One teacher allowed girls bathroom breaks without a question but not guys and we thought it was bc girls can't hold pee in since they don't have dicks.

If you can't tell sex ed doesnt exist in this part of the world

Hell that's not even sex ed but anatomy ig

Don't be silly. It's because most of them don't have balls, the place where pee is stored, so it goes right through them

Wait, what’s the reason?

Every so often, girls need to release evil demons within them or else they'll be consumed by hellfire. Everybody knows this.

This explains everything. The reason I never saw her after the first date is because she was consumed by evil demons ☹️

Period flow can happen without warning, and even if there is a warning, it's not usually something that girls are comfortable enough with to want to announce the reason in front of a classroom.

It's not like you want to announce diarrhea either

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago

I liked your comment myself, but I wished period was more normalized and not seeing as something "disgusting" or "embarrassing"

[–] [email protected] 23 points 10 months ago (3 children)

I don’t get diarrhea every 4 weeks. Do you?

[–] [email protected] 52 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

No it's more frequent than that

Lucky you not having IBD or Crohns

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

Yep... I was about to say "Oh just watch me try not to!"

Eh depends on how explosive it is, those nearby may deserve a warning

Then why is it called menstruation and not womenstruation? (β•―Β°β–‘Β°οΌ‰β•―οΈ΅ ┻━┻

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Why are they called women and not wowomen?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Oh that! I thought it was still something about pee I don’t know because of the context πŸ˜„

[–] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago

That's not a sex ed thing, that's just blatant misandry. So what if boys don't get periods, they still have to pee!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 10 months ago

New theory dropped: pee is stored in the dick

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago

well the pee is stored in the balls, girls don't have that extra reservoir
