PMS is one of those things that I've begun to associate with slickchickflicks and sex and the city scenarios, where the martini-drinking-high-heel-goddess just can't get herself to concentrate on the man (who beats her gorgeousness by many hundred points) she is with at a swanky restaurant. It's become a pretty syndrome. It's an excuse we make, especially around men. It's perfect. It's less shocking than telling them you have your period, if you ever have used that excuse for anything. And trust me, as much as they might claim to completely open to these terribly womanly details, a small boy in them is really just startled, because it is he who imagines and pictures etc.
PMS, being an abbreviation, and less specific when it comes to anatomy, is already twice removed from the gore. So it is abused, and how! PMSing is also a community on one of these social networking websites, giving it the status of a new cool.
So women are saying, PMSin is d worst thing evaaaaaa!!! U jus wanna pull sumonez hair out!!!!!!
and men saying- 'Me cant take m gurlfrenz pmsin mannnnnnn its so pissin offfffff shes lik alwayz iritateddddd.
And, god save us, talking about it, might even the be the new breed of feminism, for many women.
Pre-menstrual syndrome sucks. It's awful in reality. Don't be fooled by the purple you see. It's not pretty. Worse, you're giving everyone around you a bad time and they don't understand why.You can't tell them. The truth is often an excuse with PMSing. You're aware of PMSing and that is only half a degree better than not being aware.
You choose to write instead and it reeks with the quality that one can only be qualified (and as crudely) as PMSness.
You never really did think it would come to this.

I went from an all boys school to study in a college where there were 26 girls and 4 boys in one class. Someone up there obviously has a wicked sense of humour.
I hope I learned something. I think I did.
PMS'ing teaches you a lot. Any day.
At times, for certain people, even bleeding is something to look forward to.
bun, butter, jam.

I suppose living in denial helps over here. :)
PMS pretty? I don't think so. Father A refers to the pre-phase as pmsing and the during phase as 'messing'
Hehe.
It's not pretty. It's just made out to be.
