Is it normal people think women on their period are emotional?

It really irks me when people, mostly guys, tell women their on there period because they have an outburst of anger.

Not all women are rabid and will lash out at you the moment you speak because their on there period. I'm a woman, and my mood nor hunger does not change when I get my period. Honestly, I forgot about it most of the time.

I understand that yes some women may have mood swings during a period, however we aren't going to hold a knife at your throat because you didn't buy chocolate or whatever.

I've never met a female that gets overly emotional on their period, so I have no idea why males enjoy joking about it.

    It's usually done by men who have limited social skills and intelligence.

    "It really irks me"

    OP sounds angry. She is probably on her period in all honesty

    Of cousre it's annoying. Saying this implies that a woman is not in control of herself, but is reduced by the speaker to an animal. It also implies the erroneous belief that women are inherently inferior to men in respect to controlling their emotions.
    To me there is nothing more annoying to than idiocy and ignorance proudly brandished.

    Shit, sometimes even *I* say "damn, that bitch must be on her period" when a woman trips shit and acts way too emotional for a situation. When it's a dude, it's typically "the fuck crawled up his ass" or something like that.

    Just different ways to say that someone needs to calm the hell down. I know full and well that every woman who is emotional is not necessarily on her period. Anyone who genuinely believes that an emotional reaction from a woman is an automatic effect of her menstrual cycle does not have much experience with/respect for women and shouldn't be associated with.

      I do hope you keep these thoughts to yourself. Would be very disrespectful to say such things.

      I, in the official capacity as a "dude", have never had anything crawl up my ass and am deeply hurt and offended that you would possibly suggest otherwise. I have on numerous occasions had things drop, drip, or launch at varying velocities and viscosities from my back passage but never crawl up it.

      Kindly cease and desist these false accusations or I will be forced to pursue legal recourse.
      Thank you & good day.

        Wow dude, "velocities and viscosities"; how eloquent. Thank you for citing the similarities between ass drip and cunt drip.

    It's intended to either insult or joke with you. Seems like they got the reaction they wanted out of you.

      I've never had a period joke directed at me, just often observed it and got confused since I've never seen it outside of a funny facebook picture with a period joke or a TV sitcom

    Men get targeted because they use women's vaginas. Menstrual discomfort reminds women of the cocks that have squirted sperm into them all month. Just ask charli.m.
