Ketchup on Your Hotdog?
Women bleed once a month - Fact.
To do or not to do: that is the question.
I hate how society teaches girls at a young age that their menstrual blood is ‘dirty’ and everything about it must be hush-hush. I also hate how men contribute to this kind of sentiment by treating women like lepers and thinking a woman’s period is ‘gross’. But what I hate most is how men feel entitled to bj’s galore because a women is on her cycle.
Because a woman is on her dot, it does not automatically mean it’s bj week, if he has a partner. Why would any woman want to go down on her knees when she’s bleeding with cramps? Women should be given “Period Presents” consisting of Midol, chocolate, chips, or whatever tickles their fancy. One of my old roommates used to give me Period Presents, they were the best!
It is perfectly safe for both parties to resume intercourse during a cycle. It is actually beneficial for women because it relieves cramps and speeds the process along. When a woman orgasms during intercourse, it helps her uterus to contract and hormones called Prostagladins stimulate the blood to move out of the uterus, speeding up the whole cycle.
One of the top reasons most couples do not enjoy sex during this week is because of the mess it creates. A few towels can help prevent Battlefield 1942 in the bedroom. Or another solution can be doing it in the shower; that way the murder scene and weapon can be washed away with ease.
Either way, women should not feel ashamed, or embarrassed by this natural occurrence and sex should not be denied (by her partner) period.
Flow on my sisters, flow on.
(author’s note: when I say “men” I do not mean ALL men, or MY man. don’t get it twisted.)
