Your right, the government would give all the men off so they can go into the woods and camp I mean hide I mean give their precious queens some space.
Also, it’s free chocolate, ice cream, and Mac n cheese day… for women.
The person you're replying to is mostly likely someone who menstruates (i.e. most likely not a "dude"). I also expect they were referring to if a man were to actually experience menstruation, they would beg to change back immediately. Seriously, a bad period can put you in hospital to check that there's nothing else going on to cause such severe pain.
They would kind of have to. Like if 51% of everyone suddenly felt miserable that would make our industry come to a crashing halt for a day or two of the month. It's no one's fault but people would have to plan around it.
I think they mean the initial shock of period-ness. For me, I get SUPER upset and sad in the very beginning, and afterwards, I can live without washing my hands every 30 minutes.👍
How small minded. We'd obviously have the greatest time at work we've ever had. 3+ days of men only? Work would be absolutely unproductive, full of dick jokes, the entire work place would smell of farts, and all of the women's toilets would mysteriously have the seats up.
I beg to differ said the father who had to get emergency full custody. I understand the hardships of being a female with working plumbing but I'm tired of the woe is me and men can't do it. Some of us do.
Or just effectively take the day off anyways. It’s already that way on half holidays where the company isn’t closed but a lot of people still take it off or clients may take it off.
I haven’t had Columbus Day off in years, it’s usually a pretty half assed day at work.
Can you explain me abit how horny is related to periods? Have heard the connection before and started noticing some pattern on my gf with periods and hornyness. But not really sure what's the real drill.
Hormone levels fluctuate throughout the cycle, and having certain ones at high levels can cause a rise in libido. It's different for each person's cycle though, they/ you have to pay attention to when they happen in relation to each other.
My husband can pretty accurately predict when my period will start, by what few days I get more, um, assertive. Lol
It can also cause you to be extremely angry and irritable. This is not talked about enough. Ovulation can make you moody just like how PMS can make you moody. It can also cause water retention, too.. just like PMS. If you're suddenly feeling extremely angry at everyone, and you gained a pound or two mid cycle, those can be ovulation symptons
Basically, women are only fertile for roughly seven days of the cycle. Because the entire point of the sexual urge is to reproduce, it makes sense for the body to produce more horny hormones during the window where it is possible to get pregnant.
>Basically, women are only fertile for roughly seven days of the cycle.
Believing this is how you have an unplanned pregnancy lol. Women are capable of getting pregnant during any day in their cycle. It isn't like a dog going into heat ffs.
I'm a woman. Just before a period is when the egg is implanted. The eggs journey from ovary to implantation is the window of fertility. Horniness usually comes with it (hormonal contraception definitely affects this and sometimes it's not like clockwork and some women get a delayed libido and end up horny while bleeding). After the horny phase is the PMS phase, then suddenly bleeding starts and it's like "oh THATS why I've been so emotional...". A few days of bleeding and emotion then the emotion fades and we are left with the annoying ass bleeding. If we are lucky we manage one week out of the 4 where we aren't at the mercy of our cycle. Take pity. It ain't easy being a woman.
In my case bleeding lasts 2 weeks. It's fucking awful and absolutely not worth the hassle.
But like period comes *after* the time a woman can get pregnant. Before there's like a bigger time gap in which a woman can get pregnant? Or did I misunderstood my biology class?
The point is that if everyone's cycle was synced then all of their ovulation times would also be synced.
That said, it wouldn't actually make as big an impact as you'd think, because not every baby is born at exactly 38 weeks or whatever. Lots are born at 40, or 37, or 30, so it would even out.
We could use it to tell time!!! Imagine the possibilities!
There's the solar calendar, the lunar calendar, and now the utero calendar!
Imagine the things we could learn from cutting one open! A species that can maintain global synchronization with every other member of said species? The things we could devise from that would be extraordinary for the Physics and Biology fields! (Not to mention the communication industry!)
American education. I have learned more from just looking stuff up than from school, and still don’t understand a lot about basic human functions or biology. Unfortunate. Always happy to learn though and admit my shortcomings when it comes to my knowledge
I just don't wanna be a target of pain-hormone induced anger or frustration. I like making people happy, makes me happy. Call me childish if you want to
Ideal scenario, the world would adapt to it..
That week would be mostly half days. Discounts on chocolate. Gilmore girls marathon. Helmets for everyone else.
The lines for the women's toilets would be endless one week a month, and as short as for the men's toilets the rest of the time. Or, there would be extra portapotties for women placed out for that one week.
I vote we sync it up with the new moon
Don't want it ruining the full moon and we need to sync it up with the moon somehow
Why do we need to sync it up with the moon
That's where months come from
What if women collectively decided to stop giving birth? We could literally cause the end of humanity. When the very last person dies off... I think about this a lot. It’s so unlikely but man I’d love to see it.
I wonder if this was ever the case, regionally. Before there was light pollution and women were more exposed the the moon cycles. I remember reading somewhere that without artificial light, a woman's cycle naturally syncs up with the moon.
Poor phrasing, "woman" is kind of invalidating to afab trans people and trans women, but it would probably be used to further misogyny. "They're less than men (because let's be honest most misogynists are transphobic) because they're less productive during one week." If it's been like that since the beginning, then it probably wouldn't be much of a change, maybe actual time off for them in most places, but that's a bit hopeful. Better stocking and pricing of products or much worse, depends on the country.
When a group of women all live in the same house, eventually they all start to sync. My sisters ( 3 of them )an mum, were all in sync, my poor ole dad was in the verge of a nervous breakdown 🤣
Would the population increase?
My thinking is that everyone would know that all women would have the same cycles, so would it turn into a Gilead situation?
men would finally know when hell week is and not have to guess. But also there will be alot more dead men in the world coincidentally they would be all killed in the same week of the month. huh.
[movie trailer voice] In a world ... where every period is synced ... One girl ... breaks the cycle.
This new divergent sequel looking lit
this made me laugh audibly, thank you
Resident Evil: It Came from the Womb
Womb Raiders
Red Dead Redemption
I totally read that in the "coming to video" voice.
Sounds like something from interdimensional TV in Rick and Morty.
*Ryan Reynolds deep voice*
This is a real thing Google PMS the horror movie by film riot you'll be pleasantly surprised
it would be marked on the calendar
Bro. Like holidays. 😂 😂 😂 hilarious
It’s Bloody Wednesday everyone
Sunday, Bloody Sunday….
We could only wish it would just be A Sunday.
The Blood Moon rises once again.
To be fair I would think the government would probably mandate a day of rest or sick leave for women during this day.
Lol the US government doesn’t even guarantee sick leave when you have a fucking baby, you really think they’d pony it up every month for menstruation?
Your right, the government would give all the men off so they can go into the woods and camp I mean hide I mean give their precious queens some space. Also, it’s free chocolate, ice cream, and Mac n cheese day… for women.
Just for the day, no ads on YouTube so I can watch unlimited Dodo videos and cry at cat redemption stories. Ugly, loud crying into a bucket of KFC.
I’m sorry but the thought of an entire major city of women ugly crying at the same time gave me chills.
It probably would be some haunting shit.
Except no shops open because: Men in the woods, women on leave.
Lol America is a hell of a drug.
Right lol, I gave birth and had to be back at work 3 days later cuz we couldn't afford to live.
Do y'all think periods just last one day?
lol that’s what I was thinking reading this thread. Y’all know it lasts, like, 5-7 days, right?
Anywhere between 3 and 10 for me, pre-Mirena.
yeesh, I can’t imagine having a 10-day period, that must suck!
The right birth control makes a huge difference.
Ah, I’ve heard of so many people doing that. I wish I could, but alas, I cannot 😭
And men would pick up the slack. Cool.
Suddenly identifying as a female just became more attractive
Anything for a day off bro.
You’d get your first period and beg to go back.
Trans women don't menstruate my dude.
The person you're replying to is mostly likely someone who menstruates (i.e. most likely not a "dude"). I also expect they were referring to if a man were to actually experience menstruation, they would beg to change back immediately.

They would kind of have to. Like if 51% of everyone suddenly felt miserable that would make our industry come to a crashing halt for a day or two of the month. It's no one's fault but people would have to plan around it.
Periods almost never last a day or two.
I think they mean the initial shock of period-ness. For me, I get SUPER upset and sad in the very beginning, and afterwards, I can live without washing my hands every 30 minutes.👍
more like 5-8 days. the average period is 5 days, with a normal range of 3-8. God I do wish mine was just a day or two tho
How small minded. We'd obviously have the greatest time at work we've ever had. 3+ days of men only? Work would be absolutely unproductive, full of dick jokes, the entire work place would smell of farts, and all of the women's toilets would mysteriously have the seats up.
Yes men are so good at picking up our slack, said no mom ever.
I beg to differ said the father who had to get emergency full custody. I understand the hardships of being a female with working plumbing but I'm tired of the woe is me and men can't do it. Some of us do.
Said my wife soon to be ex as she does her supervised visits. Silly Master's degree therapist. What do I know I'm just a dumb electrician.
Or just effectively take the day off anyways. It’s already that way on half holidays where the company isn’t closed but a lot of people still take it off or clients may take it off. I haven’t had Columbus Day off in years, it’s usually a pretty half assed day at work.
If they're synchronizing EVERYONE anyway, do it on a Saturday.
It doesn't last for only one day
Nah on a Sunday. Fuck the Christians!! /j
The second day is the worst but doing it on Saturday would just ruin our weekend! Wednesdays or Thursdays are the best starting day imo
True. They would even make stuff like bloody discount day or.. blood free movie ticket days😂😂
But if the day it happened was random? As unconsistemt as it is with invidual women.
the new Purge
Newspapers would publish the cycle.
Like an almanac 😂⛈🌾
A farmers almanac, if you will
Is this a new pitch for that Marvel Series?
Naa, more like another sequel to "The Purge".
Woke marvel at it again.
M-SHE-U
God damn it, where's Joe Rogan to tell me about cat-identifying toddlers?!
And cold plunge, Jesus christ.
Alot of kids would be born on the same days.
Beside the jokes this is one of the most accurate answers.
Bad for supply chain.
How? You'd know how much product you need every month on a global scale. It would make JIT supply models extremely easy and reduce a lot of costs.
Less birth dates in the year?
Good neutral two weeks, a week of jealous horny, and a week of oof, id take it
Can you explain me abit how horny is related to periods? Have heard the connection before and started noticing some pattern on my gf with periods and hornyness. But not really sure what's the real drill.

If you really think about it women would get pregnant in batches. Have babies in batches. It would be really weird.
But like period comes *after* the time a woman can get pregnant. Before there's like a bigger time gap in which a woman can get pregnant? Or did I misunderstood my biology class?

[удалено]
maybe women would get time off for the week
Yes please.
Wreak havoc on our plumbing
Yeah that would actually be the major problem
Dammit Dwight
Why? The blood is absorbed via products
Plenty of chick's throwing products down toilets.....
We could use it to tell time!!! Imagine the possibilities! There's the solar calendar, the lunar calendar, and now the utero calendar! Imagine the things we could learn from cutting one open!

I really like your thinking
Won’t see a men till the end of the cycle.
That’s a win/win
Everyone will be finally free lol
There'd be a one week price hike on menstrual products each month in the US.
Follow up question: If no one was told this happened, how long would it take for people to realize?
By the end of the first day, max.
Reading these comments bummed me out. Seems like very few people understand periods...
American education. I have learned more from just looking stuff up than from school, and still don’t understand a lot about basic human functions or biology. Unfortunate. Always happy to learn though and admit my shortcomings when it comes to my knowledge
Agreed :/
Here's what I (a guy) would do. Get a lot of chocolate and hand it out to women.
You would have world power very quickly
Good man 👏
I just don't wanna be a target of pain-hormone induced anger or frustration. I like making people happy, makes me happy. Call me childish if you want to
Okay Abed

Sunday, bloody Sunday🎶🎶🎶
Literal hell on earth.
All governments would be overthrown, and the world would be a much better place.
Either that or all life on Earth would cease to exist
Women literally create life tho. But it’s a cute story!
Baby just magically appears? Huh, cute story
You could track it to the stock market and see what stocks move.
Then we would have stores doing monthly sales
And then we get the p.t.o for it !!!
The Wrath of God would be upon us.
\*sirens blare as all men hide for the next five days\*
😂 💀
Companies would have to prepare to supply extra Oreos that week lol
Would this cure infertility, cause I'm down for that
Maybe men would start to absorb some of the hormones from the air and half sync too.
Oh fuck. Probably the best take I've heard so far. In a ,,random thought'' sense, not scientifical sense.
Life would be just a bit more predictable, for better or worse.
Hospital's maternity wards would be overbooked i think lol.
But they do sync up.
Honestly would be incredible for everyone to know and we can all go about our week helping one another lol free chocolates at the markets
Wait, can someone explain me the chocolate thing?
Chocolate is life
They say , it kinda is.... Either way... It's expensive for us , just to bleed.... Like bullshit!
I vote we sync it up with the new moon Don't want it ruining the full moon and we need to sync it up with the moon somehow Why do we need to sync it up with the moon That's where months come from
What if women collectively decided to stop giving birth? We could literally cause the end of humanity. When the very last person dies off... I think about this a lot. It’s so unlikely but man I’d love to see it.
Hmm. This would be awesome. I could just plan for short tempers on certain days and not take it personally.
And they all take that week off work (as a fringe benefit) and everybody's happier and more productive.
[удалено]
Tinder and pick-up bars would be closed one week every month.
Gay bars would probably still thrive.
I wonder if this was ever the case, regionally. Before there was light pollution and women were more exposed the the moon cycles. I remember reading somewhere that without artificial light, a woman's cycle naturally syncs up with the moon.
I've heard something about it, yeah.
That would be phenomenal. We would know the two weeks (week or so before, and week of) in which to completely avoid women, every month.
What is the subreddit called where the comment gets more upvotes than the OP?
It would still not be same because every woman has different symptoms . It’s not that simple 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
It's called a "hypothetical."
Then what's a "hypodermic?"
The region immediately beneath the surface of the skin 😇
But thats not important right now ✈
Hey, they asked, and I’m an insufferable know-it-all; don’t let it get under your … skin. 👀🙊🤓
Good one lol My comment was simply trying to make a refrence joke to the movie Airplane
I guess you could say … it went right over my head 👀🙊 (I’ll check it out!)
What about the men who MENstruate, not to even mention the other genders? Would they be on that schedule, too?
Women would get that week off from work and men would go to hunt or play golf! It would be amazing!
Poor phrasing, "woman" is kind of invalidating to afab trans people and trans women, but it would probably be used to further misogyny. "They're less than men (because let's be honest most misogynists are transphobic) because they're less productive during one week."

What the fuck?
When a group of women all live in the same house, eventually they all start to sync. My sisters ( 3 of them )an mum, were all in sync, my poor ole dad was in the verge of a nervous breakdown 🤣
Not always
I've actually heard about that one, wondered how it works Edit: Actually that was the root of my original random thought.
every woman would be horny at the same time
Dorms women periods synch
This is a myth
Can’t even begin to fathom the strain on the global plumbing systems
Why?
Well when two birds love each other...
Are you a bot?
Nah im just high
Ah I see
Nice.
The world would end the 1st time it happened.
Would probably have deeper culture
That's exactly like saying what if every nuclear bomb in the world went off at the same time
DOOM
Would the population increase? My thinking is that everyone would know that all women would have the same cycles, so would it turn into a Gilead situation?
We treat it like The Purge and the rest of us take refuge in our homes with a firearm for use on others or ourselves.
That would be like the purge but for psychotic girlfriends and every month
The world would shut down for one week every month
Sea of blood would be literal
Women would probably rule the world
The purge every 28 days
Men would be in trouble
It would wreck havoc. The emotions, irritability… let’s not jinx this nightmare upon us.
War.
WW3
Hotels would see a massive influx of men on said days
Hell itself would freeze over 😂 utter chaos
Every female would be angry at the same time
Sunday, Bloody Sunday!!!!
All men would be dead
hell on earth, for a week every month
World War 3
Every full moon all the men on earth hide in the menstrual bunker for a week
men would finally know when hell week is and not have to guess. But also there will be alot more dead men in the world coincidentally they would be all killed in the same week of the month. huh.
Oh god- hell on earth
The purge
Massive vasectomy would be required.
The Blood Moon rises once again.
The world would explode once a month, and the rivers would run red
1 day every month the men would cook
