the whole class "but Mr. So and so, I am riding the crimson wave!" The sad part was that he didn't get it at first, so she spent like five minutes painstakingly explained the euphemism (without ever once just using the word "period") while the whole class just fell over laughing. When the poor teacher finally got what she was talking about his entire bald head turned bright red, which didn't help matters any.Quote:

I could see this happening to me! I would have been stumped too. :lol: And then I would have turned red. :blush:Quote:

Women are expected to go to work and come home and prepare dinner and iron their husband's shirts (because men would just wear wrinkled shirts to work -- they don't know that you're not supposed to do that). And the moodiness is not pleasant --- we don't like it! I don't think men would be pleasant if they were in pain like that. And I am quite tired of men making PMS/period jokes. :flare:

Starts singing "Andrew, He's only got three balls" throughout the rest of the night:rolleyes:

I usually have a violent mood swing straight after a kind of "Wow, I look so attractive" sort of mood swing, which I now attribute to the fertility thing I mentioned earlier.
But, as my mother would sayAnd it's true. We just need to find our own ways of coping with it.Quote:

True, but at least it's somewhat avoidable and not a regular thing.Quote:

true true:nod: well as far as hurts alot couldnt tell how far it is thoughQuote:

Well, thing is- men get hurt when they get hit in their crotch.. Women get hurt when their hit in their chest.. They are to some level, sensitive... And guys, just imagine an orage coming out of you crotch area to an unimaginably small opening... That's about the equivalent of girls undergoing childbirth... Yes, we did get the crappy side of anatomy... Just imagine the embarassment of having a red stain through your clothes as compared to having a stain coz you jacked off because of an old bag.... That would be equivalent.. almost....
I mean, it IS normal but guys don't have to be such dicks about it... [ haha ]
On that note, I have a very strong case of PMS everytime my period nears... One time I even choked my classmate out of frustration, other times I'd just be all moody... Then other times I'd be ecstatic adn sooo happy.... Hormonal imbalance paired with reactive insanity = One crazy teenager...
Think about the orage part guys...
Were you having PMS while writing that post? :DQuote:
