You are a misogynist. Women have menstrsul cycles. Blood comes out vaginas. Get over it.
heh. settle down love.
Why do periods make so many men so uncomfortable? The bargain was posted in good faith. Let’s keep oppressive/marginalising jokes out of it.
@miq: Thank you @miq for pointing this assumption of mine out. I don't know this and I shouldn't have gendered my comment. Regardless of the commenter's gender, their views still perpetuate misogynistic and sexist discourses/ideals. Both men and women can be misogynistic. I am interested to hear your thoughts here. And other's thoughts too.
@ldp: I don't know. I reckon you can be pretty undisturbed by menstrual cycles and still find the above comment humorous.
You can expect the same sort of jokes come up in any deal that is any way related to our sexual organs or sex in general, regardless of gender.
The usual recycled lame 'joke'.
I agree with your sentiment. But it's not lame, it's oppressive. And it's not a joke, it's a genuine reflection of the commenter's sexist views. And those views reflect our patriarchal society.
Look I disagree but I'm going to try and keep this constructive. What exactly is sexist about the joke? It's a one line joke employing the dual meaning behind the word bloody. I feel like if you are picking up any further subtext from this joke it was not intended by the person making it and is definitely not universal. If you wanna be angry be angry that it's the same low hanging joke that gets made each time.
@Cheaplikethebird: For me it is more to do with society's broad discomfort when discussing periods, particularly men. Unfortunately, for many people the only time they feel comfortable talking about periods is when they find a space to make stupid jokes like the one above, or when they assume/suggest that a woman's behaviour is linked to her period. Jokes like that promote attitudes which are disrespectful of women and their bodies. It trickles down into the minds of children and teenagers. I work with high schoolers and I constantly hear male students teasing female students about their periods. It really upsets a lot of female students. The "joke" above reminds me of those cruel male high schoolers.
Either make a respectful mature comment, or move on.
glad they brought the "retro" undies back \o/
Sounds like a bloody good deal to me!
