Are there more men than women that have a phobia of blood? I know men that are, but haven't come across any women. . . . . how would they cope with month to month life, as it were? Or would that helpt to conquer their phobia?

Hopefully that'll take her mind off driving lessons. Can you imagine the amount of questions when she's trying to revise for her theory...

jno

women with a fear of blood are entitled to one (1) free hysterectomy on the NHS, for the reason you mention.

I think the fear of blood is actually more to be associated with the injury rather than the blood itself, So no I don't think a woman's period is really going to help in that respect.

jno, yeah but you can't have your cake and eat it. If you want children you'd have to have them young then have the op, but fi you're younegr you have less money to live off and look after the baby with.

I have a fear of blood. Turns out its just my own blood too as I have found to my surprise that I cope with other peoples on a near daily basis quite well. Even when they vomit it up by what appears to be the gallon.I have fainted when I see it being taken (from me) when I have a big flappy bit of skin hanging off but never not once has my period ever made me fell sick, clots and all. TMI??? thought so.

ummmm

How do you know you'd have less money to live on if you're young? In some places of employment you have all age ranges doing the same job for the same wage. Do you think you get paid more for every year of life?

If you've been to uni then you can get a better job, but fi you had to have your baby as a teen, you might not have that chance.

ummmm

Not always the case Molly. I ran a very successful business in my early 20's....I didn't go to uni.
