30 Hilarious Misconceptions Men Carry And Confidently Tell Others About
An intact hymen means you’re a virgin!!
By the end of this article, it’s going to be hard to believe that men were appointed as leaders in the patriarchy system because they’re supposedly superior to women. Yet, they still believe women can control their own period, breastmilk production, and hair growth.
There are so many things in this world that you might not know. But perhaps, simply assuming that we have control over natural biological processes like periods is not something you should’ve grown up with.
But here we are. Please go back to school or take a few minutes every day to relearn human anatomy and how it works. Especially about women.

“Years ago, when I was in high school, I had a classmate start telling me that his back hurt from being awake so long. I offered him an extra strength Midol bc I had it and it works pretty well for general pain relief, and he refused it… on account that he didn’t want to have a period. He would not be convinced that Midol didn’t cause periods.” – nicococat

“It was my first time having sex with my first bf after my divorce. I was nervous, as no one else had seen me naked since I had become a mom to three children, and this guy was gorgeous. I was athletic, fit, and confident, but still, it had been almost 20 years since I had been naked around someone new. As things are getting hot and heavy, he starts kissing my stomach and heading south, he stops… and I hear… “wow, you are gorgeous down here… your p*ssy is gorgeous! Sorry, I’ve never been with a mom before and I thought it would be all messed up. “ I’ve never laughed so hard in bed, he was so genuinely shocked and pleased. We just got married last month after 6 years of dating.” – ronsinblush

“Debating whether the 6-week abortion limit was a functional ban in abortion.
Him: No because you have 6 weeks to decide I you want an abortion.
Me: That’s not how it works.
Him: I remember my biology lessons.
Me: My menstrual cycle can be 6 weeks. I have been having them for nearly 30 years, trust my experience.
Him: That’s not right.
Me: It is and I spent several years trying to get pregnant so I learned to look for signs of ovulation and symptoms of pregnancy. It is impossible to know if you are pregnant on day one of your pregnancy because you could be a virgin. The first two weeks are shedding the lining of the womb (period) and growing an egg.
Him: *quotes Web MD*
Me: Oh f**k I gotta hand back my biology degree with all the exams I took in reproductive biology because a guy who googled the answer knows more than me.
Him: Oi. You better not be mean to me because I am well educated and have liberal views on abortion so you need to keep me as an ally.” – Murka-Lurka

“I met a guy who thought I had full control of the time it took my hair to grow. Basically, if I wanted really long hair now I could just get long hair within like 3 seconds, and if I wanted my hair to be shorter it would just go short. Possibly the stupidest person I ever met and I have met some stupid people.” – JournalistMobile3605

“A friend’s boyfriend thought that it was biologically impossible for lesbians to get pregnant. Like, once they realize they’re gay, their ovaries just shrivel up and quit, so they can never have kids. His reasoning was that he’d never met a lesbian couple with children (this was a one-horse town with like 2000 residents, he’d never met a lesbian couple, period.)
I think men also tend to assume that period blood is 100% the same as the blood you see when you cut yourself—thin, bright red, etc (which I guess is a fair assumption.) Lots of men have no idea that period blood can contain clots and tissue, or that the color of it can vary throughout the cycle. They assume it’s just a constant, plain red drip like a nosebleed or something.” – ArcadiaPlanitia

“When I was 17, I needed to ask my dad for money to buy period products. He just said: “You needed money, for this reason, the previous month, it’s not like you have your period every month.”
I just stood there in chock and borrowed some money from a friend until my mom got back the next week. It’s not like he and my mom had been married for almost 20 years, and the fact that he was 56 lol” – 18justme

“I (woman) once argued with a guy who kept saying that women aren’t into p**n for the p**n part but for the story and aren’t turned on by sex or naked bodies at all. He definitely thinks that to this day because my argument that “I’m a woman and skip any story part in p**n” was met with, ‘Just because you’re a woman it doesn’t mean you know what women like.'” – Saberleaf

“A “friend” told me women can control their periods. Mind you, he is not a doctor, nor a nurse, he is not studying medicine and is not even a woman. I told him that’s not how it works, all periods are different, but we CAN’T control it. Otherwise, we would have done it for years!

“Men. Sweet, summer children. We have three holes. The urethra is between the clit and the v**ina. It goes a-hole, rectovaginal septum (perenium), vagina (introitus), vestibule, urethra, clit.
We don’t pee from our vaginas. We pee from the urethra. Which – again – is a different hole. We can control whether we pee. We cannot control whether we bleed. Sneezing, coughing, etc, can shoot forth an amount of blood. Our uturine lining is shedding, and it happens whether we like it or not (hint: we don’t).
Just because your brother’s girlfriend had mild cramps and said that women were overreacting doesn’t mean that is true. For some fortunate souls, their cramps are light and barely noticeable. For others, it is truly debilitating. You cannot imagine. There is no good comparison. That said, there are cramp simulation units. Keep in mind when you’re using those that it’s only one aspect of the full picture.
If you find any of this too gross to contemplate, you are not mature enough for sex.” – SJ_Barbarian
