wildknight-88 OP

I think periods should be discussed openly when appropriate, but people should also be able to keep personal details private if they prefer.

plaidgarden-51

Agreed

snowyumber-66

Agreed

snowyumber-66

swiftorchid-87

swiftorchid-87

snowyumber-66

Cuz they just don't wanna talk about it

snowyumber-66

And that's how society build

@snowyumber-66 Cuz they just don't wanna talk about it
snowyorange-96

snowyumber-66

It's their choice

wildwillow-13

depends on the comfort nd safe they feel

snowyumber-66

Yea

snowyjungle-82

Funny how even men know periods are natural and shouldn't be hidden like it's a taboo than some females

quickranger-40

I mean let’s not normalize talking about any bodily fluids but I agree that periods are not a big deal at all

quickranger-40

It’s a shame that some women in the world have to be exiled while they’re on their period JUST because it’s a period

swiftorchid-87

thats why it should be discussed properly

@quickranger-40 It’s a shame that some women in the world have to be exiled while they’re on their period JUST beca…
swiftorchid-87

so it doesnt be seen as a taboo

quickranger-40

This is why having older sisters are the move

quickranger-40

My brother isn’t one of those dumb ass men that go “ewwww” about periods

quickranger-40

Yall ain’t men if u do that btw

swiftorchid-87

faxx

@quickranger-40 Yall ain’t men if u do that btw
snowyumber-66

briskwalrus-29

Thats definitely a perspective

briskwalrus-29

briskwalrus-29

It's important to talk about these things since its kind of a big deal

@briskwalrus-29 It's important to talk about these things since its kind of a big deal
snowyorange-96

Why especially that part

briskwalrus-29

It's not like its inappropriate

briskwalrus-29

It's just blood dude

briskwalrus-29

silverforest-35

snowyjungle-82

The topic in general not to a specific person

snowyorange-96

snowyorange-96

Imagine grouping on someone

briskwalrus-29

snowyorange-96

And the point you see me u will reply like

snowyorange-96

briskwalrus-29

I dont understand what you're mad about. I just thought it was a bit immature how you were acting earlier...

snowyorange-96

Immature?

briskwalrus-29

"I can talk how I want"

snowyorange-96

The only immature thing is yall grouping on me

snowyorange-96

Like bfr

briskwalrus-29

I dont think anyone is grouping on you

briskwalrus-29

Its a debate

snowyorange-96

snowyorange-96

So i went on peaceful movie time

briskwalrus-29

snowyorange-96

You dont know what thing i am talking about

briskwalrus-29

Then explain?

snowyorange-96

I dont have to explain what i mean

briskwalrus-29

Ok

@snowyorange-96 They were grouping on me
wildwillow-13

Lowk..crows come in groups kinda

@briskwalrus-29 Ok
wildwillow-13

Anyone feels gross.if the topic is related to blood nd all..y'all shld try making the topic clean as possible ..its not like don't open up..yk weak minded ppl exist who might get scared when y'all mention such details..so y'all can just tell "periods" and continue the topic ig

swiftdelta-92

swiftdelta-92

snowyorange-96

Yes that too

@wildwillow-13 Lowk..crows come in groups kinda
snowyorange-96

Yeah but unexpected

@briskwalrus-29 Its kinda sad people get scared by periods . Sounds like a personal failing
snowyorange-96

No you are failing to understand why people get scared of it

snowyorange-96

People can have trauma and all sorts other traumas

briskwalrus-29

Who has trauma caused by periods??

@briskwalrus-29 Who has trauma caused by periods??
snowyorange-96

The blood in general

snowyorange-96

If they have a traumatic past it will still trigger them

briskwalrus-29

This is a reach

briskwalrus-29

Are you one of those people?

@briskwalrus-29 Are you one of those people?
snowyorange-96

Well yes i have intense fear of it

sharpdolphin-67

Oh QiQi u have Hemophobia/Hematophobia?

briskwalrus-29

Well damn why didn't you start with that

@sharpdolphin-67 Oh QiQi u have Hemophobia/Hematophobia?
snowyorange-96

Hemophobia

@briskwalrus-29 Well damn why didn't you start with that
snowyorange-96

Nobody asked and i did not feel its needed in this conversation

briskwalrus-29

Regardless of if ur afraid of blood or not, I still think periods should be discussed more openly. Just not with people like you

snowyorange-96

Well and also maybe some can ask questions about it sure then u can talk about it , but if u randomly talk about it and the person feels utterly uncomfortable then it just gets weird

snowyorange-96

And thats what i have been trying to say

briskwalrus-29

Do you or do you not agree that periods should be discussed more openly

briskwalrus-29

Thats kinda the whole point of the conversation

snowyorange-96

I said that with people who dont mind it you can talk in dms or irl about it

snowyorange-96

And if others dont feel comfterable then refrain from talking that to them or if they have fear

briskwalrus-29

right(?)

snowyorange-96

I dont belive it should be discussed in servera

snowyorange-96

Publicly

briskwalrus-29

to an extent yes . I just don't find it that big of an issue but to each their own

snowyorange-96

But like depends on what you are talking about i guess

snowyorange-96

Which wont trigger anyone else

briskwalrus-29

I do feel like the blood is discussed often, more so just the pain. I have no idea what kinds of people ur talking to tho

@briskwalrus-29 I do feel like the blood is discussed often, more so just the pain. I have no idea what kinds of pe…
snowyorange-96

Well some goes to an extreme lvl

snowyorange-96

On socials much

snowyorange-96

People should have big understanding of the pain

snowyorange-96

And overwhelmingness

@snowyorange-96 Well some goes to an extreme lvl
briskwalrus-29

then why not just let them know ur uncomfortable ?

@briskwalrus-29 then why not just let them know ur uncomfortable ?
snowyorange-96

Everyone express different ways and like if you will comment on a post online people will just hate on you for commenting, and the best to just do is scroll

briskwalrus-29

oh ok. Then just block and go on about ur day

snowyorange-96

Well i am tired of this topic

snowyorange-96

I hate 4 am

snowyorange-96

So many people sleep peacefully

snowyorange-96

owo h

@briskwalrus-29 oh ok. Then just block and go on about ur day
wildwillow-13

Thts crazy !! Saying them to block u when they are expressing their honesty abt their fears nd as a basic thing they expect some comfy words from u

wildwillow-13

Shows how rude ur words can be if the topic is especially abt periody

@snowyorange-96 Everyone express different ways and like if you will comment on a post online people will just hate…
briskwalrus-29

They said they felt uncomfortable about people talking about it in detail online

briskwalrus-29

Unfortunately you are not everyone and don't go by the same morals

briskwalrus-29

So its more mature to just block

wildwillow-13

So u can reassure them by trying not to talk abt it .instead of acting as "I'm open abt evrything" typa guy

wildwillow-13

Approach them slowly abt their fears .nd later slowly u can open up

briskwalrus-29

thats not what im talking about in this specific context dude

wildwillow-13

If u r trying to justify smtg..u gotta keep some patience

briskwalrus-29

The internet is the internet and people are gonna share whatever they want

wildwillow-13

Well im talking abt u and ur talks

wildwillow-13

I can't keep judging every internet guy

wildwillow-13

But it's fine if I can to a guy

briskwalrus-29

Oh ig we're changing the subject 👀

wildwillow-13

briskwalrus-29

briskwalrus-29

you too 🫡

@wildwillow-13 Shows how rude ur words can be if the topic is especially abt periody
snowyorange-96

I dont think they meant anything bad about it, just their opinions on what to do when a situation like that , comes to someone who feels uncomfortable or triggerd with situation that block could be situation, i dont have expectations on anyone based on what they will say.

snowyorange-96

Plus they are a minor so it is reasonable they come to block conclusion

snowyorange-96

On hot takes it is also easy to misunderstand peoples intentions

@snowyorange-96 I dont think they meant anything bad about it, just their opinions on what to do when a situation l…
wildwillow-13

snowyorange-96

Maybe for some

snowyorange-96

But for some not

snowyorange-96

Depends how they handle the situation
