Long time no cuss.
Oh, but you know how it feels I hope. It's the first day of my monthly pains, and I'm leaking like an over-riped strawberry. I'm terribly bloated too, and when I walk, I can feel my hips crashing against each other, the fats between the muscles (what muscles?) not cushioning the pain. Gah.
I feel wretched. I feel like throwing up. I feel like killing someone. I hate periods because they bring out the worst in anyone. In me, me, oh yes I'm a very very bad person on period days.
IT'S JUST FUCKING IRRITATING TO KNOW THAT BOYFRIENDS JUST DON'T FUCKING UNDERSTAND WHAT IT'S LIKE TO HAVE A PERIOD, AND THAT THEY KEEP FUCKING INSISTING THAT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO STILL BEHAVE NORMALLY (WHAT THE FUCK IS NORMAL ANYWAY?) EVEN AFTER ACKNOWLEDGING THAT WE WOMEN HAVE BEEN PATIENTLY ALLOWING THEM THEIR VERSION OF SHIT ALL OF 22 DAYS WHEN WE'RE NOT HAVING OUR PERIODS. WHATEVER.
You know what he says? Periods are not an excuse to behave like a bitch. Your period doesn't make you special, it doesn't make you deserve to be treated better. It doesn't allow you the freedom of demanding to be pitied. It's just like any other day.
Oh yeah? I'll tell you this, 'Being male is just no an excuse to not be sensitive and caring. You think walking around with a soil sanitary pad between your thighs is something we do every other day? You think walking around feeling soggy and damp right down there is something that happens on any other day? Am I fucking DEMANDING TO BE PITIED?
FUCK IT. You fall sick, you behave like a ridiculous boy in diapers, you demand to be fretted over… well try bleeding ONCE A MONTH. TRY knowing that you have to put aside RM50 a month just to go towards stocking up on quality sanitary pads. Try imagining what it's like to have a cotton stick stuck up your vagina so that you'd better control your flow, and try keeping track of the hours you have that cotton stick in there.
Oh wait. For starters, try having a vagina, and try remember that your tightness won't last very long and after a while your man will probably start looking for tighter young babes.
I'm getting a little obscene, but it's my period. So I can.

April 2nd, 2007 at 4:49 pm
Phew…..glad I didn’t have lunch with you and Bob, etc., yesterday. Would hate to have you direct at me the wrath and poison spewing out of you now. Hehehe….
April 2nd, 2007 at 4:53 pm
Having said that, boyfriends can be rather inconsiderate at times, aren’t they? Man, I’m like looking forward to meeting your guy at this Thursday’s dinner to assess how badly damaged he is by this latest episode. Me and Bob, etc., will check for bruises on him. Muahahahahahhhhh

Boyfriends don’t understand how it’s like to have a period because you never let them see. When girls have a period they hide their vagina and the boyfriend resorts to masturbation. If he gets to do more than just ‘put it in’ I’m sure he’ll be more understanding during period time.
April 3rd, 2007 at 9:27 am
hmmm….when you roar roar like this is no joke…..paws in the air, scary….
April 3rd, 2007 at 11:07 am

Steven: It’s short for “Too Much Information”
Mini: Try having your left breast explode with pain every time you cough or sneeze. I’m living on Ponstan. Bleargh. I think it’s a muscle pull… I was told to wait two weeks and if it’s not better by then, go get it checked out.
By the way, it’s great that you only feel like killing someone when you have your period. I feel like killing someone EVERY SINGLE MORNING. Mornings, bah! Couldn’t God have just invented afternoons and left out the morning bit?
April 3rd, 2007 at 6:47 pm
GOD! This is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo wrong.
So, so wrong.

@Sunflower
Find a job where you work night shift. That way, you’ll spend all morning sleeping.

TenthOfMarch: Now, that’s an idea! hehehe

at the risk of sounding insensitive, does that mean bad behaviour should be condoned just because you have your period?
say you kill somebody in a fit of rage because you were having your period (extra sensitive, uncomfortable,etc) should the law let you off because you were having a bad day and stomach cramps?
April 4th, 2007 at 12:50 pm
stres: kinda puts the cursing in a better light, doesn’t it?
Nobody in the history of mankind has ever been killed by a hormonal bitch before. The irony is most were moved by less.

I am no girl, but i understand the predicaments they have to endure during this times. I might be the only one doing this, but i think its only fair that all girl needs to be taken care off closely especially during their PMS. If i can do it for the girl friends of mine, i can’t think of any reason why it shouldn’t be better for someone in a real relationship. Special attention once a month, concentrated attention for the rest of the month

There goes strawberries for me.

I have to disagree with you on that. Yes, it sucks having a period. I hate bleeding too.
But it’s not an excuse to act like a bitch.
You know that you’ll be more…sensitive certain days. So you can just tell your significant other you’re feeling off. Because how is anyone going to take us seriously as working people or professionals if we let our menses dictate whether or not we do a good job. Except for that pineapple incident. Being sick = getting lots of manja-ing. We can’t throw “I’m having my period” in people’s faces all the time, ya know.
But I’m not attacking you. Just disagreeing with the whole “period is excuse for acting like a spaz once a month”.
