You just say, “Oh hey, there’s uh, ya know, girlie stuff goin on this week.” And if he doesn’t get it then you say, “I’m on my period.” Then you say, “I don’t mind, but if you do I certainly understand.”
But a mood killer? If a guy isn’t mature enough to understand that sometimes you bleed out of your hooha, perhaps you shouldn’t be letting him tap that?
I don’t know how you girls live with those things.
I’m just glad SOMEONE does.
I totally forgot that the OP is still in high school. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that! ) Yeah, in high school the guys would, almost without exception, be totally grossed out if I said I had my period. So back then, I’d just grab the hand attempting to undo my jeans and shake my head no. If he persisted (besides getting put on my “jerk” list), I’d say, “Uh, I don’t think you want to do that right now,” and he’d get the hint.
Anyone who *still *persisted found his ass on the floor as I walked out the door. I don’t need that shit, and at that time I was not willing to have someone touch my naughty bits while I was on my period.
Some guys learn to like it, or at least not be grossed out by it, as they get older and it becomes less “gross”. Some don’t. Either way is cool by me, as long as we’re clearly communicating.
I’m not squeamish about it and I don’t see why the guy should be…but…it’s not all that pleasent. Blood is simply not a good lubricant. It get’s sticky. Plus it ruins the sheets. Plus it ruins the friction. I can’t feel anything.
Fortunatly there is whole planet of sex beyond vaginal intercourse. Oral. 69. Anal. Mutual masterbation. Etc.
So I’d say “I have my period, why don’t we…”
Bolding mine.
My favorite ex-girlfriend would use that phrase. “My aunt Flo is visiting,” or 'in town for the weekend." And like you said above, my ex could be even hornier when her aunt was in town. So we would decide where we wanted to go from there. It made me a bit squeamish at first, but it’s a part of life and all that.
Exactly!
