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.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 10 months ago

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

Menstruation.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Then why is it called menstruation and not womenstruation? (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

[–] [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 😄
