    Oh this was about your exercising and period question. I don't agree with how people responded, I just think they were a little taken back by your question because...it's just your period. I think they couldn't understand what you think would possibly happen if you exercised on your period...because it's not like it will make you bleed more or rip your vagina wall or die or something. We've all had our periods for years now and are very knowledgable about our periods being women, so they replied in harsh ways. But to a lot of people, it was a really common sense question so I think that's why they replied the way they did.


    well that is not strictly true, for me i know that excercise does make me bleed heavier....i have no issues working out at home during AF but i wouldnt work out at a gym because of this.
    just because women know about their period if you are new to excercising then you might not be so sure about how your body would react during that time of the month.
    when i was in school having period cramps was a legit reason to get out of PE :)

    Sorry you feel this way, you won't be the first & you won't be the last. I know a few people who have stopped using this site because of this & the weirdos. It happens everywhere. As everyone else has said. Just ignore it :smile:

    There are some good people on here, but some jerks too. Of course its a click, these people just wanna be on here to discourage people from losing, so they have someone to pick on as always.

    Comes with free forums. Bunch of tards on here pushing up their post count.

    I thought your question was completely innocent and a valid one to ask. Just like any other... hence why we are on this site in the first place.

    I didn't read every single reply in your other thread, but I think you're possibly being a little too sensitive. The "nasty" or "rude" or "mean" replies that I did read (again, I didn't read ALL so I may be way off base here) were not indicating that YOU were stupid, but rather that whoever advised you rest and not workout was... As has been said - there are no stupid questions - but there are a lot of people who don't search the forums first, and I sometimes see the EXACT SAME QUESTION being asked two or three times in the sidebar of my home page here. It's ridiculous! But, your question is one that I have not seen here before (maybe it's been asked, I don't know, but I've never seen it so it can't be asked that often).

    I asked you on your post if you were serious or joking. You didn't answer. So many posts are done as a joke, I don't know if people are serious or not any more. You could have answered my question. If I was sure you were being serious, I would have given you a serious answer. :flowerforyou:

    There are people on here who think they know everything. It's quite a turnoff, but I've found more wonderful people. I always like new friends!

    DONT LEAVE!!! There are a lot of great people as well. This has happened to me and some of my MFP friends-- don't know what's wrong with people! Obviously if people post asking for help- they are admitting they don't have ALL the answers. You have to expect it and ignore it. Take the helpful comments and forget the rest!

    Some people are mean and jerky and buttholie and stuff. But that's on the innaweb AND in real life. I read the thread and some weren't the nicest but I think most people really thought you were joking. You shouldn't leave this site because someone was being what your perceive as mean. Especially if it is helping you better yourself. Just stay off the forums...there's always google.

    And I'm not one of those people who think there is no such thing as a stupid question. I hear them all damn day.

    Yeah, just ignore them. Sometimes I get so frustrated with how rude some people are to other members, I have felt the need to jump in, but I'm going to even stop that. Ignore them and read the helpful messages in the string.

    Some people just get off on making others feel bad. I'm thinking they are miserable people themselves.

    By all means though, stay! This is a fantastic place to log calories, exercise, and get the motivation from friends and success stories to reach you goals.
