Luckily it didn't kick off both times
Very possibly because women are more likely to take "no" for an answer than men are.

Indeed.What really annoys me about these perverts and fetishists is that if they experienced even just one actual period, they would have a complete mental breakdown at the sheer horror of it all.
Even for someone like me, with an apparently bog-standard reproductive system, and no history of problematic menstruation, periods were always a bleeping nightmare. For one week in every month, half of our clothes are too tight, and we can't wear half of our clothes during the following week in case anyone sees or notices any bulges, leaks or odours. We feel sticky and slightly grubby, and dread meeting anyone we know who has a dog because the dog just "knows". We can't have sex (we can, but it's messy) it's annoying when we're on holiday or are going to a wedding or a big night out. We have to carry spare knickers, pads and tampons, we have to count the days, they're just a complete pain in the a, and men really, really don't know how lucky they are.
Nosebleed? duck off!!
Menstrual periods are the result of a hormonal cycle related to the WOMB and OVARIES.
They can stick their nosebleeds up their arses, along with their ketchup-soaked tampons.
Yes, exactly, and that’s also what really pissed me off with that Webberley rant about how privileged we are. Aside from the every day misogyny that women face, periods were in my experience very unpleasant, for the reasons you describe and I also used to get pre menstrual depression and hormone related migraines on top of all that. Can you imagine men putting up with that? If men had periods they’d work a three week month.What really annoys me about these perverts and fetishists is that if they experienced even just one actual period, they would have a complete mental breakdown at the sheer horror of it all.

I was reading Zarah Sultana’s X earlier in relation to the Your Party fiasco and was reminded of just what an awful person she is
I also used to get pre menstrual depression and hormone related migraines
Same - the migraines in particular were horrendous. I couldn't see, light was like a knife, I felt that my eyeball would burst (ocular migraine), vomiting, and occasionally being physically unable to move (which was terrifying). They lasted for days. The menopause has never been more welcome.. (I stick get an occasional one, but nowhere as frequent, severe or long-lasting.)
I haven't had a period in over 10 years but I'm still suffering the effects of endometriosis. Compilations post surgery, the small part of ovary I have left still producing endometrial material and growing follicles and bleeping up my body. All that's missing is the shedding of the womb lining.
This is why we 'gatekeep' menstruation and all the associated BS that goes with it. The bleeping audacity of some dude thinking his stomach ache or poo pains are anything like what we go through, Jesus.

Spoiler (I can't actually figure out how to do a spoiler) - LOTS of swearing!Changing the subject for a moment to share this delusional nugget of wisdom from a TIM.
The discussion is about how unfair women are when we gatekeep periods and refuse to believe that some TIM also experience them...apart from the bleeding.
Very few seem to understand that it's a menstrual cycle, and the bleeding is the end of an event that takes 28 days (can vary) to complete. Instead they try to appropriate one aspect of womanhood, ignoring the science behind it. And I usually feel a mixture of annoyance and anger whenever I stumble upon these conversations online.
But.....this comment is so bizarre and unscientific that it's funny.

ps - during a period women may experience a nose bleed in addition to a usual period, but none of the medical reasons behind this apply to a man.
Grrrrr!!!
These bleeping arsewipes can take my suddenly irregular bleeping perimenopause periods and shove them up up their... duck knows what!
bleeping fucktards! How dare they try compare ANYTHING of theirs to ours!

'Only people who have internal reproductive organs have the ability to get pregnant.'
Imagine having to stress this fact on a poster for people of reproductive age.
They've included a made up flag and some weird symbol and as well as the confusing message. Screams CULT.
This is what happens when you let the HR dept run an organisation.
" It will be difficult to prove the precise level of influence that LGBTQ+ networks had over senior officials in government, and over clinicians within the NHS, during the controversy over “gender affirming care” (hormone blockers and the removal of health body parts) during the decade while that debate was in contention in the UK.

Omg, are you me? You summed up how I feel about my local government job in a nutshell.I only complete things that are mandatory training to keep my job. If its optional I don't botherbecause I no longer give a tit.
I used to be that employee who went the extra distance to prove how useful I am. At least when I worked in the private sector my efforts did get me somewhere but now I work for local government I've totally changed my mind because putting in extra effort doesn't get any rewards, it just gets you more work with no pay rise or hope of promotion. Now I just do the minimum required like so many others and I'm just hoping to hang on for a few more years until I'm replaced with AI.
As for the online training...
I have said this before - but I wonder how that sad bad weird al

It's a recognised medical condition. Most of us suffer from it on here.
Her new party (such as it is) will never reconcile the trans vote and the Muslim vote, and shows that she's incapable of measuring the political mood in this country.
Her and her ilk have paved the way for the rise of right wing populism with this bull and they'll be the last to realise it.
Or, indeed, any woman.
On a different note- just looking on The Other Site - Naomia Campbell is appearing in an employment tribunal in Edinburgh 30th Sept - 3d Oct.
The claimant would like awareness raised and is asking people to request that it is a publicly observable hearing.
Apologies if it is inappropriate to post this here but I thought it might be of interest. You can look the relevant details up if you wish to support it.
Earlier this year, my youngest child had to have an X- Ray, she has had them since birth to monitor her lung growth and spinal curvature. This year was the first time that my husband, a 6 foot bearded, broad shouldered, unmistakable man, was asked by a male radiologist if he was ever a woman at any time in his life. We were both so confused at first. He laughed it off and said no and pointed to his beard. I asked the female radiologist what the relevance was in the question and she stated that he might be pregnant. She gave me a bit of a judging look at the time. My question slipped out before I could think, but in hindsight, I'm glad I said something because it was utterly ludicrous. Note, they did not ask me, the actual woman who birthed the child, if I was pregnant and we were both there to restrain our daughter (unfortunately she does not react well to medical procedures) and we both had to wear the aprons. I look like a woman too and 1000 times better looking than Himdia and his pals but I'm also an average looking woman. Nothing special but definitely female. So I'm not surprised by this but I am angry.
yes!!! It’s so, so frustrating. In normal conversation, I think I can argue my point quite well because I’m not really trying to convince anybody of anything, I’m just listening and responding. I think I am naturally curious and enjoy any conversation that goes deeper than small talk!I seem to become utterly inarticulate and start stammering when I'm really angry yet passionate about something. I also seem to misplace my intelligence and completely forget any argument counter points.
where I really struggle is when I can feel I’m not being met with the same curiosity. The other person isn’t actually interested in or listening to what I’m saying, they’re just rehearsing propaganda sound bites that I really don’t think they’ve thought too deeply about. I then get so frustrated that they’re not listening to me and it all goes bits up tbh and I end up looking insane.
i think people are so threatened by dissent these days. There’s a lot I’ve changed my mind about over the last few years and it’s become a lot easier for me to see how class based all these issues are, and how my own social mobility shielded me from these arguments in my 20s. But now I’m off social media and I don’t have an office I go into everyday, it’s like I’ve stepped out of a bubble where everybody is trapped screaming the same things at each other.
It’s all very annoying and isolating. I’m trying out stand-up atm (very early stages, have only done a few gigs) and at every single gig I’ve been to, there will be some kind of trans/non-binary gag, and especially now, jokes about the immigration protests. They’re always the same jokes, and I’m getting particularly bored of the immigration ones where the joke is that the protesters are stupid and poor. But, as with trans issues, I can feel this is another ‘no go’ area in my immediate circles and anything I say to counter the current narrative will be shat on.
If anything good has come from it all it’s that I have been forced to think on all these culture points more deeply so I know that whenever someone dismisses me as hateful, that really isn’t true. In my experience, those comments reflect a deeper fear inside the person making them - they’re too scared to interrogate their own biases and so they project them onto me instead. Knowing my own intentions is very grounding and helpful in those moments, I just need to work on allowing others the space to work out theirs.
