I'm confident that I would be able to.
What am I gonna do if I can't handle it? Kill myself? Haven't done that yet despite going though constant bullshit on a daily basis.
If all of y'all women can handle it on top of all the other b. s. that y'all deal with that aren't period related then yeah, I think I can to.
... you okay, bud?
I have a high pain threshold but no, I couldn’t, and for those girls who deal with endometriosis, I take my hat off to you
Thankyou, @Pinay_ako 😘

My cousin, who is a genius in intelligence like me, once described periods in detail for me. She said while they're somewhat painful, especially when cramping, "most women are just p*ssies about it and need to 'grow some ovaries.'" My cousin, like me, is also a perfectionist and can endure most painful things, mentally or physically, through sheer willpower and stoicism. She claims she's taught her body to not pass gas, as a result.
And when it comes to her period, she says she's made it so that she doesn't feel pain anymore and that she's able to willpower her body into having painless menstrual cycles (she's 27; so that's like 14 years of experience, no?). Although considering I've been in her room before when she wasn't there and saw the box of Lybrel (Norethisterone), I'm guessing it's really that.
Short answer: Yes. If a 5'9", 130 pound blonde can handle them, so can I.
Luckily for you OP, you've only got another year or two left to deal with them! 😂 Kidding.
i think men have it way easier than women.
I'm 26 years old and I'm gonna have to admit that those monthly periods , including the uncomfortableness of wearing a bra really takes a toll on you after many years. Bras are the modern-day form of ancient china foot binding. It never gets comfortable no matter how many years after you wear it, but you just get used to it to the point where it feels odd to be without a bra in public. But at the same time, its the best feeling ever when you don't wear it.
When I was a teenager, I used to suffer from severe painful constipation cramps every time my period came. It was soo awful and torturous. The intensity constipation cramps is much better now but constipation still happens to me almost every month. Upon the magical month where I don't get constipation, I usually feel relieved. As I've entered my mid 20s, my vaginal cramps got more and more painful. To the point where it feels tortuous to do any sort of physical activity such as walking, going up the stairs, carrying a heavy schoolbag. Having to scrub sheets, mattresses, clothes every month to get rid of blood isn't fun either. Neither is wasting money on buying expensive bras, pads, new underwear every year. Over a lifetime, these costs add up to a lot of money.
being a man is significantly easier than being a woman. You are typically more comfortable physically, less to worry about things such as getting raped, drug rape, being attacked. And an added bonus, men don't even need to go through labor to have children. Men don't even need to give up their careers to have children.
men have it easier than women SIGNIFICANTLY
Could handle it as long as we have a "man cave" to get away from people. I actually perform better after pain or illness, so maybe I'd be better. But I can see why my women have a hard time. I've learned how this works and so I'm extra accomdating.
the biggest challenge seems to be the hormonal/emotional swing and ensuing chaos it creates when the person is not handled with understanding support. Imagine a reverse scenario where guys testosterone spikes! it be a very bloody planet...
They wouldn’t know what they are in for in some cases. I’ve been found in fetal positions unable to speak in so much pain in the past. Especially the combo estrogen/migraine and bad cramping day. Pain rotates from head to lower back to cervix. God awful.
OK, my early periods were uncomfortable. But unbearable? I had those cramps for a few hours at least one day of the five. I didn't have headaches or feel like punching anyone. I felt like I had a mild version of the flu for that first day. Sometimes it was bad enough to take a day off from school.
But, by high school, the cramps had lessened significantly and my menstrual period was simply an inconvenience and messy.
I realize there are women who have far worse symptoms, but how many women do? Do you have percentages?
I think most guys could handle this, just as most women do.
I get joint pain often. I get stiff easily. Indigestion easily. And I have very irritable skin. So plenty of rashes that can be triggered by anything from contact with certain plastics to contact with dog hair, or even an unpleasant wood grain sensation can lead to dermatitis. I break out rather easily too.
And if I eat something unknowingly containing barley, I can get intense headaches, horrible bloating and cramps, lack of concentration, and boils all over my skin.
So the simple way to not be able to relate to your scenario, is to avoid McDonald's "food" and most gas station "food," and I'm usually good to go. And to be mindful of what surfaces I touch.
Aanndd i just woke up bleeding this morning, lol. My periods have gotten better. Before, i used to get sick. They'd last 10 days (7 days heavy bleeding, 3 days light), I'd have nasuea, diarrhea, back pain, terrible cramps.
Now it lasts for 5 days with cramps. Pain isn't as intense and i don’t cry anymore, lol. I think if men had them from the beginning they'd be fine. But if they randomly had it for a week they'd freak out lol.
I’m already sore, hurting and have muscle pain/back pain and muscle cramps from my job and often get bruised and or cut on the job so *shrugs*
nothing would change still have to go into work.
granted I’ve seen some periods so bad it’s bedridden some women from the pain those I probably couldn’t handle but your average period? I could probably deal with it.
but at the end of the day none of know what it’s like so we couldn’t really answer it genuinely. We’re only guessing.
Guys have done those period experiments and said it was quite painful for them. I don't think they would like bleeding from their penis every month lol But I think some men do underestimate the pain of periods and childbirth sometimes cause they've never experienced it. I think if men had to go throw birth a lot of them would say hell no lol
But women have more tolerance to pain than men as per build
Bc your plumbing system is not well as men's
@Aakash_Hangargi ugh yes it is, you would probably have to go to the er cause sometimes we pass huge clumps of blood and uterine tissue through our vagina. That would get stuck in your urethra and would be quite painful, you would risk getting an infection. Our vagina and cervix can pass all that so I don't know what you mean by our plumbing system not being that good?
I meant in general , even while peeing men can adjust the pressure so if required i think with our system it would be much easier to clean the internal and it will be as per our things it doesn't have to be exactly the way you gals get periods
Lol wtf i. Thinking 🤯👻🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣 and why 🤣🤣🤣
@Aakash_Hangargi I can adjust the pressure when I go.
Men have more hold is all what i am saying in event of pressure men are able told it but since you don't have the ding dong your hooha will open up the. Pour
Yawn, I've been injured much worse than that over the years, so ya, a non issue.
Plus I could use that as an excuse to be an ass hat to people for a week every month.
It's the price you pay to be able to have kids.
Nothing men can do about it.
We didn't design men or women.
Plus we have to put up with women for that week every month.
By “injured” do you mean somebody ripped your abdomen open, filled it with bricks and then stabbed you repeatedly for 3 days whilst you went about your daily life? Because that’s the equivalent.
The moodiness, I don’t get. There isn’t a reason to be nasty to anyone.
. You aren’t injured in the same way every month….( or are you?) do you bleed from it for 4 straight days every month?
Life doesn’t stop for a period, they are what they are. Some people have it worse than others….. but they fucking suck.
There is no need to roll your eyes at it. Although, I get why you would roll your eyes at the question ( no offence meant to the OP )
.
@MrsTurkleton yes you have it so bad, I don't know how you are able to even get out of bed every day knowing that this will be happening to you over and over until menopause.
Then other things will start to happen to your body, hot flashes, hormone imbalance, your hair will start to fall out, all sorts of fun things.
Women don't have a hold on being the only ones that have bad things happening to them.
I had a 1st LT who was trying to make points so he could go home early so he took every dumb ass mission that came along.
Every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every month for over 49 years I am constantly reminded of every time I ended up getting pieces of metal inside of me that I didn't have when I woke up that day be it from our own chopper or from who we were trying to kill before they killed us.
Or we got shot down again and I had to save his stupid ass while trying to hold my insides in with my other hand.
So, you will have to pardon me if you aren't getting the sympathy from me that you thought you may deserve because you have it so bad 3 days a month.
I would kill for the chance to feel this way for only 3 days a month.
But I try not to complain because I know so many that never came home because no matter how hard I tried it was never enough.
No matter how bad you have it, there will always be someone that has it way worse than you do.
That is why I get up every day, tell the lord thank you for seeing me through to another day and go make the most of it no matter what happens or how I am feeling.
So yes, we all have it rough at times for many different reasons. We all have good days and not so good days, some are great, some really suck.
But life is short. It doesn't seem so when you are young, but as you get older it gets shorter each and every day, so you get up and hopefully learn to make the most of every day.
Experience makes it tollerable and like women men would have high tollerabce for pain
And i am sure pain would make it a competition who can paint the wall red who has the longest range
Might shower on some ladies 😂😂😂😂
And in older days there was a trend to write letters in blood that would come back again 😆
Lol they would drench women in blood bath
Haha whose up for period sex let see now you gals would find it gross or not 👻.
Gives new definition to period sex lol filling it up with blood
Then again if i imagine more
Let see if sperms resided in a womens womb already
Then the guys during periods had sex and eggs were passed i believe women would be bearing children like cats 5 and 6 at a time 😂😂😂
Whose ready for it now 😁!!!
I have a high poison tolerance so I'm sure I'd be fine.
That being said, if blood started shooting out of my dick I can tell you right now I would not be going to work until that stopped. And it's crazy that women have to. Keep that shit at home. Work from home that's what I'd do. Wait until that's over.
I will have to recuse myself from this question due to not ever experiencing a period.
However, I have had multiple girlfriends over the course of my life, so I've been along for the Pony Express often. My experience is that every woman is different when it comes to their period (heavy, light, moodiness, no change in personality, cramps, cravings, etc.) it varies widely.
Apparently I went through something that is far more painful than childbirth. At least reported by those have gone through both. Having said that, I'd prefer to avoid it in the future since it was painful to take a shit. I think that, if I had to, I could go through periods if I had to. It's all about accepting the pains and such that you cannot change.
🙃 I’ve been doing for that almost 30 years…day in and day out working my way towards the Joy of Menopause. What do you think we are putting up with…with you women…24/7 Effects of hormonal cyclical fluctuations…conjoined with momentarily Pleasure scattered here-and-there
At least if it was my Body I would have Control over it…Now it’s a life of Secondary Effects. What some people call being at the wrong place at the wrong time, perpetually
😎
It seems to be something all women hate so I don't see why I would welcome handling it.
Now if it was something I can't change I would find a way not to complain too much and live with it so yeah it would be "handled" but it's not something I would be looking forward to that's for sure
No! I don't know how my wife, mother, and sister go through it and women in general! Though I can't feel the pain and symptoms, I can tell it's not a good feeling. I remember when I was 25 and my younger sister, 18 then, stayed with me because she went to college. I remember she called at 2 am on my cell phone and asked if I could come to her room because she couldn't move. I thought she was calling me to kill a spider or a bug, but she was lying down in a fetal position crying. She then told me she was on her period, and she asked if I could go to the store and bring her pads. I did, and that whole night she was crying from the pain. I felt sorry for her.
That’s terrible. I hope it’s not like that every time for decades.
Both men and women have their bio determinative crosses to bear. Men have the burden of being expected to be the primary bread winners and the muscle in the family and that is no walk in the park either.
Also having to shave your face every day isn't exactly a zero on the scale of unpleasant physical burdens.
However, I will give you that having to go through a period every month is one hell of a bad trip. To be honest I would probably consider suicide.
I have always imagined that periods would be like having my balls squeezed for a week... Doesn't sound fun but I wouldn't have a choice but to deal with it. And not all women get painful periods, so I'm assuming not all men would either. Maybe I would get lucky.
Pretty much. Yes.
@dustybiker You have my sympathy.
@sirderpsalot123 Thanks
@dustybiker Is it that bad everytime?
For me, yes. Right through teens and early twenties until I went on birth control. Lucking it was one that helped.
How did “lucky” turn into “lucking”? Auto correct smh
@dustybiker I still read it as "lucky" the first time. I wouldn't have noticed, lol.
I’m having more typos than usual this week, for various reasons. It’s just bugging me personally lol
Is it because of your neck? 🙁
No. TY. Neck is better (thank you resistance bands)
Honestly, if they were women, they would have to get used to it, and deal. Just like every other girl does.
@KatherineJ exactly what I was thinking
