Seriously women...unless Tom is an uncle, husband, relative, friend or boss PLLEAASSEEE stop talking about it, using it as an excuse and telling everyone in the world the details of your 'time of the month'. Guys I KNOW don't want to hear about it and most other chicks, like me, don't either!!!

Please join the campaign to stop talking about TOM! stop.png

:laugh: BLEH!

    I'll be honest, every time I saw the acronym "TOM" I didn't know what it meant. Thanks for clarifying!

    Sorry you're upset. An option would be just to move past any posts talking about this.

    I saw one today and didn't know what TOM was at first, then it hit me because they were using it as an excuse for gaining weight. ROFL post, where do I sign :wink:

    Almost 50% of the population menstruates at some point in their lives, and it has a huge impact on so many things health-wise...we're just supposed to suck it up and pretend it doesn't exist because it makes a few people squeamish? Shame about periods comes from shame about fertility (sex) and shame about being female, both outdated concepts. Once upon a time, it was considered to be embarrassing to talk about pregnancy as well.

    Periods happen. :smile:

    You realize that you rehashed TOM, right?

    And BTW, without TOM, you would not be alive today. Just saying.

    Oh goodness people (some of you).....TOM is nothing but a biological function.....like sneezing....coughing.....hic-cupping......burping......crying......blinking......
    If TOM didn't so greatly affect LOTS of peoples weight struggles I'm sure it would never be brought up....like when was the last time you saw a post about sneezing or blinking or coughing??
    C'mom...aren't we all adults here and just KNOW that it's being talked about for an adult reason and nothing more?
    My gosh...isn't there like 10 bazillion more important things in this world to be upset about? Just sayin'.......
