Transwomen have periods too you know! Just no bleeding

First time I’ve seen the word ‘cisters’ What the actual?

If a biological man is experiencing actual bleeding from their genitals then they need medical help.

Or mental health professionals.

Bleeding is not a symptom, it's the main fucking event!!!

Potato! Love it! True.

Haha, what’s this, trans stigmata? And we get criticised for calling it a cult.

Really, honestly, I’d say the most likely reason for your cramps is being full of shit. Maybe eat some prunes and sit on the toilet for a while.
If you’d ever had anything approaching a real period you wouldn’t want another one.
I get the shits when I’m on as well, as well as crippling cramps, flow so heavy I can’t go out for at least a day and a half, exhaustion and irritability. Diarrhoea was so bad in my early teens that I actually shat myself at school. I was mortified, it was a horrible experience.

Anyway, I find my period gives me the shits. Is that what they mean?

I'm looking for a buyer to take me fibroids off my hands. One careless owner, well run in vag and womb, with one remaining ovary and a nice ambience. Perfect starter pack. All this can be yours for One million quid and a promise you'll shut the fuck up for ever. Any takers?

I didn't know I could identify my way out of the horror (actually mine aren't that bad) of having periods, plus that would be a much nicer way of preventing pregnancy "not today sperm, I identify as a gay man"

You wanna know why I'm writing this tweet thread? Bc I've been laid up in bed all day with awful cramps

What exactly is cramping and what is causing it to cramp?

Maybe you should go and try and have a poo? That can also cause abdominal cramps.

This breaks my heart. I just feel like everything a woman was born to do is being taken away,

But to be fair, if they want periods they can have them, I'd send mine off with ribbons, bows, bells and the whole shabang! But the sad fact is even with this new trans-munchausen-menstruation, we still have to have them.

If you read the words of this article you can see that this person gets their power kicks from annoying women, so we just say yes you have them or men claiming to have them too would just remove the power and would be far more effective than trying to fight it. If they want them, let them have their fun. Just smile and nod, you can't reason with crazy.

I'm now more than EIGHT years past menopause - and I had hideous, prolonged, very heavy and painful periods for almost 40 years before menopause.

My menopause symptoms are the same now as they were a couple of months in - not very pleasant at all.

Please - do not try to compare a few weeks of discomfort with women's real, persistent, prolonged, often agonising experiences.

Enthusiasm - just shows how much ignorance there is around periods. It wasn't until I got to university and found some new candid female friends that I realised nearly every woman has constipation leading up to the event, and diarrhea for the first few days.

Not quite as cute as 'ooooh cramping and buying all the chocolate!'

If the people responding were real friends to Lifeofbria instead of just being performatively woke, they'd be saying go to a doctor.

Maybe it is the lunar cycle and they are actually trans wolves ?

There was a great thread about a month ago where posters listed their symptoms

Trans don’t take progesterone though do they ? You only need it to protect the uterine lining. So I assume they just take oestrogen ?
A pp mentioned that surely they simply have the same symptoms as post meno women on HRT? Post meno women on HRT still have periods, HRT is tailored through the month to keep levels of oestrogen and progesterone balanced. A drop in progesterone triggers the shedding of the uterine lining. Unless a woman has had a hysterectomy, in which case she wouldn’t need progesterone.

Enthusiasm i thought that was just me until that subject came up with some friends!

I wonder if like many women transwomen suffer from diarrhea around time of their period

Mmm doubt it as there is something not quite so feminine in talking about soft stinky shit

Just googled it, and it seems you can buy 'tampons' that bleed to simulate periods!! Good grief.

I do think it's worth remembering this is a dopey mind-fart by one trans woman.

Not an offering by the TransHiveMind. Trans women are as different from each other as the rest of the human race are.

Absolutely right, but then you see a whole load of other people agreeing, offering consolation, sympathizing etc. One person's tweets, thousands seeing tweet and believing.
I wonder when these people grow up and realise how dumb they were,will they be embarrassed?

As someone who partook in trying to educate kids in science for a few years I would equate it to attempting to put out a bonfire of ignorance with a thimble full of rationality while having a great big Ofsted shaped monkey sat on your back whipping you with the last of inadequacy.

Science illiteracy is planted and fertilized by the huge tractor of consumerism. Logical thought and reliance on evidence is so bad for sales of utterly dubious amd overpriced things you know. And when you are under immense pressure to get them to jump through exam hoops actually getting them all to think critically for themselves is just impossible. You have to deliver stuff with an authoritarian "believe this" in order to get them to regurgitate correctly in the exam. I think some effort is made to engage the science based evidence based thought processes. I certainly did. But I ended up leaving due to stress because of that extra effort. In my opinion far to much emphasis on content and not enough of actual scientific process and riguer. No idea what the new syllabi are like though.

It's depressing. Really depressing. And this kind of nonsense is the result.

Thanks for the tip, heman - another one with the menopausal sweats out of control in this heat.

Only someone who doesn't have the PITA of actual periods would try and make it into a pissing contest about who has the best ones.

So now male bodies are having periods? Oh dear, they really are stretching credibility now. I think this may be a step too far, even for the most woke.

Is the next step the transplantation of female ovaries and wombs into male bodies, do you think? How hard, medically wise, would it be to shove the bowels out of the way to make room for a donor's female reproductive organs?

Thanks Herman will get some of those, I have a bit of an Amazon order to put in today anyway :)
