Just wondering, I always see posts about menstration/cycles/periods with TMI somewhere in them. Are periods really TMI? Are guys that uncomfortable to see someone talk about something that happens to nearly every woman in the world 12 times a year? Really?

My experience, yes, men really are uncomfortable with talking about periods. They know that they happen, but don't want details. I had one friend that, any time I wanted to freak him out, I'd pull a tampon out of my purse and show it to him. He'd turn white and run. It's the rare man who wants to hear about, talk about, or even know about your period.

Oh I don't sit here and talk about it. I suppose when I see something with TMI I think it's GOT to be something good, not the same old "I'm 3 weeks late" post blahhh where's the skanks around here?

Men don't usually want to know.....the more "technical/maintenance" Stuff about women's' "vajay-jays" (in this case lots of men DON"T want to know...."what's under the hood!") We just know we love them......and it is kinda like a cute lil puddy cat....you want to snuggle....pet.....kiss.....and caress.....the warm....fuzzy...puddy cat........but if it started to bleed........ya might freak out a bit! ha ha! i like to learn as much about this stuff as possible.....knowledge is power...ladies....knowledge is power! Enlighten the "masses" keep postin'

Idk it's just odd seeing it in every post that has to do with a cycle. It feels kinda like middle school. :)

I think it is mostly with subject matter that may "offend" people...ya know....like BM's and ****(no pun intended) That way if you might be offended ....you don't have to open it. I'm NOT easily offended....as you can probably tell! You can rest assured...if it has TMI in the title....it has some sort of bodily function/fluids involved!

Ya : / I guess so. I have yet to see anything I've been offended by on this board but maybe I'm like you and just not that easily offended.

Doesn't bother me... I'd rather read about blood than diarrhea!

Once I reach goal, this cow will be killed & eaten... 2 ounces at a time.

Total includes 56 lbs. lost on 2-month low carb pre-op diet. Start date 9/13/10.
