This thread is proof that it is definitely women who try to hide that periods are gross. Much like how "Don't you realise that most skincare and make up is made by men" is making a rather different argument to the one he thinks it is.

Yep, monthly average. Err... per-period average?

Y’all are reminding me how I saw a pad commercial the other day and they were actually using (light) red liquid. it was super surprising and I can’t help but think how many people who saw that were freaked out (myself included) because we have managed to normalize Blue Curaçao menses, I guess? had to have a long think to myself after that one

The same shock jock who calls teen girls and adult women Tomato Pants went on and on about a news story pre Covid, a company that offered women a paid week off for their periods/they could work from home if they were up to it, otherwise week off. How pissed he was, and then how eager to get all the "super bitchy" women out, but only if dudes got a paid week off to wank.

it's like, I will never ever have a penis or experience what it feels like to ejaculate, but I am pretty sure it overall feels better than a period.

Yeah, I heard 2 tablespoons back in the day. I think I figured it out though. It is possible that no matter how much menstrual fluid you lose, only a tablespoon or two of that is regular circulating blood. Like when you shed the uterine lining that leaves some capillaries at loose ends and a tiny bit of regular blood leaks out of the circulatory system. The liquified uterine lining itself isn't exactly blood. Menstrual fluid also contains mucus, anticoagulant, and probably various goos I can't remember at the moment. Fluid produced does not equal blood lost.

Why would the small amount of regular circulating blood lost be worth mentioning at all? Just a guess, but I bet it's that whole "thing that bleeds for 5 days and doesn't die" meme. They want to reassure 14 year olds that you're not going to lose a dangerous amount of blood and randomly die of anemia one month. That would be hemorrhaging, not menstruating.

I am totally pulling this out of my rear end, but it seems like a reasonable way the misleading 1-2 tablespoons factoid could have gotten started.

Just like a fullness that equates more to what she felt in 3rd trimester of our 1st born than the fullness that you experience after eating. Stomach feels "weird" but not like nausea. She just says she feels pregnant. I think she took a test like a week after I busted and it was negative so I'm a little worried about what her feeling could be if it's not eggnancy.
