    I promise you that if I ever had to post about my period, I'd call it my period. But please, please, let's all just stop posting about our periods!

    let's just stop the madness, please! this is not a new subject to any one here - there's no need to discuss it, complain about it, or pretend we had NO IDEA that we gain a few pounds every. freaking. month. of our adulthood.

    We must keep people aware of it.
    Until there is a cure.

    Being pregnant is the only one I know of and that only "cures" it for 9 months. And just look at the side effects....

    Okay, so I swore I wouldn't talk about my period - but whatever, I'll talk about everyone elses' ... really, I don't know how women can make it all those years without understanding how it works. It blows my mind on a regular basis.

    1. "TOM" takes less letters to type.
    2. We're women. We share.
    3. "period" is also a euphemism
    4. Isnt there a thread discussing exercise calories?? *leaving*

    ........ you know what? I typed out a huge reply pointing out why your train of thought is flawed, but then I realized you left, and arguing with myself is just silly.

    Uh, no. Then how would the eggs escape? They'd just grow in to a baby inside you if you did that.

    Don't the eggs need to be painted white first? With the cork, no egg painting gets accomplished.
