Menstrual cycle

Of course not. That´s a natural thing not a desease. I really don´t understand,somethings, it seems that we are at th prehistoric age in some places, with all respect to all traditions, that don´t seem logic to me.

You're Indian right. I understand it's very common in your culture to seperate menstrating women from everyone else during her cycle. My wife used to work for an Indian family and told me even in America they do this. I've always felt it was an ignorant custom. To suggest a woman is somehow "unclean" because she's menstrating is ridiculous. It has nothing to do with hygene and everything to do with the belief that man is better and women are property. I've heard that the wife can't even cook the meals or eat with the family in these times. But does the man take over the chores? No, they have momma or the in-laws do it. They need to get out of the dark ages and join the rest of the civilized world if they want to be taken seriously by the rest of the world. Force

No,I don't see any neccessity for doing so...they are just as normal as usual even during the menstrual cycle.

where in the world do you live. menstrual cycles are normal. why cast someone out b/c of it? besides, who would know when you have a period? do men get cast aside when they are cranky?

Even my wife keep away from me during mensural cycle.

I dont see no logic in this and I think that it is just a way for men to control women. So what I say is rebel and show your true womanly strength.

Well lets see...PMS...acronym for Prime Murder Suspect??lol

The logic is because it can be messy and unhygienic. Thats the only reason that I can think of. But I think the modern women bathe every day and are very clean. So I dont see there would be a problem as long as you 'behave' accordingly.

Thats the olden day stories. Because they say that during that time gals r not clean so they r kept aside for few days. Thats it.

Well it isnt logical but that is a fact that during a menstrual cycle a women is more aroused than in normal, so maybe that is the reason they keep her away

No, theres no sense to it. Its just an old tradition.

Your people need to come into the 21st century. Why should you be treated any differently just because you're going through a natural life cycle? It doesn't make you a different person.

Yes, behind this some scientific logic is their,at the time of periods women suffers frm lot of pains to give her rest in olden days where joint families are common this system is practiced

Yes. I know that I would prefer to stay away from my husband during that time. It would actually be easier on me because of the pain of the first few days. It would also be in the best interest of others if I was alone during PMS (the week before my cycle begins) too. ;-)

what do you mean by being kept at the distance?i didn't understand it too well..when i am on my periode i don't make any efforts,because it hurts very much,and i tend to keep a distance myself from my boyfriend because i feel very uncomfortable,but that doesn't mean that i don't speak to him or anyone,that i don't go out..or things like that..the first 2 days are worst,after that it is only a slow discomfort..for example i played tennis yesterday,and i was on my periode,but in the third day...what's wrong with that?:)

i dont think so

I have no clue to be honest. seems strange really.

I feel that is wrong to do. They can't help that they are having to go through this process and making them apart from everyone else is not going to help their already high emotions. Granted every culture is different, but here in the States you most of the time can't even tell when women are on their m.c. unless they say something about it or are parading around hygiene products such as at a store.

no ..its out of logic
