Why do men get grossed out by period sex?

My ex would refuse to touch me or even be the littlest bit intimate with me when I was on my period. At first I understood and respected that but it soon got to the point where I would feel insecure and even terrified to ask for such a thing from him. I realized that he was a bit to immature to see past that.

Now that I’m out of the relationship, I’m sleeping with a friend of mine and the same issue is coming up with period sex. We were planning on hooking up but then I got a sign that I might be on my period. I told him this and he just completely dipped on our plans and said “let me know when you’re done”.

Ngl, I feel really insecure just like how I did with my ex. Almost as if I’m dirty for being on my period. I know this ain’t the case and it’s a normal for women but I just can’t help but feel that way.

I guess I just want to know what other people’s opinions are on this and what would you do in my position.

  • I honestly have never met a man who cared all that much. My first time I suggested not doing it because it was messy not because I thought it was gross (blood stains, it would be hard to clean up etc.). That lasted all of five minutes (because you know, I was horny), then it looked like I murdered some one with my dick and we laughed about it.

    I can see however why some one would be against it if they didn't live alone (because you need to clean up afterwards and that could be awkward walking to the bathroom with your genitals covered in blood if others live with you) but beyond that I have not cared and I don't know of any one who has. This is odd to me.

  • Sex when the girl is on. Is good for her and I have enjoyed it. I would never do oral but never expect it either. I recommend a red or dark towel as it can get messy

  • Hmm that’s a red flag. If he doesn’t want to hangout without hooking up then he isn’t into you, like at all ( besides sexually)

  • I'm certainly not grossed out by it as long as I can pick which period. I'd like doggy and reverse cowgirl during the 1920"s.

  • I have found that women are grossed out by period sex much more then men. You should be having more sex, not sitting on the bench for a whole week each month. At the cost of making a little bit of a mess, you get free lube, crazy good orgasms, and you typically don't have to worry about getting pregnant. I think it can even be helpful with cramps.

    Plus, you know you're a dirty girl whether you're on your period or not. I want to make you even more dirty.

    I'm Buck Wild and I approve this message.

  • Period won't stop me from having sex. There have been two women I've had sex with during periods. One time with my ex-girlfriend her period started actually during sex, my dick came out covered with blood, haha.

    I've also performed oral sex during periods. Even when my girlfriend was wearing a tampon.

  • Tbh that is my favorite time to eat that sweet little pussy

  • I olso whas scare about period sex because this :

    Why do men get grossed out by period sex?



    Whntile my girl tell me this is stupit and is just a little drop and not even so red. I decided to try but just not to look down there.
    Whntile i decidet to look and i finde out it wasn't suck a big deal

  • like those ain't men those are boys like I can care less if my girlfriend is on her period I'll help out anyway I can and do most things she wants but I can't afford having a child with her yet we still to young and we still gotta find a home or bigger apartment

  • Blood isn't sexy. I don't want to pull out and look like i just stabbed you with a knife

  • Give me sex during menstruation. I dont care what time of the month it is or how heavy the flow. Give me sex.

  • Put down a towel and throw it into the wash right after. No problem. We did it snd there were no problems.

  • Well first of all if they are not understanding what period is that means they are just kids.
    Second if you wanna have sex you can nothing gross it's just your need and understanding

  • Ngl I would love to try period sex, apparently it feels better for her/she has more intense orgasms

    • That’s what I hear but clearly never to opportunity to find out lol

  • if im dating and she wants period sex then im all in for it just shower afterwards

  • Lots of people, men and women, are put off by blood. Why would you want to force a guy to have sex during your period and make a big bloody mess?

    More importantly, why is it that women seem to believe men should "embrace" menstruation just because it's natural? Poop is natural. Pee is natural. Vomit is natural. Flatulence is natural. Why would you want any of those things to be part of sex just because they are natural?

    Men should "embrace" menstruation as part of sex in the same way you women should embrace a good fart at dinner.

    Check your entitlement.

    • I think you just need to cool it and take a moment for yourself:)

  • Here's my opinion. When she wants sex I give her sex, period or not.
