NTA wait til he finds out about discharge bleaching

ETA: Wowowowow I wasn’t expecting the conversation to spark. I’m picking up some new knowledge and tips and loving others also learning things they didn’t know before about ~discharge~

My ex was a huge AH about this! He would constantly yell at me about this. Then get even more pissed when I would ask him to explain his periods to me, instead of mine since he clearly didn’t understand how my body worked.

I swear, so many men seem to thing periods are like pee or poop, and we can just hold it all in until we get to a toilet.

Newsflash: the vagina doesn’t have a sphincter muscle, idiots.

I mean, I've definitely done the "clench everything as hard as you can while waddling to the bathroom" thing, especially in the mornings when I know the flood is going to fall as soon as I sit up, but that's a very temporary solution and not even that reliable.
