If men had periods

Jump to: Newest in thread

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Could we use them as an excuse for everything, like not reading profiles ?

Or would scientists have found a cure by now ?

And how would marketing companies market tampons to men, with fighter jet wings and extra bulge for maximum effect ?

All this and more.

There would definitely be competitive perioding. PMSing would be a real thing and special holiday allowances granted for period related problems monthly.

Blood wouldn't be something to shy about and discuss in hushed tones with flipping ridiculous expressions - men would just declare it and it'll be fine.

According to the only source for this I could find , a pubmed article, 27.87 mL was the volume of some mens erections in a study. So 2 tablespoons isn't much more actually.

When you say "science" would have come up with a solution, what do you mean? Science is neither male or female, but scientists are and there are many female scientists. So, are these female scientists incompetent, or is there no "solution" to be found by either men or women? There is, however a scientific method to preventing periods - hysterectomies. These should be freely and easily available to all women who don't like having periods.

"If men had periods, I'm pretty certain sanitary products would be tax free

Why are you certain? I'm pretty certain that if men did have periods, they'd just get on with it and work non-stop from age 16 to 68 as they currently do, but without time out to "bring up" kids."

That's because they prefer to leave the child care to the women. Most of them, anyway

How many men ring work and say ‘I can’t get in today as my child is ill?’ Well single dads but not dad’s who are still with the kid’s mum! I’ve never heard if it in any of my workplaces!

I used to do it but I think part of the reason that many don't is because of work attitudes towards the situation. Many companies didn't recognise men as caregivers until recently and most still won't.

Perhaps if men had periods they would learn to live with the constant aches, pains and horomonal turmoil and make less of a fuss on the little things like colds and flu.

Perhaps they would also have and more deeper understanding and respect for womanhood...

On the plus side, leaving the EU means we don't have to go through all 28 member states to have VAT reforms, so maybe we can remove the tax on tampons, double glazing, and child car seats, as all those have 'luxury' tax too and i'm fairly sure they are all important

Womens birth control was pushed to market within 10 years of development (by two women, I might add) in a time where safety standards were much more lax.

Now, strangely, safety standards for pharmaceuticals is much higher.

During the last 10 years I frequently deprioritised my work for childcare arrangements. Because I was making that decision it was easier than for those impacted by the patriarchal assumptions that still prevail in so many organisations.. Much work is being done, but unable to be as effectivel as it could be, because the imbalance of power between the genders still prevails. Dominator hierarchies are still the predominant way of governing organisations. Until those are transformed our progress in this area will be limited and down to individuals just trying to do their best with awareness.

Actually, quite a lot. Google "Women Leaders in UK Healthcare"

Actually there is an increase compared to what there was when I last looked - but has the assumptive framework underpinning it’s governance and the prioritisation of funding changed?

Sorry, but this is just an internet myth. The reason male contraceptive pills were unsuccessful is because of the basic physiological differences between men and women. It’s easy to fool the ovaries with a very low dose of hormones to make the ovaries think a woman is pregnant, and so the ovaries will stop ovulation. However, there’s no similar situation for male sperm production; there’s no normal state where sperm production stops - in short, all trials ended with the permanent destruction of a man's ability to produce sperm.

Why am I a "clever clogs"? It's just basic medical science. Scientific effort and resources go into all areas of human suffering, whether male or female. The different sexes have both common and separate issues that are dealt with by the medical research community, but physiologically, women are more complicated than men. The reproductive process alone has many different disciplines of study dedicated to it. As for your first point 3, I completely agree. As to the second part of your second point 3, why am I an idiot?

There have been studies into the "pain bias" that shows how women are less likely to be taken as seriously as men when complaining of acute pain, are less likely to be given opioids than men, are likely to wait much longer in A&E, and when prescribed drugs the waiting times are longer.

They have started to trial free sanitary products in poorer areas of Scotland. All Secondary Schools also have a what is called a Red box (why red, probably the worst name for it, but hey ho) so young ladies can have sanitary products when required.

If men’s lives were debilitated because of the pain, the mess and the cost I’m fairly sure something would have happened by now.

Interestingly though many women politicians also don’t think there’s an issue with the cost or VAT on sanitary products. Strange breed.

2019 and we have young girls who can’t get to school because their parents can’t/won’t buy them sanitary products. It’s shameful really. Girls are starting their periods earlier and cannot possibly get these things for themselves. But you can get involved, look at the Red Box Project and support where you can

I answered your question (it was a yes/no) and I’ve said on here my opinion. Not sure why I have to give you an education on period poverty for the benefit of getting to post my opinion? There’s plenty of resources and google is your friend, “period poverty” will find you all the info you need. I’m not campaigning, I’m commenting. Plenty of people have explained on the thread, that you don’t agree is absolutely fine.
