"I'm a woman+get periods too"
What are your periods like? I’m a woman+get periods too but I’ve always wondered whether the stats for how much we’re supposed to bleed and cramp are accurate to people’s real experiences. It’s hard to tell what a “normal” period is if we don’t talk

OP here what’s wrong with my phrasing? I meant the plus like a slash but without implying that being a woman and getting periods are equivalent or interchangeable

why are we harping on this phrasing lol i don’t think she’s lying, she just said it for context. it could’ve been to clarify that she’s cis or it could’ve just been that people are redundant by accident sometimes

Literally sitting on the couch in my pjs, menstrual cup in and feeling like shit as I type this. What type of “better effort” do you require to believe someone has a uterus, and why on earth would you assume I’m lying?
