Re: Ugh. Let's talk about periods

Not sure what would piss you off about this comment. It's totally true.

Re: Ugh. Let's talk about periods

IDK it has a hint of "thankful it's them and not me" to it.

"Sucks to be you, glad I'm not dealing with that" is a pretty common, not always conscious thread in how dudes react to women's problems, and it can get really, really frustrating to hear over and over again.

Herpy was probably just the straw that broke the camel's back, so he's the one who got snapped at for it.

This is so fucking stupid.

"I'm going to ascribe ulterior motives to people expressing sympathy for something I'm going through and get pissed at them for it, even if there's no evidence they had those motives!"

THIS.

No, it doesn't. You're reading shit into it that isn't there.

Backhanded comment in space intended for women about how hard women have it in a reproductive sense, implying that the other half has it better. 'K.

Re: Ugh. Let's talk about periods

But we DO have it hard. We have periods, which suck, and if we want to make a kid we have to carry the fucking thing for 9 months and let it feed off us and destroy our fucking bodies. Oh and the price of our periods finally stopping is going fucking nuts for a couple years and our vaginas getting dry as fuck.

Why are you so upset about that being acknowledged and why is it backhanded to acknowledge it? I'd much rather a guy recognize it's tough than act like it's no big deal and women are just weak and whiny.

But from the looks of things, there's literally no way a man could say it sucks that women have periods without you interpreting it badly, because apparently someone saying "you have it worse than me" is an unforgivable insult.

How fortunate that you can extrapolate everything I would say from the one comment I made! That saves me a lot of time, since I don't have to continue this conversation anymore.

Re: Ugh. Let's talk about periods

[(Anonymous)]

Nowhere in that comment did I say anything about the things you would say to me. Nice deflection, though.

You are an obnoxious creature.

Oh wow that's a negative outlook on having children. I for one loved every second of my pregnancy because it made me much more aware of my body. Giving birth ended in an emergency c-section but I regret nothing about it. Breastfeeding is great because I love eating and I could literally eat twice as much as usual. Aside from that You can use breast milk as a remedy for small cuts and the like, and as a moisturizer. After some initial pain breastfeeding also feels good, and yes,your bobs will change but they'll definitely not become saggy just like that . I actually like my body better now.
For perspective.

Wow you're annoying.

Re: Ugh. Let's talk about periods

Periods do suck, but I can see why someone would feel pissed off. Sometimes I get the feeling it's just plain WORSE to be a woman, and it's depressing, and some people will react to feeling that by being angry. Especially if the person mentioning it is the "better" type of person. I do realize herpy was not trying to be patronizing or rude, though (and I'm not angry at him, I can just get why someone might feel angry).
