Welcome, lovers of spilled tea. It is absolutely jarring just how many men out there have zero understanding about how women's bodies work. Some of this can be blamed on the education system which does very little by way of explaining natural human processes. However, now with internet access men can easily Google any queries they may have about women's biology and even watch free YouTube videos that explain everything — if that's too much, there's even short-form TikToks and Instagram reels! Despite this, many men are still totally oblivious to the needs of half the population.

Our story today involves this type of clueless man. When our protagonist graciously allows her boyfriend's immature friend to stay in her apartment, he eventually makes his way into her private bathroom despite having access to a guest bathroom. When he comes across her menstruation supplies, he makes a huge deal out of having to be in the presence of such 'disgusting' objects and is promptly kicked out. Get all the details down below.

    My reason (which my bf knows and supports) is that I have chronic pain and migraines and value the house as a place of peace. However, I don't mind having two or three parties a month and I don't mind a friend spending the night in the guest room either. My chronic pain is due to the fact that I have an illness, which makes me bleed a lot during my period. As I'm also allergic to bleach, I can't use

    My boyfriend (26) and I (20) live in a house that I inherited. My siblings had decided that I should get the house as they had already a certain income and wealthy lifestyle with their partners. The fact that we now lived in this gifted" house made some of my bf's friends a bit „mad". Specifically, one friend (S) kept making comments in my bf's absence about how r de he thought it was of me that I didn't want his friends to party or stay over at our house more often.

    commercially available disposable pads or tampons. I therefore use self-made cloth pads. After use, I soak them in a bucket of cold water until I put them in the washing machine in the evening. This bucket is in our bathroom next to the toilet.

    (S) came to us on Saturday because his girlfriend kicked him out. I said that he could stay in the guest room until he found a new flat. The guest room also has a small bathroom with a shower.

    (S) wanted to take a bath today when my bf and I were at work. He didn't mention this beforehand. When he came into our bathroom, he saw the bucket with two bloody sanitary towels (the cold water, which I always put a dash of gall soap in, means they don't smell, by the way). He

    Snackinpenguin 1d is wrong with this "friend". Just because you are offering a roof over his head, doesn't mean he gets to wander through the whole house including into YOUR bathroom. He had other options. He needed to ask you first to use your bathroom. He didn't. He's the ride one. NTA. Reply 1.5k

    sweetlikecinamonroll OP. 1d I totally agree. I mean if he had just asked if he could have a bath then i would have put the bucket away in 3 minutes before i went to work. It was rode and im lucky my man supported me here 638

    Opposite Jeweler_9531d Dear, that is your very private space, he should just take a shower and be grateful. All those that agree with him can be blocked and kept out of your house. Enjoy your house, your calm and your quiet; that's not negotiable. Don't let anyone mess with it, you are your most important person.

    I used to have very strong periods because I am on blood thinners. Thank goodness I was not allergic to bleach. Keep looking for alternatives, there are new products everyday that could make your life easier. Good luck and keep taking good care of yourself. ... 341

    cutelikeunicorns • 1d You're not in the wrong here. You have every right to maintain boundaries in your own home, especially when it comes to your health and comfort. It was disrespectful of S to judge your personal practices and make you feel uncomfortable, especially after you took him in when his GF kicked him out. This is definitely not a way to say thank you and im glad your boyfriend supports your decision. Reply 31 ♡
