Girls, would you hide your period and anything related to it from your boyfriend?

Question

Kind of a weird question for me. It's like, I wouldn't "celebrate" it! I wouldn't brag about it. Honestly, I wouldn't even want to talk about it. But, it happens and if it was a factor for something, like, I didn't want to do something we said we were going to do, I'd be honest. I wouldn't announce "IT'S MY TIME" or anything, but like I'd say, "It's not a good time" or "I'm not feeling up to it" or something.

It's hard because I've not been in that situation but like, I don't think I'd want to tell a boy, "No, 'cause I'm having my period." No way. But I'd sort of hint like I said above and, if he was still clueless, I'd tell him to ask his mom! But, seriously, if he was clueless, I might have to question why I'd be dating a guy who is that clueless. Or maybe he just doesn't have a sister. That's his loss!!!

No, I wouldn't. I share what's going on, it's also a reason why I might be in pain, or why we cannot have sex (I'm not into period sex).
If he cannot handle that, then he cannot handle being with a woman (as @SnakeBoop said).
When we've been together for a while, I'll even have pads at his place as well.

And I can see you asking about friends, yeah, I talk about it with them. Some more than others. my girl friends, I can say when I'm in pain, or something annoying is happening, or I feel bloated etc. Guy friends it's mostly if I'm in pain or we shortly get to the topic.

But mostly I'm pretty open about it. There shouldn't be a taboo about it, so I want to normalize the conversation.

Nah no hiding but there have been a few times that I avoided talking about my period just cause I didn't want to disappoint him that I wasn't pregnant.

Absolutely not. I want to date a MAN, not an immature little boy. Periods are nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed by. Any man knows very well what a period is. Any decent man knows all women have a period and would not be offended to see your products needed for that time. A decent man would have a stash at his place for you in case you need some while staying with him. A decent man would go buy you supplies if you needed them. A decent man would never make fun of you, make you feel disgusting or be angry at you if you had an accident. A decent man would view you as a normal woman who is doing a normal female thing.

No.. hopefully I would have a regular sex life with my boyfriend so he will naturally get to know when I am on my period.
Though, in general it is not something I put on display for others.. like I have my period cup, tampons and pads stored in a closed box. If I have bad cramps I might tell friends why I am a bit off, but luckily that is very rare.

No why would I? He knows I’m a woman, and women have periods that’s just how it is. Only thing I wouldn’t do is constantly remind him or complain when I’m on my period. No need

Nata2496 · Answer

We live together, we have children together. He's a grown man so obviously knows biology. It would be difficult to hide in the same house and ridiculous to do so when he already knows it happens.

Yes2fruits · Answer

No cause he needs a reminder as to why my mood swings occur.

SnakeBoop · Answer

fuck nah. if the dude can't handle a period, he can't handle a woman.
