Twitter Mansplainer Proves Men Know Nothing about Periods

As if it wasn’t tough enough out there for the ladies, did you know about the “Period Tax?” It’s not an actual tax (yet, anyway), but rather, a reference to how much the cost of tampons and pads takes out of a woman’s earnings. It’s literally an unavoidable bodily function that half the population has no choice but to pay for!

In news that will surprise no one, a man took to the internet to give his opinion on the price of tampons and pads and why women should “stop complaining.”

This man did some hilariously wrong math to determine that women only spend about £20 per year for tampons.

Anyone with a period immediately smelled the bullsh*t.

First of all, SEVEN tampons per cycle?! Only in a dream world, pal.

Second of all, he flubbed the NUMBER OF MONTHS IN A YEAR.

He almost certainly mixed up the period thing with the pregnancy thing.

Anyway, third of all, he also got the average volume of blood per period wrong.

It’s actually impressive to be this wrong!

Seriously I can’t with this guy.

Even well-meaning men are oblivious about periods and tampons.

The only solution is to teach ’em a lesson.

That will shut this guy up forever.

A man, Joaquin Garcia, skipped work…

A man, Joaquin Garcia, skipped work for six years and nobody noticed until he won an award for twenty years of loyal service. During the six years he quietly collected a $41,500 annual salary from his local government without showing up for work.

A family in China adopted what…

A family in China adopted what they thought was a dog and raised it for 2 years, only to find out it was an Asiatic black bear. They reportedly couldn’t figure out why the dog kept growing. It turns out that sort of mix-up happens fairly often.

Your life really does flash…

Your life really does flash before your eyes when you die. A study interviewing participants with “near death” experiences found that they re-witnessed very emotional experiences again, and lost all sense of time. One subject said “It was like being there for centuries.”

The English word weird originally meant ‘having the power to control fate’, which is why Shakespeare named his witches in Macbeth The Weird Sisters. Later depictions of them dressed in odd and strange ways led to the current definition of the word.

Poor Person Perfectly Explains to Rich Friend Why Poverty is So Hard to Escape

“Invisible Poverty” is a term that many people don’t even know exists, but it actually describes a very real problem faced by a surprisingly large number of Americans. Unfortunately, it falls through the cracks of our awareness and understanding because it’s so tricky to explain to those who haven’t experienced it firsthand.

A Tumblr user wrote an important post about their conversation with a wealthy friend concerning how hard it is to escape poverty and why it goes so unnoticed by so many.

The post is lengthy, but read the whole thing and pay attention, because the words are powerful.

People were moved by the Tumblr post and weighed in with their own thoughts on the subject.

However “Invisible Poverty” is defined, there’s no doubt that many, many Americans have struggled and continue to struggle with it day in and day out.

Male Athlete Gets Roasted to a Crisp for Comparing Skinned Knees to Period Pain

It’s unbelievable to me that we still need to say this in 2019: Guys, DON’T ever try to tell a woman that her period pains aren’t that serious. Honestly, it takes a real idiot to belittle someone’s pain. I’ve known dudes who could get stabbed in the chest without blinking an eye and yet quivered at the sight of a flu shot. You never know how something affects someone, and their pain is not made any less real just because it doesn’t hurt you the same way.

And yet, there’s always some self-appointed jackass willing to offer his hot take anyway, like this guy.

This man not only claimed that women tend to overreact to their menstrual pain, but he also compared that discomfort to skinned knees, which all of us have experienced at one time or another in our lives. Take a look at his post.

Dude…you’re an idiot. And you know you just opened the floodgates to get your ass handed to you.

Ladies, you may proceed.

What was this guy thinking? Here’s some more feedback for him.

Do you think this guy will ever open his mouth like this again? My money is on “NO.”
