Toonraider 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I think they're just faking it to get extra sympathy and some slack for a few days a month. I had a nosebleed that lasted for three hours one time, I didn't cry about it. 14590[/snapback] jesus wept! When you are old enough we will explain these things to you. As for your nose bleed, are you after another one? 14597[/snapback] Calm down dear! Whats the matter, time of the month? 14601[/snapback] LOL. fortunately i dont really get any problems with PMT, only trouble i experience is my breasts swell to twice the bloody size and i can tell you, its bloody uncomfortable 14616[/snapback] So nothing bad then! 14620[/snapback] matter of opinion, you try it!! As for running, thats out of the question 14621[/snapback] Try it, i'd never leave the house!!! You don't need a running partner do you? 14626[/snapback] Only if you happen to be a large sports bra! 14628[/snapback] I can try!!! 14640[/snapback] This would do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mags 1 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Face it- they're just threatened by the fact that we bleed for a week and still survive, when for them a 3 hour nose bleed is major trauma requiring bucket loads of sympathy and a few 'you're dead hard man!' comments when they manage to get it to trickle down a bit.

Steve 0 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I have decided to be serious in this thread because I guess I've seen legitimate pain and problems from periods. I have never known a girl that uses period pain as a way to get sympathy. Maybe because I have been involved with girls that have had an underlying pathology that has caused them extra grief, or maybe because I try to not associate with girls that can only be described as batshit insane that would fake it like that, but I think it's definitely an unfair generalisation to say that it's all a sympathy ploy. I think that guys in general have such a limited understanding as to what a girl is actually going through because they seem to have an irrational fear of the word "period". Am I on my high horse over this? You're damn right, because I have some close friends that have real problems that they have to go through every month just because, for them, that's life.

I dread every month and can understand how women can become clinically depressed over problems with periods. I think guys in general have minimal understanding of periods and their symptoms. "Periods" is a word to be whispered about and sniggered over, and used as a lame joke as in the case of this thread. Thankfully not all blokes are that ignorant and I have no qualms about discussing such a subject with anyone. I'm also lucky enough to know blokes who are aware of the kind of problems I have/have had in the past and can discuss it with me, ask me how I'm doing, and in the case of this week just turn up out of the blue with a nice gesture on the back of the fact that they know how fucking miserable and down I felt. But as Steve said: That's life. We still get up in the morning, go to work and just fucking get on with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 My Mrs has terrible periods...bleeds like a harpooned whale...but she's never used it as an excuse for anything. There might be some lasses who use it as a sick day, but probably in the same way anyone tries to get out of work or make an excuse for being late...it just happens to be a good one.

Pathetic! 14647[/snapback] aye, but if the male was reading the map, don't you think you'd go staight from A to B instead of touring the whole country before you find you're destination , unfortunatly women can't drive either so its the lesser of 2 evils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gejon 2 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I completely agree that periods must be a real f*cking sh*t deal and women do get horrible period pains BUT they do like to make out anything wrong with them is 10x worse than anything a man will ever experience! I will give you childbirth as squeezing a big solid one out me arse has almost ha me in tears before but anytime a man is under the weather an just not feeling too great women always do the "man cold" line, as soon as they have a cold they are "close to death" and it is always a worse cold than the bloke suffered 2 weeks ago "apparently" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think men do generally feel they have flu when they only have a cold though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Barrack Road Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 (edited) For me, it wasn't so much the pain as the uncontrollable vomiting that was a bit of a problem. I have not so fond memories of vomiting in a carrier bag on the Metro (with holes in it so it dribbled out of the bag) and having to run off the Metro to vomit in the bin at every station. Not nice to have similar episodes once a month. Surreal reading an MP talking about period pains like. Edited May 7, 2010 by Barrack Road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
