Couldn’t have said it ANY better.

My ex boyfriend kept telling me that my mindset makes the excruciating pain worse. Have I tried just not expecting pain?

Elegant-Stop · 2020-07-25T12:42:52+00:00

No physical pain in my entire life has ever compared with my cramps. It is absolutely excruciating and it happens every month. I burned myself with a heating pad because the sensation of my skin literally burning wasn’t registering compared to the pain of the cramps.

Edit: for all you experiencing horrific cramps, ask your doctor for Mefenamic Acid. It has been a godsend. One pill and I can avoid cramps that month.

This guy couldn't handle the pain of a paper cut.

I do kickboxing fights. I have had broken bones and kept on fighting. I have been stitched in cold blood (no anaesthesia) close to my eye. I have had liver shots (the worse pain!) and kept on going.

Some weeks ago I went running with 3 teammates, in the middle of the fucking run my period pains came out, and we had to stop because I started vomiting.

99% of scrotes couldn't even carry on with a broken bone, much less period pains. Fuck. Them.

They can have a whole wife and kids and still have zero empathy. That's why you gotta be near fucking scientific when choosing.

I birthed a whole ass human, and some days period cramps are comparable. Until a man births a child and bleeds regularly for most of his life, he will have no say on how I experience those pains.

So basically every doctor ever? They seem to think we make shit up.

Guys 100% exaggerate the pain of being kicked in the balls.

Equipoisonous · 2020-07-25T12:39:32+00:00

I don’t personally experience difficult period pain but I would never accuse another woman of exaggerating it. This scrote who doesn’t even have a uterus is basing this assumption on what exactly?

His hatred of women I’m assuming.

poliedrica · 2020-07-25T11:20:40+00:00

Me literally passing out or throwing up because of period pain:

This genius: yeah she's just exaggerating

seraphinelysion · 2020-07-25T13:39:36+00:00

I will be happy to kick this guy in the balls everyday for 1 week every month for the rest of his life if he wants to keep up his stupidity.

If men got periods then menstrual products would suddenly become free and we'd all have days off of work or school for our period. An underwear stipend too.

Hipster-Aurora · 2020-07-25T14:41:39+00:00

Men are being dramatic when they say their balls are sensitive and get hurt easily. When they get kicked they're just exaggerating the pain!

quiteshall0w · 2020-07-25T15:33:29+00:00

I love how men who have never and will never get a period feel it’s okay to tell women who do get periods that we’re all just over exaggerating. Their audacity never runs out does it?

bunnyQatar · 2020-07-25T19:07:05+00:00

My sister was in labor and our oldest brother was embarrassed by her screaming. He told her “it doesn’t hurt that bad”. She went full exorcist on him and banned him from the delivery room (he drove us to the hospital and her husband wasn’t able to get there yet). My brother has 7 kids with his wife. I felt so bad for her in that moment.

PR0N0IA · 2020-07-25T20:59:41+00:00

Interestingly enough, it was my now Husband who told me my period pains were NOT normal & said I needed to go to the doctor. He was very concerned & made me promise to go— even though I was convinced it was normal. It’s literally the only time he’s ever referenced his exes in comparison to me and he only did that because I was so convinced my pain level was normal.

Gynecologist suspected endometriosis and recommended an IUD— which has helped immensely. I haven’t had a period in 5 years; it’s been a life saver!

Meredeen · 2020-07-25T22:04:18+00:00

I'm lucky that my birth control has no discernible side effects and makes my periods actually tolerable. Other women can't say the same unfortunately, I hear time and time again just how bad of an experience that birth control can be. Our gender has the unfortunate responsibility of bearing your children, just shut the fuck up and get us some good chocolate.

quiteshall0w · 2020-07-25T17:32:03+00:00

I've heard men say depression doesn't exist, they say this because they've never experienced and so can't fathom it. Proof men are missing the ever so essential "empathy" emotion that's essential for emotional intelligence.

Fetus92 · 2020-07-25T21:23:49+00:00

I was with someone while I was dealing with a fibroids tumor that made me basically bleed out and feel excruciating pain. It was incredibly inconvenient for him because I never stopped bleeding so sex was nonexistent or messy. Also my pain was probably no worse than that one time he “insert shitty comparison here”. He ended up breaking up with me because I didn’t pay him enough attention because I WAS ANEMIC AND DYING AND TIRED. A few months later I genuinely almost bled out and died (I’d been bleeding for almost 8 months and the blood wasn’t really clotting anymore and I was just purely expelling actual blood not period blood). I had to get 4 blood transfusions just to get to a post-baby level of anemia and then surgery to get the fibroid removed and then 2 more blood transfusions.

I realized him breaking up with me was the greatest thing that ever happened to me and I wasn’t going to take men’s shit any more or baby them.

If anyone tries to down play what you are feeling physically or emotionally then they are trash and don’t deserve to be in your life.

my boyfriend is so understanding about my horrible periods and it’s amazing. i have the copper iud and every month i feel like my insides are gonna fall out

Newwavesupport3657 · 2020-07-26T19:46:56+00:00

A good way to judge a man is to see how he reacts to your pain.

Does he want to help and make your pain lighter and is he concerned for you or is it an inconvenience and nuisance to him to the point he tried to invalidate that your pain even exists?
