Funny/cute ways to refer to your period?

i have a friends with benefits situation happening and so far I haven't had to turn him down... but this weekend I'll be on my period and I just feel like that's a little too intimate for us to have sex during that time. what's a way to let him know this without being a major turnoff. I don't want to just say no, I want him to know I'd really like to but can't because of my period.

  • 1. Maybe he doesn't mind that you're on your period? I know my boyfriend doesn't. It's not like blood is gushing out of you. Also, condoms. Just lay a towel down under your ass when you start, it's not really messy... but when he pulls out (when he's finished, or to finish) sometimes other stuff drips out and yeah... Sucks to clean up.

    2. Just say, "I'm really sorry it's kinda 'that time of the month'." There's nothing embarrassing or particularly gross about it. And if he's grossed out by you saying that he's too immature to be having sex to begin with. That's middle schooler sh*t right there.

    3. You eventually need to have a conversation about what sexual things are okay vs not okay to do while you are on your period, what you are alright with, what he is alright with and what each of you is not alright with. Do it now, it'll be good for the two of you.

    • Best Answer! Nice job!

    • Agreed. (+1)

  • Hmm maybe call it your "lady sickness" or something that he'll get but not like I'M ON MY PERIOD, you know? And he should be expecting it if you're a girl and he knows you're not on the pill so if he gets all weird about it then you might need to find someone a little more mature.

    • hahahahaha..took you awhile...but ...in the end..you laid it down Lady! Thumbs Up!

    • lol

  • There is no cute way to say you have your period. Just straight up and say that you have your period. Or if you really don't want to say it, just say it's that time of month. I've said to guys that I was on my period, and it was totally fine and no big deal.

  • cute is a word that does not fit into the sentence that contains period. Unless its, "My period is over, so I can be cute again." And that is pushing the line.

    Personally, to avoid the phrase, "bleeding out the vag" I use the term "broken." As in, this ride is broken, please try again in 3-5 days.

  • periods aren't funny nor cute. Just tell him straight up. Or really, he will probably know if you just say you can't have sex this weekend. WE aren't THAT clueless.

    • naw..you are really smart..me? Really stupid.../:

  • "My Aunt just came in her red car...she'll be gone in a few days."

    -I have my red light.

    -I have my friend...so we can't do anything :(

    Haha those are the things I usually say.

  • to me if you are sleeping with someone, you should be able to discuss these things.

    • <3

    • I agree 100%. I don't understand questions like these, because you should be able to tell you sex partner things like that.

    • yup, :)

  • Just say "it's that time of the month", he'll get the hint.

  • Bloody Marry just came to town and she's planning on staying for a week :/

  • ketchup days :D

  • Aunt Flo's in town for the week...

    • lolli...I am sure that you could do better than this...o.O...<3<3<3=D

    • O_o what's wrong with this?

    • well...nothing "wrong" with it..just thought..that ..maybe? might be more creative? sigh eh.I ain't either Babe...(:

    • Show All
  • You can still have sex when its that time of the month or Aunt Flo is in town...if you are horny and he's good with it...have sex!

  • Red Tide, Crimson Tide, The Bloody Monthly, The Wound That Won't Heal, Mary Queen of Clots.

    Or you could lip synch to that annoying Andy Dick song "My Vagina is Bleeding".

    • Here's what you do: load your i-pod with music suitable for a striptease/sexy dance routine. Play it for him while you strip / dance. At some point, you want him tied town, arms bound at his sides - reclining, with you straddling his face... your crotch inches from his face... as you writhe to the music, you slowly work your hands down to your hips and suddenly rip away your panties - exposing the gore concealed within! (Cue the shower scene music from the old Hitchcock movie "Psycho")
