“She keeps pulling the period card,” he said.

He was taking about his girlfriend.

Everytime things aren’t working out?

Her monthly period becomes the excuse.

I wish I could say this was an uncommon thing, but unfortunately it isn’t. Many of you girls think your monthly cycle is your ticket to get away with things.

When he told me this?

I suggested a simple solution.

Ask her, “How would you like to be horny 24/7?”

As two guys we laughed of course.

But let’s take a moment to dissect this.

First let me say girls, it is not my intention to belittle what you go through. No guy can understand what it’s like to have to deal EVERY SINGLE MONTH with what you do.

But the response I suggested?

It is to bring this into perspective.

As guys we don’t deal with something one week a month.

We deal with our challenge EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Just like we can’t understand what you go through, you also don’t experience what we do. Despite your assumption? Most of us would prefer not to be horny all the time.

And typical of the battle of the sexes?

Neither of us appreciate the other.

We don’t like how emotionally cray cray you get.

You wish we could keep it in our pants!

What I’m really calling for here is a little more compassion on both sides. Just like guys shouldn’t keep coming on to you, they shouldn’t have to put up with your moods either.

Isn’t Nature wonderful?

All of this for reproduction!

This is why I keep telling you.

You have to be smarter than your DNA.

Find a way to shield your guy from the craziness of your monthly cycle. Find a way to focus on emotional connection and keep it in your pants.

The best way that I’ve found for this?

It’s called Romantic Friendships.

While Romantic Friendships let you enjoy real love?

They protect you from each other while you do.

What do think? Are you ever going to solve the battle of the sexes, or are you better to configure your love life so it lets both of you just be who you are instead?
