But the question begs itself.... Is the spy merely making you think the spy is sensitive?
Does the spy have you right where the spy wants you?
Did you not invite the spy to your country?
The spy got cold feet and stayed home.
I'm telling you man: Worst.Spy.Evah!
...so you think.

I'm not brainwashed by patriarchy because I think periods are gross. Newsflash people all blood is freaking gross. Especially when it's mucus-y and coming from my lady bits once a month for 2-3 day and it smells awful. I understand the process and purpose fully. I'm not ashamed of it. But I am disgusted. And I have every right to be. So what if it's natural. Poop and pee are natural and they are still gross. It seems to me that third wave feminism has good ideas and building blocks. But it can't see the forest for the trees. WoC, disabled women, queer women, issues of biological women's health, all need work. But which issues come first is splintering us. And still self serrated. I'm babbling...
Agreed. It is gross. And it is painful. And I FEEL gross the whole time I have my period.
I flatly refuse to have sex while I have my period. I don't even want to cuddle. Hell, I don't mind if I don't see or even talk to him for a week.
I love men and I love sex, but any boyfriend who tries to give me advice on how sex will make me feel better during my period,
is welcome to go and find himself another girl. Conversation over.
I am hardly what you'd call inhibited; I'm sorry, it's just fucking gross and I don't feel good, during my period anyway.
Yet, when I hit menopause, I will miss it terribly. Go figure. I feel exactly the same way

No to period sex.
I will miss it when it's gone. It's irregular now so I can't predict when it will happen, and it's very disorienting. I liked the natural rhythm of it.
And to the person who said there's not much blood, are you a man? Seriously!

No oral or manual during that time though lol. Just a quickie intercourse.
I'd just use the backdoor 
Ew, no lol. That's where poop comes out of.

Lol I wouldn't say great bc you cant really have foreplay. But I don't mind it if the man is in the mood and just needs to get his.

Who says you can't have foreplay?
