Today, at work, I had to explain to my co-manager at work what a period was, after he refused to let an employee go change her tampon. Afterwards, he panicked, saying he thought women made that up so they didn't have to have sex, before trying to send her to the hospital and fainting. We're 24. FML

I'm just speechless. How is this possible for a grown-up man in his twenties?

I know why women would "make it up" to not have sex with him

Anyone who believes this is very gullible.

This is the best thing I've ever read in my life haha I'm dying

What I want to know is how anyone could think that she deserved that? <_ > Can someone explain please.

So he thought all those TV commercials that talk about womens periods were just made up too?

Someone got to tell him that you will not attract sharks too...

Wait...we actually have periods? I thought the monthly bleeding from my ****** meant I was dying, no wonder the doctors at my hospital laugh at me everytime I try to tell them blood is just leaking out of my body!

Yeah. The excruciating backaches, the migraines, the uncontrollable blood loss, the loads of laundry, the exorbitant cost of tampons - all so we don't have to have sex. Who's he been trying to sleep with???

#99 "loads of laundry" You know that's what tampons and pads are for, right?... So you don't bleed over everything you own. I'm sure my period rarely has any effect on how much laundry I need to do.

Accidents happen. There's nothing like waking up in the morning to find your pad has leaked and you now have to wash your clothes and bed linen. Because we all know not to go to bed and sleep with tampons in, don't we girls?

If one is heavy it can leak out of the tampon or pad, normally when you're asleep and can't feel it

120, not all periods are the same. Which is exactly why they have different tampons and pads for those of us with lighter or heavier flows throughout our periods. Heavier flows make keeping yourself and your clothes clean a bit mrre difficult. So, yes, it can easily affect the amount of laundry needed to be done.

#139 - Fair point. I always use products that suit my flow and rarely have accidents but I'm only heavy on the first day (not even super heavy) then medium-light...TMI? Lol. My point is, I shouldn't assume all periods are as easy to manage.

Glad everyone is so predictable. Sometimes the damn things just sneak up on you. Or yeah, you have a heavy one. Or better yet - you're out in the field and there's no where to go! Nothing like leaking into your uniform. They may be camo, but shoot! Btw, Google SoftCups. Those Rock!

Btw 145, Im an old lady & in the med field. Not everyone has a lovely period. Some of us have horror-show-bleed-down-to-your-socks-unpredictable-periods-from-hell. You're a lucky one!

120 - my periods are known to be so heavy I can soak through a tampon, a urine night pad, underwear, pj bottoms, and my bed sheet. Some people are just heavy bleeders. I was heavier when I started. And before you ask, Yasmin is a life saver!
