I wasn't aware that there is such ignorance throughout the male population in this 21st century.

mikey -yes its taught in Biology to year 6/7 . At least it is in the Comprehensive School I am a governor of.

Having a wife and 3 daughters I know enough - Just stay out the ruddy way !!

Thanks Retrochic...I thought it must be !

Haha young, but do you fuss them a little more at that time? Not talking over the top here, such as, would you like a nice drink .. a hug ?

[ummmm]

My son has just informed me that he received no sex education whatsoever.

He goes to a Catholic school.

[mikey4444]

Ummm...that's not very good, is it ? I thought all Schools had to give Sex Ed, as part of the national curriculum ? Not sure why Catholic Schools should be allowed to let their pupils be left in ignorance.

A little thoughtfulness goes a long way at this time, really does!

[ummmm]

I went to the same school and we were given very very basic sex education.

And of course you do likewise, by asking your spouse each and every day, (not just once a month), "had a horrible day at the office dear, never mind get your feet up, and I will make you a nice Gin & Tonic, but come here and let me give you a hug first"? :0)

i just had a marketing email

Mary had a little lamb.
Her father ran it over in his company car.
Repair Link fixed the car damage quick smart, and at a smart price too.
Mary had roast lamb for Sunday lunch.

Bring a happy ending to your accident damages.

this managed to get me upset, a fictional lamb getting run over and i'm upset

i'm PMT'ing.

learning about the biology is fine but its not enough, boys need to know why women go mental or cry at the drop of a hat over.... fictional roadkill....

[ummmm]

AOG - I do that every single day.

[Elina]

Of course anoth, it's what a relationship is about. I do find though that the majority of men are non sympathetic to women on a period .. & really .. all it takes to make things more bearable is thoughtfulness & to be less judgemental. It's not the 'usual' person you live with .. thought processes change. Be more sympathetic just once a month.

Oh how very sweet, a couple of 50s style ladies, very hard to come by in 2015 Britain.

[ummmm]

50's style...lol

I think my generation are much more tactile than my mothers.

[Retrochic]

Ummmm So your Sons's Catholic school does not teach human biology? Human pro-creation including female menstruation is part of the national curriculum biology course.

[Buenchico]

Do you mean that tampons aren't a hairdressing accessory then?
