I mean... it IS comparable though. In that these things respectively signal that the body has reached a certain stage of development. Sure a period is unpleasant and a wet dream is pleasurable, but it's not about that. The first menstruation / ejaculation means that biologically speaking, you've reached reproductive age. (obviously doesn't mean you SHOULD be reproducing at that age, but that the body is technically capable.)

I do think boys should be being taught about boners and ejaculation so they're not surprised or afraid when it happens to them, but I also agree that the two are not on the same level and absolutely everyone, regardless of gender, should have a complete understanding of periods. Almost half of the population experience periods and it's important that all people of all genders understand them.

@@Arvak absolutely! I think everyone in general should learn everything about human biology, how puberty works, what parts people can have and how they work! Imo they should teach this stuff pretty soon to young people so they dont get a huge shock when their or their friends body does something, and then as young teens be also teached futher about it, such as trans expiriences, intersex, how chromozones arent always the same as whats expected of your sex, how libido and general sexual interactions may work ect!

I was 10 when I got my first period. Since then they have been horribly painful, heavy, and last for several days. When I was 22, I was living with my father and stepmother. I had a conversation with my stepmom about how my periods seemed to be worse, with the pain and duration of it lasting longer. I was in so much pain while discussing it. My father was in the kitchen with us when I was talking about it and asked me to stop talking about it because ‘it’s not appropriate to discuss my womanhood in front of my father’ and if it hurt so bad, I needed to just take some ibuprofen and try to tough it up. After I finally saw a doctor for my problem, I finally found out that because of my prolonged exposure to a medication I was taking for one of the autoimmune diseases I have, it had finally caught up to me in messing with my hormones and had practically made me infertile. My father was upset at the fact that the family bloodline will end with me, and told me if I had previously found a better way to manage my already out of control body, that I would not have this problem.

Then, and here was the best part: The teachers took all of the questions we had asked them, and integrated the most meaningful questions into our health education lessons.

I still have very little knowledge about what exactly im feeling for and just hope i catch it if something is there.

[@TheMagicalMew]

Such models are already a thing, the gyn office i used to go to had one, the lumps usually feel sharp like tiny stones in those. When you find suspicious lumps during self examination remember that glands will react to the hormonal cycle. Try to remember where the lump was and how big it was, then reexamine it after your period. It should get smaller if it was just a part of the gland.

It seems to me that whomever made the rule that the hair has to be in a ponytail the whole day without re-doing it has never had long hair. I may be a man, but I've had long hair for most of my life, in a ponytail, and sometimes it just has to be re-done. It depends mostly on physical activities and the condition of my hair and the hair tie, but sometimes strands of hair get loose or the tie slips and I just have to re-do the hair tie. Sure it's not daily, but also not something you can totally prevent. Also, who thinks that guys getting inappropriately excited about a girl's innocent actions should be the girl's problem?

The amount of stigma and misconceptions around periods honestly annoys me. It is a natural part of life and not discussing it doesn’t make it any less real. I’m very open when it comes to talking about periods and reproductive health with my friends both male and female (when it is appropriate) and the conversation always brings something new and educational. I’ve learned a lot of coping mechanisms for cramps from other girls I’ve spoken with and taught plenty of my guy friends about how tampons work and how to get blood out of clothes. I got my first period when I was 9 and I thought I was dying because no one had told me about it before, I would have had much less anxiety around it if people had had those conversations with me from a young age. Discussing periods with young men, women, ect is beneficial to everyone, it lets young girls know what they’re in for, it brings understanding for future relationships with women or having daughters later in life or even just understanding sisters. Things would be much better if everyone just sucked it up and had those much needed conversations.

It's not the muscle/fat ratio that matters, it's just how exhausted the body is. Those things often correlate, but it's not the cause.

Not getting periods for that reason is certainly unhealthy, but it's not catastrophic by itself, the problem is more that a permanently exhausted athlete is more likely to get injured.

yeahh thats the sorta shit that happens in famine situations. your body diverts resources from non essential functions like reproduction into literally keeping you alive. and there have been studies showing that even after the famine situation is over, and the menses restart, this leaves physiological consequences that go beyond lifelong, even affecting epigenomic regulation in future children; the genes which regulate metabolism and energy storage regulation are suppressed, producing children with a predisposition to weight gain. youtube hates links or I would find the study in question, but it was based on the children of famine survivors in the netherlands, who experienced deprivation due to blockades during WW2.

@@trishapellis The thing is, if women have Secondary Amenorrhea(Absent Periods), its literally a health condition that shouldn't be ignored as it might be something that needs to be addressed to like stress, eating habits, PCOS(Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), hyperthyroidism/hypothyroidism(the really concerning one), and Pregnancy/breastfeeding. With chest hair, its not that much of a health concern as much as having amenorrhea(or absence if menstruation) as long as these conditions do not apply to: 1. Girls that do not have a rare condition that makes them enter a puberty cycle before the ages of 8 to 10. 2. A teenager during puberty. 3. A woman in menopause. 4. Pregnancy. 5. Breastfeeding. So not, that is not as comparable as chest hair, medically speaking. As long as you have Amenorrhea without those specific conditions, then they should most likely go to a doctor. Meanwhile chest hair is dependent on your hormones that determine it. There are also more concerning abnormal Period cycles like Menorrhagia and Polymenorrhea(Prolonged, Heavy Bleeding), Amenorrhea, Dysmenorrhea(excess pain during period), Hypomenorrhea(Extra Light Periods). This due to the likely symptoms that causes them to happen, not the condition itself. In comparison to chest hair(in which women can also get it), Amenorrhea, Dysmenorrhea, Hypomenorrhea, and Menorrhagia is something you have to keep tabs on even when you're healthy. Disclaimer; I am not a Gynecologist nor do I work on the medical field(except for my interest in Paramedics, but its actually extremely expensive). So take it with a grain of salt. tldr; Although the health concerns surrounding Amenorrhea is in fact there, its not as comparable as chest hair due to one factor: Health and living conditions that affect absent periods. From benign stuff such as, excessive exercise, Stress, Prefnat(yes I am going to make the Pregante joke), and breastfeeding to slightly or really concerning ones such as Thyroid disorders, Eating disorders, and PCOS. The only completely concerning cause for Amenorrhea are Thyroid disorders(and some I do not know, since that is not my field so take it in a grain of salt), as it has more pressing issues that come along with it. Amenorrhea is not a disease but it can be a symptom of another condition. Although what I am talking about is mainly things related to secondary Amenorrhea. There also a lot more things that even I couldn't type about Primary and Secondary Amenorrhea.

[@ousamadearudesuwa]

@@trishapellis also, no. Secondary Amenorrhea is more inclined to being caused by other health conditions, mostly benign, but some being really concerning. Unlike Chest hair that is mostly caused by hormonal changes in the body, and is rarely linked to any other health disorders, while Secondary Amenorrhea can be symptoms of different health issues(especially if its a Thyroid disorder).

There is a bit of a point there, but it also happens through the normal cycle - at peak fertility women tend to be more attracted to the handsome stranger and otherwise to the good, solid provider, not to the guy who’ll be gone before dawn to enjoy some other girl some villages over … Hormonal birth control basically tells the body that it is pregnant (hence the ovaries stay dormant, hence there’s nothing sperm can make a clump of cells with that might be a baby down the line) and then a spontaneous abort at the end of the pill cycle - something that happens all the time in nature and is unnoticed in almost all cases). That removes the fertility - by design! - and hence also the fertility peak. As women are as varied as humans come (surprise!) the individual reactions to hormonal birth control vary WIDELY.

@@comradewindowsill4253 I blame hentai for that.

[@aavakainen]

Answer: Kind of both, but puberty only indirectly. Puberty enables you to get pregnant, and the mammary glands grow. Pregnancy hormones, further mammary gland growth etc. prepare you for brestfeeding. Women often start to produce small amounts of milk before giving birth. The hormonal changes after giving birth (especially birth of placenta) and the stimulation by a suckling baby enable milk production on a larger scale. So the most direct causes for milk production are giving birth and/or having a baby suckle at your breast. New mothers will stsrt to produce milk even if they don't breastfeed (there are medicine to stop this), and it is possible to start milk production solely through stimulation, without having been pregnant (used by e.g. non-birthing mothers in lesbian couples). Also, some medications can cause milk production, even in cis men.

Mom ADMITTED she just didn’t want to give us that talk, despite the medical history. I plan to have age appropriate anatomy talks with my kids when I have them once they’re old enough to understand. Especially is I have a daughter.

A friend of mine actually got her period when she was 8. In school. She didnt know what it was and litterally panicked

I was talking to this super conservative woman. She said that sex ed "Should only be between a man and woman on their wedding night.". When I informed her that sex ed also teaches about puberty, and teaches females about periods. She responded with "Yes! That should be between her and her husband on their wedding night!". 😱🤢🤮 Who still marries off their daughters as children?! And how is her "husband" going to teacher her about periods?! No. Just no. 🤮 I also must add that this wasn't an older women where child "marriage" was "normal" in their day. This woman was in her 30's.

Fun story. I used to be a labor and delivery nurse. Epidurals are common in my area and when an epidural is in place you can't feel your bladder filling. During labor, a large bladder can obstruct delivery so we use a catheter to keep the bladder empty. Depending on where you are this is either one that you put in and leave in or one that you use every X amount of hours and remove after draining. With the first type we would have women - adults - some older adults - say "if you leave that in there how will the baby get out? That tube is going to block my v****a and prevent the baby from coming out". This wasn't a once or twice thing over the years, this was almost daily. I can't count the number of times I've gone to the whiteboard and drawn a vulva showing that women have 3 holes and the catheter goes in the top hole and the baby comes out of the middle hole. Grown-ass cis-female adults think they pee out of their vaginas. America needs to do better with basic anatomy in schools coz the parents sure as sh!t aren't doing their part.

[@SartorialDragon]

Oh no. (but also, how can the parents "do their part" if even they don't know???)

[@advorak8529]

You do not need to know anything for total abstention only and for the rest, do you not have your instincts that will tell you what is right? It’s like comparing prices at the supermarket when each product is listed in a different currency and you have not ever learned the glyphs representing the price for most of them: don’t buy unless you are sure and then your instincts will tell you.

[@chancewill6910]

My school did a terrible job and I'm assuming most kids were like "are we done yet? Ok so now I know my body is going to change is some mysterious ways. Got it." That was literally it. 'Your bodies are going to change soon. How? Well I don't know, I'm a math teacher.' We were told that all we needed to know was hairy armpits and smelly feet and it was even split by gender which they didn't do anything with. Luckily my parent taught me I needed to know but not everyone has that and I would have thought the only things were armpits and feet NOT TO MENTION the school literally sent out a thing saying they were teaching us this so my parent wasn't going to know I wasn't learning anything

@@advorak8529 the instincts for sexuality only lead to humans having sex, not them knowing anything about it. It took humans a while to even figure out that penetrative sex and babies are correlating. We need more than instincts, we need to know how things work, that is actually a human “instinct“, which is why we began doing science. We want to know everything. And we should.

@@chancewill6910 yeah, same here.... all i got from it was “ok so there will be hair and blood AND awkwardness. Thanks, i guess. i hope we never have this topic at school EVER again. They even split us into girls and boys to make space for our questions. My group did not have a single question, we all sat there hoping it'd be over soon. Should it be over? No. It should be BETTER. Less awkward. More informative. Also? Split sexuality and anatomy / body functions. It's important to know how vulvas and penises work (ideally even to know that there are also inter people who don't have a distinct penis or vulva). Stuff like “you pee from a THIRD hole and this is the urethra, and it's important to avoid bacteria getting in there so you don't get UTIs, which is more likely for those with a vulva cause the urethra is a shorter tube“ .... this is not at all about sexuality or gender, this is simply anatomy. We teach how bones and muscles work, don't leave out genitals, they are simply body parts. AND: teach boys and girls and inter kids all about ALL the genitals. If you assume the boys will be cis and straight, they WILL date someone with a vulva and vagina and THEY BETTER KNOW HOW THAT BODY WORKS. Teach them about periods and urethras and everything else. This is not knowledge that should be limited to be taught to girls. and vice versa. There is so much simply about bodies that isn't even about sexuality. Sexuality is a whole other topic which is important, but not the same as teaching anatomy!

I've lost count of the number of times during this video where my reaction to something has either been "That's not how this works!" or "My existence alone is enough to disprove this theory". It... it's just painful.

I swear there's no such thing as an uncontroversial opinion on the internet anymore. You could post "I like kittens 😺" and get ratioed with comments like: "That's really offensive to dog lovers!" "You're just virtue signaling how much you care about animals!" "Kittens are a communist conspiracy to turn our children into furries!"
