@Shae You’re putting so many words into my mouth.
Gailcalled compared menstruation (a natural process) to ejaculation (another natural process). I told her I found both processes unattractive.
I also mentioned MORE natural processes that are not “pretty”.
I am not saying that menstruation is exactly like shitting. I am saying they are both natural processes which I would rather not talk about, hear about, or see.
Flowers and waterfalls and starry nights are natural as well. But they are pretty. I do not share these feelings with the menstrual cycle. THUS I did not include them.
I am not saying women are unclean for this menstruation. I am saying it’s a process to which I am not attracted.
”You may not feel that your words have effects but they do… there are younger girls that are impressionable that will read your words and take them to heart.”
This question is about how people feel about menstruation. You have to realize that there are opposing views. You don’t go into a question about “How do you feel about religions X, Y, and Z?” and feel insulted because someone says they don’t believe in Xtianity, Yianity or Zology.
And never in my life have I ever brought up menstruation and my thoughts on it, unless someone asked for it intentionally. I did not go around middle school telling girls that their monthly cycle is filthy and they should be ashamed.
You know why? aside from me (surprisingly) not being a giant asshole in real life?
Because I don’t have any interest in the process. So I don’t think about it at all. Unless someone brings it up.
