Today, we were doing research on contraceptives in class. Afterwards, the girl next to me starts explaining how "cringey" and "grossed out" she gets when she sees/hears "the words for the private parts." She then tells me all about her getting her period that morning in explicit detail. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I got my period at school. I didn't notice until a boy asked me if I'd killed someone in my pants. FML
Sex Ed has failed a lot of people
Today, a senior girl in my college-level biology course asked our professor what periods are like when you’re pregnant. FML
Today, in bio class, we were studying the reproductive system. I don't like talking about this stuff, and I twitched every time my teacher said "penis" or "vagina." When I told my family, they laughed and kept repeating those words just to see me twitch. FML
Wrong end of the stick
Today, while teaching my kindergarten class, I had a feeling I was starting my period again. A boy in the class asked me what a period was. Stressing over my own, I briefly told him it's a woman's time of the month when they have mood swings. He was asking about the dot at the end of a sentence. FML
Nice timing
Today, my family and I argued whether getting a period or boner in the middle of class was worse. At the dinner table. FML
Today, I had the misfortune of getting my period during another exam. And yes, the male professor also noticed this time. FML
Today, we had to re-live sex ed in my college biology class. Unlike in middle school, nobody giggled incessantly. However, the guy sitting next to me stared at me intensely for nearly the whole three hour lecture. FML
Today, my mother and I went to a meeting at my school about a camping trip the students in my grade will be going on. When the time to ask questions came, my mother raised her hand and loudly asked, "What if my child is on their period during the trip?" FML
Great opener
Today, as part of my medical anatomy course, I had to give a presentation about an STD and the effects it has on women. The class was comprised almost entirely of girls. I become extremely anxious and accidentally stated, "Vaginas are smelly" as my opening statement. FML
Observational comedy
Today, I, an insecure high school student, told my 11-year-old sister that I got my period in third grade. She responded with, “What?! Then how come you didn’t have tits until last year?” FML

Say the private part words every chance you get. Drive her away.

Tell her that just like she doesn't like hearing about genitals, you don't like hearing about menstrual cycles and what her's is like. Tell her that the decent thing to do, given that you are respecting her avoidance of discussion on genitals, that common decency says she should respect menstrual cycles being a taboo subject for you. If that doesn't work, every time she tries to bring up the subject, fake gag and move away from her. Though now I am reminded a girl in my middle school computer science class who out of nowhere walked across the entire room and sat next to me. She then began graphically describing the time she walked in on her mother masturbating to ****, followed by informing me of her own sexual tendencies. Then she asked me about my masturbatory habits and when I said I didn't want to discuss the subject got upset about me not 'returning the favor.' It should be noted that she was fifteen (or was it sixteen...) at the time and I was only eleven or twelve for added creepiness. We were also two of only six students in class at the time, and the other four and the teacher were wearing headphones at the other end of the classroom. I thought I had repressed that memory. Looking back, I probably should have reported her behavior to someone, especially since she kept trying to sit next to me for the rest of term.
