I think my fluid grossness scale is strongly color based: you got your clears, then the reds, then the yellow/greens, and then the browns. Tears, not gross at all. Sweat, meh. And I'll put a cut finger in my mouth. But piss, now we're getting icky...

It really just means the nice-girl filter is off and we just say/do what's on our minds. This seems irrational to those who don't realize how much we DON'T say when we're not hurting constantly.

This month, instead of a hut, I will create a fort made out of blankets and couch cushions in my living room, and it shall be glorious.

I retreat to the guest room futon for the 2 worst nights of my period. I call it my period hut. I like it there. The harder futon is comfier when I have cramps, as it forces me to sleep on my side. Also: period farts.

The 2014 version of The Hut totally needs to happen. It'll have WiFi, cable, comfy blankets and pillows — and, of course, all the snacks your heart could desire.

I was at my dad's for winter break when I got mine for the first time. Of course, he was on call and got called into work the day it happened and I was home watching my younger brothers. I called him at the hospital and a couple of the women that work with him took me to lunch and a movie because he had surgery and…

Seriously! You wouldn't have to negotiate that awkward "Sex now?" "No sex now, hole is hurty," thing with your partner. You'd just walk down hill to the hut, no questions asked. And all the other bitches from your hood would be there! SLEEPOVER! Who brought the Midol!?

That is a terrible superpower.

Does that mean my screenplay about a group of girls having a crazy night out while they're simultaneously synced up on their periods is zeitgeist right now??

I understand that being sent to a hut because you're "unclean" is not a good thing and the huts probably aren't too nice but every time I hear about something like that I think damn if I wouldn't love a weeklong vacation each month.

My mom threw me a party for getting my first period and it freaked a lot of my friend's parents out. I'm not saying we all need to throw period parties but it would be nice if we didn't pretend that periods are any more disgusting than anything else the human body does. Especially when so many women and girls have…

Oh what we don't have to go in the hut anymore?

I had something similar happen with an emotionally abusive boyfriend I had once. He ended up miserable and I had a blast. A trend that, according to Facebook, continues to this day. Sorry not sorry, dude.

And they have the nerve to accuse women of being shallow and preferring looks over a Nice Guy like them. The irony is completely lost on them.

Ain't that the truth? My ex — a skinny, bald, dorky type who has been nicknamed "Gollum" by my friends — left me and our three kids last year for a coworker. Which was awful at first but freed me to upgrade to a gorgeous guy with a full head of hair and droolworthy muscles. Who also treats me like a princess and…

Thanks for this. It explains so much WTF-esque behavior to me.

Yes I am ;-)

This happened to me decades ago in my misspent youth. Guy I loved with all my heart wanted an open relationship. I didn't, but said okay. I got a date the same day and he was SHOCKED. I can still taste the sweet revenge. It never occurred to him that I would get as much action as I did. He was, in all fairness,…

Totally. It especially does not surprise me given they're on Fetlife. It's the OP's cluelessness re: his own girlfriend's appeals that made it so LOLOMGWTFRUFK to me.
