Seriously. Flipping out... over an unused, unopened tampon? Get a grip, man! I hope he never gets married, because that's just gonna hurt, he'll have to avoid the bathroom like the plague....

No. This guy's just a bit of a freak.

It seems to go hand-in-hand without having any access to a female urogenital system, as far as I can tell. The guys who are most grossed out about periods seem to be unhappily single, although the sample I know is too small to be any more than a random ancedote.

Hm. But which is it, cause or effect?

Good question. I was never afraid of periods when I was a virgin, and I was a virgin for quite a while. I only knew one woman who acted as if I was afraid of her period. She seemed happy to learn that I wasn't, but she was a compulsive liar.

What's scary is women who are scared of their periods. Not in the "I have lots of painful cramping and please let it not hurt this month" way but in the "OMG! THEY SAW MY TAMPON! ITS SO GROSSSS! NOW THEY KNOW I GET MY PERIOD!!!!" way.

Well, that's what hysterectomies are for, right?

I don't get that.

I have no qualms explaining "shark week" with a plethora of other obtuse euphemisms. I do this because after ten minutes of saying "riding the cotton pony," "the painters are in," and "Luna rolled my numeber" I get to shout: "I'M BLEEDING FROM MY VAGINAL CAVITY, YOU FARKING NINNY!"
