Today, I reminded my husband that I was on my period, so he wouldn't try to fool around with me. A few hours later, his goldfish-like memory kicked in and he stuck his hand down my pants while we were going to bed. I was wearing a maxi pad. FML
And some women find their periods just as gross as men do. And some guys don't care.

I know of very few men who think periods are disgusting... Lol that's the farther into detail that I'm going but - yeah haha

some women also feel a lot of pain while on their period. i know all of you will start saying it gets rid of cramps but sometimes its too painful to contemplate even starting.
Goldfish are very stupid animals, with a memory span of just 5 seconds. It takes only 4.5 seconds to read this question. Could a goldfish answer this question?
Wait-- I'm confused. You just said goldfish aren't stupid and then asked if I was a goldfish because I'm stupid?
Btw-- This was a popular quiz question off the Internet.

That's actually false about goldfish. Their memory lasts longer than just 5 seconds. You can actually train goldfish, if you have the patience.
Why do people suggest to just have sex during that time? Aren't most women uncomfortable on their periods? I get super debilitating cramps that I are so bad I usually just crawl up into a ball and sleep. Who would want to have sex during that time?

Not everyone has the same symptoms. When I'm on mine I just feel bloated and sore which is easily fixed by a warm bath and only lasts the first and second day. Meanwhile my sister has horrible debilitating cramps (like yours) that she needs to take painkillers for.
I take a Midol for the cramps, and my birth control makes my period pretty light, so it doesn't get messy. But, like someone else said, not everyone is the same.

Don't worry about it. It's a completely personal preference for every woman. Some women feel hornier during their periods, and for some it relieves the pain from cramps. Some women are in too much pain, or are just grossed out. Either way, do (or don't do) what's right for you.
Personally, for me, I don't have a problem with the blood. I don't like to be intimate during my period simply because I feel bloated, and my skin breaks out so I feel as far from sexy and attractive as possible. Even with sweet guys who didn't care, I couldn't relax enough to enjoy it because I was so self conscious.

Are you a webcam girl, #137? I would never have sex if I waited until I felt attractive.
KayleeFrye 39
Haha, no, I'm not a web cam girl. A little perverted that THAT is the first thing that comes to your mind! No girl ALWAYS feels attractive. But if you find a good guy, when he looks at you right, you will feel like the most sexy, beautiful, sexy girl in the world, even if you're not.
56-- maybe her flow is way too heavy to wear a tampon, maybe she is one of the rare sufferers of TSS, maybe she just prefers pads. She told her husband, not her fault.
#64 I'd like to hear your reasoning on this. There are risks that come with using tampons in general, and that doesn't change just because you're sleeping.
Yes it does. You're not supposed to leave a tampon in for more than 8 hours at a time. Even if you change it right before bed, you can easily sleep over 8 hours. It's a lot safer to sleep with a pad.
That depends on the woman's flow. In my experiences, anyway, my flow is so heavy that I can't afford to NOT wear a heavy-flow tampon -- in addition to a heavy-flow pad -- when I go to bed. If I don't use both during my first three days, it usually results in incredibly-bloody sheets and ruined underwear. It's gotten so bad that I have to resort to wearing black undies or constantly bleach my white pairs just to avoid severe staining (and this is coming from using a Super + or Ultra-size tampon, which hold 15 to 18 grams each). For those with light or regular flows, it's not too big of a problem to use only a panty liner or such, but for those with extremely heavy flows, there's really no other choice other than the Pill or wearing adult diapers.
165 - You should check out menstrual cups. They hold a lot of liquid before they start leaking and they're much safer than tampons because they're made of medical grade silicone (I believe you can wear up to 24 hours before TSS becomes an issue). Even on my heaviest days, I only have to wear a thin liner while I sleep. They're a godsend!
How is that disrespectful? Depending on their relationship, it may be perfectly normal for him to do that and for her to enjoy it.

not disrespectful at all...
drshn 22
Well you are too young, which you are, to understand or you must have met some feminist on the way. don't worry is not disrespectful at all but in this case the op clearly warned her husband and is just stupid
There's this thing called "consent." It is necessary for a guy to attain it before doing sexual things with a woman even if they're married. He obviously didn't ask for consent before putting his hand in her pants, hence the disrespect.
Have you just experienced an FML moment?
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

At least, for my boyfriend, period sex is just fine, but anal is out of the question. Like he always says, "No poo-poo on the pee-pee."
toneeangel 22
If he loves you(which I'm sure he does) he'll use his goldfish like memory and forget about it

speckledots 29
Just because they have a lack of memory doesn't make them stupid. you seem to be doing a pretty good job in that department, are you a goldfish?

Sex tends to make the cramps go away and it is usually what your body craves.. Whether you realize it or not. . Don't knock it till you try it! lol
monnanon 14
even knowing that it gets rid of cramps wouldnt make me do it if i was sore.

Except its dangerous to leave a tampon in while you sleep.

How do you think you get toxic shock syndrome? From leaving a tampon in too long.

Tampons. Always tampons. lol
KawaiiCupcake 14
Not everybody likes to wear them! That is why there are choices!
Linaelle 14
Naaah. Mooncup all the way. It's a lot more sanitary than a tampon, and totally comfy once you get used to it ^^

Sounds like he has no respect for you if he just sticks his hand down your pants like that..

What would meeting a feminist have to do with what they said? You're view on feminism is seriously ****** if you think that way.
