Blaming hormones...

There are hundreds of posts on here where women are saying how they feel about something- but blaming being menopausal or pre-menstrual. Surely we've moved beyond this?We were getting towards a place where women we're allowed to hand and express feelings-even "gasp" negative or angry ones. And now we're back to "Time of the month, love?" I could weep. And I am neither pre menstrual or menopausal.

Although it's great that women feel happier talking about menopause, I do find that it can also have a negative effect.
Caught a younger colleague mention that older women are a bit ditsier due to menopause. I can only assume he is talking about the brain fog some women get, which has been extensively talked about.
So great to highlight but not great that all menopausal women are thought of as less capable of being quick thinking
