We don't go through the pain/bloating, but we go through the abuse.

Plus, all women don't act differently while on their period. Like I said...I'm lucky and don't have pain, etc. so my mood doesn't change at all. But it still sucks bleeding out for 4 days.

Its like saying that some female athletes are really good and better than a lot of men, so therefore women are just as good at sports on average. Some women are really good, but the best women don't matchup with the best men in sports. Its just a fact. While some men are very moody, on average men aren't near as moody as women, especially during that time of the month.
2. Agreed, not all women "act differently", but again, we are talking about "on average" here, not single cases.
Agreed, good analogy. Another example would be a woman's expertise in the kitchen.jmog;470386 wrote:1.

It's my understanding that the hormonal fluctuations and imbalances are what trigger mood changes.Fab4Runner;470359 wrote:... Like I said...I'm lucky and don't have pain, etc. so my mood doesn't change at all....

The funny thing about women....here's a biological explanation. When referring to pain, women tend to jump the gun comparing their pain with men. "Well, men wouldn't be able to handle child birth, that's why only women can do it blah blah blah." Although that is true, during the child birthing process, women secrete hormones and chemicals that make pain much more tolerable. However, when women arn't pregnant or giving birth, they have a lower pain tolerance than men. Additionally, women tend to be more vocal about pain and body issues, which is why they make up a much higher percentage of doctor's visits. The combination of being more vocal about pain, and having a lower pain tolerance than men, make this sugarplumfairy not very sympathetic with periods. Grow up and deal with it. "Extreme Pain?" Please. When me and Adam Lambert rendezvous, now that's extreme pain!Fab4Runner;470486 wrote:Yes, and being in extreme pain may also cause someone to be a bit moody would it not?

How many of you guys have an excuse for being assholes all month long???
