Is that too serious?
By bears?
I spent 4 days hiking from Easy Pass to Colonial Creek a few years ago. I was planning to hike to Stehekin (in nine? days) but there was a fire and I couldn't stomach the food I brought and I had to bail halfway through. About 15 miles of the trip was through a rarely visited part of North Cascades National Park, the trail hadn't been maintained that year, I went 2 days without seeing another human, there was nothing but elk and bears in the area. NPS made me carry a bear canister. The hippie ranger gave me a lecture. "Bears don't want to eat hikers, they want to eat berries." She told me to announce my presence, state my intentions, and don't get between an adult and a huckleberry bush.
So I spent the next several days saying "Hey, bear" every time the trail was too brushed out to see, or went around a blind corner. To avoid startling one. "Hey, bear. I'm a human, walking down the trail. Just passing through. Visiting, on my way to Stehekin."
"Hey, bear."
Literally the only words I heard for ... I don't know, 36 hours? I didn't expect the solitude to be so heavy.
I spent the last day pretty worried about getting back to my car. I guess that's another gender difference - women must have an easier time hitch hiking. But I got to the road, and five minutes later somebody was taking me to my car, we spent the trip talking about which trails were best.

Here's a picture from the first night on the trail, at Fisher Basin Camp.

It doesn't do anything. Just sits there. No helicopters, no mushroom stamps, no hanging towels off it. No fun
Thanks for ruining everything I thought I knew... I should flag you.2 -

Way to much information.
Were you not already aware of what menstruation entails?
Yes, but from a distance you know whats happening, but you dont really think about it... This is like seeing an accident from your car, then suddenly your extracting a broken corps from the wreckage. To total different things.
It feels like we are a broken corps, or if one has that many symptoms they may want to be one.1 -

You just need someone to make you feel alive, while your going though that, bring you heating pad for your back, rub your feet, make you dinner. Get you cran-apple blueberry pie and ice cream at midnight if you need or want it....

You can't hang anything off the vulva or make a decent stamp from it, but you can gift a custom molded one to your man ... Money clip ... "Touches you" every single time he needs to buy something.

Women can use very vague excuses to go home from work. "Sorry, boss, female troubles."0
