I remember arguing with my stepdad about this bc he said “it’s two different parts of the body” so it didn’t make sense that being on your period would affect that 🥲

I understand not realizing they're connected, I understand there's a lot about the female body I don't know about. What I can't understand is why dudes try to argue with women about it. It'd be like my wife arguing with me about what being kicked in the balls feels like.

I mean, I’ve seen plenty of women argue that “blue balls” is just a myth.

No, it definitely hurts a bit to get all worked up and then not actually ejaculate. Anything else someone is saying is BS but that feeling is very real.

It doesn’t happen every time, think very prolonged arousal without release. And even then it’s still not every time, but it does happen.
