Periods are really not that bad. At worst, theyāre an inconvenience. Youāre a little uncomfortable, your stomach might hurt every now and then, you could feel a bit down or cranky, but thatās it. Iām sick to death of hearing people complain about the unbearable pain and agony they suffer through every month. If your period and the symptoms that come with it are truly so bad that you are literally unable to move or are throwing up, GO TO THE DOCTOR. Your period is not compulsory, you can go on the pill or other medications to control it or block it altogether. And quit campaigning that women should get the days of their period off school or work - women have been getting on with their lives, period or no period, literally since the beginning of man. Also, stop complaining about ruined clothes - BLOOD RINSES OUT IN COLD WATER.
Lol. Ahahahahaā¦
you tell that to the people who have PCOS
āIT DOESNāT HAPPEN TO ME, SO CLEARLY THESE OTHER WOMEN ARE LYING ABOUT THEIR HORRIBLE AGONY!ā
This is hilarious.
And yeah, why donāt you come say that to someone with PCOS? Weād have some lovely words.
Five bucks says this was written by a dude. Because, holy crap, I canāt believe another chick would be that insensitive about something a friend of hers most likely goes through.
My period a few months ago was literally so horrible that I had to crawl on the floor to get around the house and I was sweating because of how much pain I was in, even WITH STRONG PAINKILLERS. Wow.
āYour period is not compulsory, you can go on the pill or other medications to control it or block it altogetherā EXCEPT SO MANY POLITICIANS ARE TRYING TO KEEP US FROM GETTING THE MEDICINE THAT HELPS US BECAUSE THEY THINK IT PROMOTES PROMISCUITY AND BAD MORALS. Why the FUCK do you think that women fight so hard for birth control pills? And for it to be covered by health insurance? Not only is it our fucking choice on if we want to have sex or not, but without birth control, I am in AGONY for 3-4 days out of 7 and cannot go past an hour without needing to go to the bathroom to change things.Ā
Iām lucky enough that birth control controls my period. I donāt have any conditions like PCOS that make my period worse, Iām just on the end spectrum of āyour period is normal, but its gunna suckā For others, they need birth control so that it doesnāt feel like someoneās ripping their uterus out and gnawing on it and instead feels more like someone just stabbing them repeatedly so that they can THEN go on heavy painkillers to try and deal with the pain. Also, side note: most side effects of heavy painkillers make you seriously groggy and they donāt want you to drive.Ā Another side note, my roommate has epilepsy. Now i donāt know jack squat about epilepsy, but sheās told me that sometimes her cramps are so bad that it can trigger a seizure. Sheās woken up a couple of times from the pain, only to have a seizure and throw up. If you knew this was a possibility, would you go outside where this could potentially happen in front of a lot of people/on stairs/WHILE DRIVING or would you take a day off and do your work at home where you can better control it? Periods donāt just cause cramps and whatever, they can trigger other conditions to act up as well WHICH CAN BE SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS.
Pretend women have completely free access to birth control and its covered by health insurance. My roommate canāt use traditional birth control because it completely negates her seizure meds, so thereās drug interactions that women have to deal with too. What if youāre allergic to the medicine? What if it causes even WORSE side effects than the symptoms you had before?Ā
Iām not even going to bother explaining how āfeeling a little crankyā begins to cover it. Periods mean hormone surges which means various mood swings as your body balances everything out to make sure that your uterus is functioning properly. Hormone surges affect moods. Some girls get more of a surge than others. Some girls are just more sensitive to these hormonal changes than others.Ā
Most of the time us āfeeling a little crankyā is us flabbergasted at the absolute ignorance that people like you have and the rage at the āoh youāre mad, you must be on your periodā like our anger is only justified if weāre on our period and isnāt valid (but thats a whole other issue)
As for blood rinses out in cold water? How about when you leak onto your jeans in the first hour of school? Are you suggesting that I go to the bathroom and rinse out my jeans on cold water, and then go to class the rest of the day with a WET CROTCH? Because Iām not gunna have enough time to sit with my pants under the hand dryer until they dry.Ā Blood doesnāt even always rinse out in cold water, more just rinses out in cold water. It depends on the fabric, and you have to rinse it RIGHT AWAY. Most of the time girls wake up with their periods, after the blood has been there for HOURS. So thereās underwear, pants and potentially sheets stained because you didnāt even know your period even started. Donāt even get me started on the fact that in order to keep the blood clean and off clothes is that we have to buy expensive pads or tampons, which are either basically diapers that you have to sit in and feel like you pissed yourself all day and worry about leaking, or a wad of cotton that you shove up in your vagina and worry about leaking. Ā And yes, women have been āgetting on with lifeā for as long as weāve had periods, because weāre BADASSES. We are TOUGH and we are STRONG. But women in the past have also wanted to take breaks due to periods. Donāt try and fool yourself into thinking that in the past women were just like āOh it appears iāve gotten my periodā because a spot of red appeared on their undergarments AND THATS IT. No. They went through the same thing but most of the time had to be like āwell FUCKā and tough out the day, and then cry from the pain in private. They would want a break then just as much as we do now.Ā Before making sweeping statements like this, why donāt you crack open a human repro book and actually look at the female side of it, and all of the problems and complications of periods that are DOCUMENTED.
And if you are a female instead of a male, OP, count yourself blessed that you think periods are easy to deal with. You could have had it so much worse.
Reblogging again because YO^^^
friendly reminder that not only women have periods
- your neighborhood trans* owner of a vagina
Reblogging again for vanity-heightsā reminder
This reminds me of one night at my old job where I was talking to some other females about periods. I mentioned how most of the time my cramps are so bad I throw up. One of them looked at me all snootily and said, āCramps canāt make you throw up.ā
Wanted to laugh in her face before punching it in.
this doesnt even need a captionā¦ every girl knows what this isā¦
Acurate.
Actually today.
i will never not reblog. its too accurate
wait do girls really go in those weird half standing positions and stand on their heads type deal???
We really do tho!
Things nobody ever tells you about vaginas, so you have to google it to find out itās perfectly normal:
Vaginal chemistry being acidic enough to bleach your black underwear.
waitā¦ so *thatās* what happens?!?
I THOUGHT IT WAS STAINS NO WONDER THEY WERENāT WASHING OFF
holy shit i was so embarrassed about this
Why girls stress over periods
The constant fear of bleeding through clothes
The constant cramps
Having to change pads/tampons every 2-4 hours
Having to deal with mood swings
Having to deal with boys going āOh someones on their periodāĀ
When you stand up its like a waterfall from your vagina
Craving food to calm you down
The constant fear that you smell of blood even though you dontĀ
CRAMPS
Feeling over emotional
CRAMPS
CRAMPS
FUCKEN CRAMPS
YOU MEAN I DONāT ACTUALLY SMELL LIKE BLOOD?!
Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE?
So I woke up this morning in a pool of my own blood.
Wait, let me back up.
Hi, my name is Cara and Iām a 21 year old woman. Every 28 days, give or take, I have a period. And it fucking sucks. Today, was one of those where I take from the 28 day cycle. I wasnāt due for another period for at least a week, but considering that my period is pretty much permanently irregular, I get to wake up a lot of mornings in a pool of my own blood. Hmm. Lovely.
I then proceed to dump my sheets, my underwear, and my pajamas in my laundry room in a tub filled with cold water, with the hopes that this time I havenāt ruined them permanently.
What next? Well, a shower of course! To wipe off the smell of rotting blood from my body! Squeaky clean and towel fresh I have about a two minute window before the volcano of blood begins to erupt again from my vagina.
What will it be today? A piece ofĀ chlorinated toilet paper cardboard with a string that I get to shove up my hole wherein the blood will sit and rot until the next time I can shove another piece of chlorinated cardboard up the same hole? Or, a plastic lined toilet paper diaper attached to my underwear that causes rug burn to my vaginal area when I walk? Well the later requires less coordination, and it is early, so I guess Iāll be sitting in a period diaper today. The best ever.
Of course, I could always just get birth control, and lessen this whole shit. But 1) I canāt afford it 2) I canāt ask my dad to pay for it because, guess what? Just like the men who run my government, my father correlates birth control with sexual promiscuity! Thus, sitting on my rotting blood, undergoing severe cramps that have on more than one occasion caused me to black out, it is! (Not that birth control is such a walk in the park either, our bodies have to learn to deal with the hormones and other chemicals and consequences that birth control entails.)
Then, I get to go to class, where I have to pretend that I am not a leaky faucet of blood and tissue. I get to sit in Calculus, and if heaven forbid, I need an additional pad, I have to be discrete about it, so as not to offend the menās gentle sensibilities to the fact that I am the oneĀ dropping tissues and blood from my body through my vagina.Ā Ā
I once asked a male to take me to the pharmacy so that I could pick up (GASP) pads, or as we like to call it āfeminine productsā (again, so as not to offend the gentlemenās overly sensitive natures) and had him equate me talking about my period to him talking about his erections.
ARE
YOU
FUCKING
KIDDING
ME
No.
This is nothing like your fucking erectionās. I donāt derive any enjoyment from this. I canāt mentally control any ounce of this entire process. I canāt masturbate my problem away. My period does not endĀ in orgasm.
It stays. For at least five days in my case. Draining blood out of my body. Causing me severe cramps, making me irritable -not because Iām uncomfortable (which mind you, would be reason enough) - but because my hormones are all over the place, bloating me up to two sizes larger than I normally am, I have to actively fight not to smell like a fish market, and on top of that, you want me to be hush-hush about this? Because itās icky for you?
And this is not an attack on that one man, this is an attack on ALL MEN who on top of sitting on their throne of gender privilege want me to stay quiet and be content about the fact that five days out of every month I get to undergo this happiest of joys.
And then, these very sameĀ men have the audacity to get annoyed because we donāt want to listen toĀ their bullshit complaining about traffic? Or whatever other meaningless storyĀ they happen to tell us while our bodies are actively fighting against us? Then we get to be the butt ofĀ their tired-ass jokes? Sorry, I am most certainly not sorry.
I repeat NO. I say women come out of the period closet and say, āYou know what, this happens to me. Every. Fucking. Month. And itās terrible. LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY MORNING.ā Because the truth is, if I live in a country where Viagra is covered by medical insurance, but birth control isnāt, I can no longer keep denying that I live in a country that is actively waging a war on women. And if I live in a country that is actively waging war on my sex, the least I am going to do is break patriarchal social propriety to inform anyone and everyone of the shit biological process I was BLESSED enough to be born into.
Hello, my name is Cara, Iām a 21 year old woman, and today Iām on my period. Let me fuckingĀ tell you about it.
hello yes this is a good post
I donāt think they heard you in the back
sorry, not sorry, but I couldnāt not repost this. I hate that when I want to complain about these discomforts I just get the uncomfortable silence orĀ āeww letās talk about something elseā and yet I sit and listen to guys complain about how tough puberty was for them
Preach!

This magical new underwear could replace tampons and padsĀ
Menstruation is a natural part of life, but it has long been and continues to be stigmatized. Three women have come up with a way to change all that. Twin sisters Radha and Miki Agrawal and friend Antonia Dunbar innovated THINX underwear, which completely eliminates the need for tampons or pads and could also help in need in the developing world.
No more pads???
Clear your mind here
Reblog a million times
Thatās it thatās the whole show.
How long did this take to make?
