A Male Athlete Got Brutally Roasted for Comparing Period Pain to Skinned Knees

I don’t think I’m telling you anything you don’t already know, but take my word for it: if you’re a male, don’t ever, ever, ever tell women how their periods affect them or how much pain it does or doesn’t cause them. Because you’ll end up looking like a total jackass – which is exactly what happened to 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.

I was 8 when I got my first turf burn on my knee. 20 yrs later, I still bear the scar. In HS I got a spike in my back. I've broken my thumb, gotten burned, and more. Yet NONE of those compared to my cramps from periods, which has made me pass out before. Sorry you're a wimp

Also, periods feel like being stabbed with a knife in the gut, since one of our organs is literally killing itself for a week as we go into a mild form of labor. But sure. Scraped knees are worse.

Mild form of labor is a pretty good description. Real labor is white hot, searing pain as a woman is literally ripped apart from the inside out. The hip bones spread slowly over the course of hours, the vaginal canal stretched to its ripping point. Men couldn’t handle real labor.

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