5. A few things women might not want you to know
I asked a few women about some things they’d want men to know about their bodies, and what it’s like being a woman in general. They were very forthcoming about that, almost legendarily so. Here are a couple of quotes from my notes.
CM: “I wish men knew how awkward it feels to sneak a fart out in public only to have it hide in your vagina and know that the second you stand up it will do whatever it wants. You have no control over it now, its just hiding. And you’re just keeping your sh*t together while you’re looking them right in the eye, flirting, and praying that they leave before you have to get up.”
SB: “Men knew their girl’s horniness when on the period and just brave the mess. Worth it.”
LN: “The painful nipples before getting your period, rise in acne, the unintentional mood swings.”
ML: “That, much like cars, we need to be warmed up and lubed up to go anywhere.”
ND: “I wish men knew that shaving basically our entire bodies is annoying and frankly, a lot of work, so when we don’t do it sometimes, leave us the hell alone about it. We aren’t hairless naturally, and unless you’re shaving your whole body too, shaddap.”
