"All that sympathy just for that" , like it isn't just the blood the pain and aches you get if it was just blood I would be fine but the pain and cramps and hormones suck .
Imagine if someone injected a muscle-constricting substance into the muscles of your belly, after 2 minutes they inject a muscle-relaxing substance and they repeat this for 2 days thus causing constant cramps. You could describe the feeling as having the constant feeling of diarrhea but you can't go to the toilet.
L5940 and the tiredness I get tired and out of energy when I'm on and I get cravings for like double the amount of food I'm supposed to eat I put on like 2 stones in 3 days lol .
I know people who have so much pain that they can't go through their periods without heavy painmedication, there's also women who have so much bloodflow that they constantly have to change their pads. I don't get cravings, I survive the pain by any means necessary. But yes, I'm also tired because the pain is so bad that I can't fall asleep. I usually eat way less and only drink water.
L5940 ooh that's sucks I knew someone who had to have period tablets because the cramps they got was really bad and that in school teachers wouldn't let girls change their pads or tampons in class and this one girl leaked on the chair and through her pants it was really annoying when she told me because if it was me I would have lost it with the teacher periods suck altogether and I also find it annoying when guys think it's nothing and it doesn't hurt and that girls are just being over dramatic I really would like to swap genders for the day when I was on and see how they would like it lol .
They can feel it, there are electrodes which can stimulate the muscles of the belly to cause cramps in different severities. You could even cause childbirth-like cramps with those electrodes. But yes, having periods is the worst and we're also one of the few species that has it.
Just because the cells of human babies are WAY too aggressive and we actually need that layer to protect ourselfs against the baby too.
"All that fuss over THAT?" Bruh, it's not the kind of bleeding you get when you have a cut, where it just seeps out like no big deal, and you can just slap a bandaid on and forget about it. The cramping and the nausea, the emotional whiplash, the night sweats, the fatigue and insomnia, the increased appetite or literal vomiting, the diarrhea and/or constipation, the expensive products, the LEAKAGE (and laundry to clean everything up), the CONSTANT need to change a pad tampon or to empty a Diva Cup, the inability to get comfortable....THAT'S what makes it such a hassle.
thank you
Also, why do we have to pay a tax, periods aren’t luxuries, I didn’t choose to have one
@@beth_m I know
These guys are acting like total idiots like imagine having blood come out of you each month 24 /7 for a week or more and having cramps that make you feel that you wanna die sometime I just wanna die for my cramps seriously sometimes I would rather be dead and they think this isn't a fuss uggh I hate men like this I wish there were some decent men who acutally respect women and try and understand what we go thro
This comment
I do not lose a shot glass worth, mate
Yea women do lose varrying amounts of blood so the shotglass-comparison is just a generalization of how much the avarage woman loses. You can lose almost no blood or lose extremely much blood.
L5940 It's funny that, because almost every woman I know including myself has a heavy flow, and that shot glass is a joke of a comparison. I don't know where they get these averages from.
I think that is of just blood not all the other mess and debre that comes out
@@alaskag4401 like L5940 said, it varies between different women. The shot glass was about right for me, maybe with like 10 more drops added (which isn't a lot). Some women can most likely relate to the blood loss being a bit more than half as much as the wine glass, but the full thing is quite a bit!
NEITHER!!!
It's alright, no need to get angry over the guy that said 'all the fuss over that.'
When he passes his first kidneystone, we'll be there to return the favour and comment on it.
Ok

It is nothing but a myth.
@@nicoladollard1845 same here, bud
"Clench and suck it in"

That'd literally be impossible, it's like telling a pregnant woman to stop delivering her baby when it starts.
It was funny tho
@@L5940 ''Ok, this is not working, suck the baby back in and we'll perform a c-section after''
"all that sympathy fort that?!" Doesn't hurt any less, buddy...
I think men who want children should know - image having a daughter and then not knowing how to explain her period to her or help her.
The mother might not be around. There might not be a mother.
Also it makes you empathetic to know.
I’m always interested to know the male experience - i like men who are willing to discuss the female experiences
That would be my situation..... i lost my mother 2 weeks after she gave birth to me...my dad was on drugs at the time (still is) so i was adopted by my grandpa. When i had my period i was not educated about it...so i thought i was dieing....ik you can laugh i am too now but i thought it was serious then...soo eek
Aly.// Sings I’m sorry your mother past away, and your dad is doing drugs.
@@fredlee9362 thanks so much for that. But i do have some good news my dad is doing much much better!.....(he went to place to help him stop the drugs) although he has a new girlfriend [which i dont like very much even though that is irrelevant] she is at least helping him cut down on the smoking part. So yeah anyways thanks so much for caring about me!
Aly.// Sings great! I’m happy to hear your dad is getting the help he needs, so that you can receive the love you deserve. Really hope your relationship with his new girl friend gets better too.
@@fredlee9362 thank you thank you thank you! You are the sweetest 💕
And i hope so too, i mean i dont hate her she just...well the other way around lets say....she hates me...aka finds me annoying.. i want to be friends with her but she just rejects me and throws it right back in my face.. idk thats kinda why i said i didnt like her but i dont want to lose faith. We will see if she comes around in the future.
I'm a little confused why a lot of people are commenting, that men shouldn't know much about periods because it does not affect them. Maybe not every single detail there is to know, but what if they have daughters and their partner is not around? Who is responsible for teaching her about periods? And how can they teach if they don't know anything?
I think they should know, and having that in mind they could offer us this extra amount of patience and understanding for our changing moods, but instead about how to place a tampoo, I wish they knew that's an entire hormone battle each 21-28 days, when a woman (not necessarly but it happens to some of us) cannot control herself, feels like crying all the time or that everything irritates, or got these painful spasms, and maybe that's not all blood but for many women those are such amounts it causes rough sleep, waking up in a pot, figuring out how to manage from bed to bathroom when the flow just don't stop, I'm sure if it was male thing there would be more killing and there would be a law 'murder in period' and it would be considered as extenuating circumstances
It would just be nice if guys were interested to know. This is part of our life.
not only that but like, it's something that affects half the world, it worth knowing at least basic information about it, like why it happens, the fact that our hormones are completely out of control, and stuff like that, this way they might have a bit more understanding to when we have mood swings or cramps
Rachel I’m a girl and I don’t no anything about a males body so should us females know stuff about a males body to?
@@vbee_7113 in my opinion yes, its worth knowing that the very least the basics of how both reproductive systems work as well as having a basic understanding of both the male and female body, like i said, it affects half the world, that and one day if you habe a son you can answer the questions he has about is own body, and its always just good information to know, also, hormones dont give anyone a good reason to be an ass, if someone happens to be irritable or moody due to it, they should always apologize and take responsibility for there behavior, both men and women.
“All the fuss over that?” ...Uh, yeah, that’s what I ask my body every period, too. It’s really inconvenient to have to suffer soreness, bloating, hormones, nausea, breakouts, and much more over a bit of blood loss, ya know?
And dealing with men who think they know women’s bodies and do things like not let girls go to the bathroom.
As soon as I played the video my tummy started hurting GUESS WHO IS NOW ON HER PERIOD 😂😂I swear the BBC is a fricken psychic
When my tummy starts hurting, I get up, I eat a banana, I drink as much water as possible, I eat or take an omega 3 pill, then I take a pain killer pill, I do respiration and I lay on my side because I saw on the internet that it's the best position for it to hurt less.
My pain is so strong that I become dizzy and I can't walk and my body starts to get hot and I feel like vomiting sometimes and if it's really bad I get sweats on my face. It goes like this for 1 to 2 hours. So I found tricks to not let it happens.
Also sports during the month helps.
Jeez that's a really weird coincidence.
To be fair, plenty of women wouldn't be able to answer the first question correctly, either.
ev4r And plenty wouldn’t know how to use the cup as well. Fuck, I don’t even understand tampons
Because in our world, women are taught to hide their suffering from the world. It's a taboo subject to talk about menstruation problems in public. Men will often say: ''Then we should be allowed to talk about jerking off in the public too!'' But I assume that most men don't lose blood for multiple days through their genitals paired with a significant drop of hormone levels. (Unless they have some deadly disease)
L5940 And who "teaches women to hide their shame"? I personally think it's simply none of my business what goes on with other people's bodies
well, we definitely know that it is NOT a pint lol
emogirl1994 Well, by elimination we can increase the odds of guessing correctly, lol, we do have that in our favor.
My question is how did women deal with periods in the 1600s ?
The rich women isolated themselves in a room and had few contacts until the period was mostly over. In the case of poor women, they just had to stick some cloth down there and carry on although it did obviously affect their amount of acitivities.
They also had lots of layers of petticoats (no fabric up in between the legs until the 1800's I think) which acted as protection for their dresses and furniture etc. I imagine though that some working women who did not have the option of being still all day, would have some kind of loin cloth on if they where bleeding heavily and the skirts and stockings wasn't enough.
With rags...hence being "on the rag"
That expression isn't that old though, is it? Genuinely asking! :P
Also, to add to the answers, women were pregnant a lot more back in the days before the widespread use of and access to any working contraceptives (with the exception of some religious and social groups that used family planning or those who were celibate etc.).
There has always been a wide variety of contraceptive methods throughout the ages and some of them where actually quite effective as such, but most were just superstitious nonsense (like "put this plant under your bed" sort of thing). If you were rich, the odds of having access to the stuff that really worked were generally higher.
But even the richest of women used to give birth to a lot more children on average than we do today. Those figures dropped only recently. So pregnancy did in fact use to have quite a big affect on the amount of time a woman spent being on her period. At least for sexually active women.
Poor women used moss...
I lose one of those shotglasses like every 45 min wth
I feel jipped
Join the club love. So frustrating and interferes with work, travel and I'm anaemic several times a year.
You lose not only blood but also "other stuff" from there. A amount of pure blood is actually not that big.
Same when I use a cup (the heavy) size. its the same size of a shot glass and I have to empty it every 1- 2 hours for like 3/4 days 😅
@@mane6962 yeah that's why I'm anemic for 10y.
"All that fuss over that" oh shut up
LMAO RIGHT??
No body liked that
Such a dumbass I swear. 🙄
He's just surprised on how little blood comes out
@@immortality7238 I was surprised but we don’t need sympathy for the blood it’s mostly the period pains x
Now I don’t expect men to know everything about periods, but I would expect them to know at least the basic fact about how bad cramps are and how much periods effect our daily lives.
Seriously, period cramps and heart attacks have the same level of pain and it’s proven.
PS: Luckily for me, the dudes in my class are actually mature over these things, so I don’t have much of a problem. They even help us out sometimes. God bless them
I totally agree, videos on RUclips or TV advertising do not portray the realistic part of being on a period! The mood swings, tiredness, cramps, pain, constantly having to change a pad, restrictions of what to wear, white is forbidden, some embarrassing days, bloating, being moody!!!!! I can go on. MEN HAVE NO IDEA. BECAUSE APPARENTLY it's taboo to talk about it.

3:24 Man: //struggles with the tampon
Woman: *Come on, you used to be an engineer.* 😂
'It's a menstrual cup"
'Okay, explain that in English'
wahahahahhaha
That old lady to her husband: "Oh, come on, you used to be angineer."
I died.
Same
I lose about a shot every day!!
Same 😂
Every 12 hours for me. 😢
"You used to be an engineer"
'yeah i know ive got a sister and everything'
I totally agree with you, my friend and her sister told me about their periods in detail. They used terminology I did not understand until I googled it a few days later, my friend also showed me her "blood" deposit in the toilet and the used"pad". They both insisted that was what is referred to as a "light" period...when there is not too much blood, as they both mentioned the so called "heavy" period and smiled when they talked about the amounts of blood during one of those! The other symptoms that come along with the blood lose were described as well. All I know is that day I found out how fortunate I am, having been born a male...the worst I have to look forward to is passing gas and belching, which are not my favorite activities. I'm just REALLY happy I'm a guy, so very happy...I don't know what I would have done if I was a woman, I doubt I would have been able to deal with any of this...it's just not for me, none of it.
“It’s just not for me, none of it.” As if we could chose 🤣 Pardon, I’m high so this is hilarious
Yeah, it's not for anyone either. I'm sure no one loves the hassle that comes along with it
Lol I don't even know how applicator tampons work... I don't even think we have them here...
Basically instead of pushing the tampon up yourself the applicator does it for you. I don't see the appeal personally I prefer non applicators (cheaper too).
Petition to find and “talk” with the guy who said “all that fuss over that?”
I'll sign.
Why? You making a physical threat? You a misandrist?
@@nakkadu nope, not at all. Since guys have never experienced periods they don’t get to decide wether or not it’s: painful, infuriating, or just plain annoying. You don’t see me walking around saying getting kicked in the nuts isn’t that bad, I don’t say this because I have never experienced it. It annoyed me when the guy said “all that fuss over that?” Because he wouldn’t know, nor will he ever. Also like take a joke man 😂
@@tasty_beans7758 ok so we have nut-kicking and you have periods....let's just assume neither is any fun 😆
@@nakkadu exactly
I'm a heavy bleeder. Too much blood, I hate it. And the cramps, ugh. Guys have no idea how easy they have it. I also have one day during my period time where I have to pee constantly, and one day when I have to fart like every three minutes (and you can't fart in public places)....thank you, Uterine muscles. :-( Kudos to myself, and all the women that have to deal with this, plus go to work, school, or do whatever life throws at them!
I never understood why people think that being taught about periods and other female things by men is weird. I have a friend with a single Dad and she learned a lot of these things from him. There’s honestly nothing wrong with it?
“all that sympathy just for that little amount” trust me, it feels like so much more, usually it is more depending on the person. also the other symptoms
A shot glass? I’d say the middle one was more accurate ffs
« All that fuss over that? »
*threatening ratteling*
*loudest, most aggressive hissing sound*
To be understanding is the greatest gift a human could ever give
That blonde kid knew everything he’s so smart and funny
Is BBC3 buzzfeed now?
Meggolegit ofberk literally thought the same thing 😂
Is it bad to inform people about menstruation?
L5940 I don't think that's what they meant. I think it's more because of the other content BBC3 is producing on RUclips. I realised how similar they were becoming ages ago when I seen BBC3 did videos about "What not to say to a Muslim" or "what not to say to someone with Down's syndrome" - it's good content, it just isn't original and extremely similar to Buzzfeed.
L5940 It's more the context "We're living in the age of equality, but how much do men really know about periods?" Why should the general population of men know about female biology? And why take the narrative, that if a man doesn't know then he's sexist...
surprisingly this video didnt really take the feminist route which is refreshing
Also - She was demonstrating the cup. She said all the blood gathers in there. What she means is that the blood is collected in the cup for a duration of 6-12 hours - *DEPENDING* upon menstrual flow and the size of the menstrual cup. Menstrual cups do have to be emptied consistently over the duration of a menstrual cycle. There are different sized menstrual cups for light to heavy flow. Most period products accommodate light to heavy flow.
“all that fuss over that”
If a period was just blood there would be now problem
"Come on you used to be an engineer" I'm dying 🤣🤣
I really enjoyed this
WE GIVE YOU SYMPATHY OVER THAT??? You wanna fight me bro.
“I” didn’t even know what that little purple thing was, lol.
Kristin Torres Lol they're a good idea, they're good for the environment and all, but they're just too fussy and painful and literally impossible for a lot of us.
"Well come on, you used to be an engineer!"
i lose that much in like one frickin day
Never needed to use a tampon applicator. Just inserted the tampon.
Great, everyone is different.
Charmian O'Brien I dont know how people do that. I need an applicator
Fuggin hate the applicators - it put me off using tampons for Years - literally the first decade of my period. I got it at 11, didn't use tampons until I was 21. The non applicator just works for me. Big whoop, just wash your hands after - you'll live.
Also important to wash your hands before inserting it!
In my country (Sweden) the applicator thing basically doesn't exist... Although I do think I've seen some new brands recently on the shelves which have them. But since I never use tampons anymore (because I have a coil and don't really bleed at all) I haven't bought any for ages and so I'm not too up to date with the Swedish tampon market. X)
1:00

Men will never know what periods are truly likes
And you will never know what getting kicked in the nuts feels like.....which makes your comment above seem stupid.
@@nakkadu your comment seems stupid because you don't know either about having a period. He was saying "all thst fuss over just that blood" so why can't I say when he gets kicked in the nuts, "all that fuss over that" you think we are being dramatic then what about you lot?
@@fayeduncan9842 But you claimed that being kicked in the nuts wouldn't be equivalent to half the pain of a period.....you clearly can't know that so you're just chatting shit.
@Rc 118 123 that's irrelevant
@Rc 118 123 The fact that there are always things that men can't understand about women and vice versa....it's true that men don't know how bad it is to have periods....but also women don't know what it's like to me a man so it works both ways
I have heavy flows for three days and that it but I have use the largest pads because it would go on the sides front like the blood goes all over my underwear it’s so hard
That blood thing isn’t wrong. But we shed waaaaaaaaay more than just blood. That’s why there is a fuss.
I don't know why it feels like SO MUCH but we don't lose that much
In Germany tampons with applicator are not used normally. It is more common in US and GB
OB are better for the environment! No applicators. 😊
3:16 Awwh his laugh is so cute
for some reason when she showed that guy the shotglass, i pictured the song "Shots shots shots shots shots everybbody!" LMAO
I literally lose 90 ml each month, would love to see the men asking of that was all try it
The guy that said 'all the fuss for that' , I'd like him to try it for 1day and see how he feels because mate, it ain't that easy
Gotta make sure he experiences the worst day (usually the 2nd day for a lot of people) to get the full impact of why it's such a hassle.
The thing is though, it's not our problem. It's yours.
@@sleeperboi8701 Fr females love making their problems everyone else's
I saw myself walking into McDonald's in the back 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm a little annoyed that it isn't further explained that it's "average" and everyone is different. Some have heavier period flows than others. Menstruation isn't the same for everyone. That includes symptoms, as well.
I do have a question. How do you put a pad in? I wanna know because I'm a girl.
you put it on the inside of a pair of panties
Some pads have wings ( Winged pads are more preferable )
You wrap the two wings around your panties. ( They're sticky, wo will be easy to stick on )
The main part of the pad is where your vagina will sit and bleed.
Change the pad every two days on a normal day.
If you go out swimming, wear a tampon.
If you go out to dinner and wear a dress, wear shorts underneath.
I don't about tampons and cups but now I know how to use it even 😃
Good video
She forgot about the clumps of flesh coming out of you
That one shot can be absorbed by 2 pads so why do we overflow so many pads??? Can anybody answer me
Because it's more than just blood. It's also uterus lining and vaginal discharge. Which accounts for a lot more than just a shot glass full, especially if you're someone who has a heavier flow. The shot glass is just used as an "average" of how much blood is lost. But everyone is different of course, so some people may lose less some more.
Good vid 😂
Omg they never do thing like this on Chelmsford night street!!!
Should've asked them if they know what TSS is
When the lining of the uterus breaks down and wears away I learnt it in science this year 7
The important thing here is that after that day people walk out knowing more than they did before. It’s a win
It’s the new Apple iTampon! It is smart and texts you when you need to change it. It slices! It dices! It even circumcises!
'Come on you used to be an engineer.' Lol
I honestly don’t know how girls can deal with this, it already seems hard for me to take it out every 4 to 6 hours.
“Cmon you used to be an engineer “ LMAOOO
“All that fuss over that!?” 😑😠😤
The man struggling to work a tampon
Wife: C'mon u used to be an engineer!
🤣😆🤣
It actually feels like a beer’s mug amount. No way it’s 2-3oz.
2 cups of green tea or diluted tablespoon of molasses a day. I haven't had PMS in a couple years. The bloating and cramps are actually not healthy. Load up on antioxidants and minerals during that cycle.
Mine is about 3 or 4 shot glasses lmao
2:07 Mind voice of the guys. "That looks like one of body parts which you are never supposed to know about"
That woman literally saying 'COME ON YOU USED TO BE AN ENGENIEERV SIBAHSHSHS IM DEAD HAHAHHAHA
I surely bleed more than that shot glass. That wine glass quantity was what I felt would be ideal. Oh my my , I was wrong. 🤣
As s science sub.... I can't be surprised!!!
That was never the average for me. Bring on the mug.
Yeah that just one I have that everyday 6 days
This video gave me cramps wth
I'm not even on my period right now
shoutout to that news reporter who dared to stand in public asking about periods.
The kids walking by be like 👀
Idk. I was looking at that big jug of blood thinking that looks about right. I legit laughed at that small shot of blood. What a joke. 😁And that one guy who said m what’s the fuss? Boy u don’t know the half of it. 😤😂
1:02 Oh come on, are you serious i mean that is still a lot of blood. And it isn't just the blood its terribly painful what seems like endless cramps, headaches, excrutiating back pains, constipation and diarrhea, bloating, feeling nauseos, always feeling exhausted etc. I could literally go on for days.
I actually lose more than a shot glass. I know because I use a diva cup. But the amount is not really my issue. I throw up, cramp (specifically in my butthole), feel gross, etc. And I won’t even talk about how I also experience symptoms when ovulating.
I recently started my period and I bleed way more than a shotglass.
If we only could control the pms and the hormones. It's not just pain and blood. Oh dear I WISH it was only pain and blood. PMS is the worst. I hate myself in that time of the month. I am on the pill, the only pill that controls my period good, but the side affects are the worst. Please, just understand...
Wait so your telling me this whole time I didn’t know that every 28 days my body trynna get pregnant 🤷♀️🤦♀️
It creates a thickened uterine wall full of nutrients for that purpose. In order to keep the environment fresh and healthy it will shed it and rebuild it. (Kind of like eating an older sandwich vs. a new sandwich). A healthy uterus lining makes it easier for zygotes (egg/sperm fusion) to attach and grow. Another thing that you may not know is that the egg will release exactly 14 days before the start of your period! Upon ovulation, you have 24 hours for the egg to be out to get pregnant. 4 days before this is the maximum amount of time sperm can live inside the uterus, but for some reason we act like women can get pregnant at any point in their cycles. It’s really only ovulation and those few days, not all the time.
Wanted to see this experiment done in India 😅
Bruh, tampons deadass are SOOOOO uncomfortable and i always have that fear of... We know what...THE SHOOOCK
it's not a shot glass, it's more like 3 smaller regular glasses. everyone learned that in school like this
I think most of us women think we bleed the biggest glass full and tbh I am sure I would lose more than a shot glass coz mine often goes 10 day's but even though it might not be much blood periods are fucking painful and gross
RIP... I can't believe you'd survive that hell for 10 days.. Sometimes I hate extremely painful cramps ( those that you still feel through painmedication ) but the pain itself is just for 2 days for me.
Carrie Bizz I typically go for 8 to 10 days too....sometimes 11.
In addition to blood, there are other fluids contained in the lining of the uterus that would support and nourish an egg. All the fluid adds to the flow which in total ends up being a lot more liquid than just actual blood. I would say the middle amount is more realistic. Some women pass out because of the heavy flow. Some women require wearing a tampon and a pad at the same time. It can be traumatizing for young girls, and age 8 is now a typical age for menstration to begin, and the age is continuing to decrease for unknown reasons.
ALL THAT FUSS FOR THAT!!!!!!!! that's it I'm gonna make him bleed an attire 5 pints worth.
Plus I disagree with that "small" amount anyway, I'm convinced I bleed the pint amount.
1:05 😂😂 so true.
Dad always ....said never trust anything that bleeds for five days but doesn’t die 😬
At least these men didn't feel shy talking about periods in Indian video when people were asked about periods they were feeling shy some of them were saying it's not a question of asking from a men ... I am not saying that everyone was like these some of them were not like this ...but they were just few I am Indian don't think I hate India...I love my India. But that was just the reality
When the bbc ask the men of Chelmsford, Essex about periods....
When he is describing the amount of blood woman shed during the menstrual cycle, he means BLOOD only, not including the still intact uterus lining.
"Around every 28 days an egg is released and at the same time a lining forms in the womb" This is not true for the egg being released but women get a period roughly every 28 days, and the egg is released around the 14th day after the first day of the last period. OR 14 days before the beginning of the next period.
"All that sympathy for that." Well, they do seem to have a better idea of why and how it happens than some men do over here in the states. Some men here think it is voluntary and that women use these products so they can willfully soil themselves. But the real issue is not the blood itself. Some symptoms such as pain and fatigue can be debilitating. And these vary from woman to woman. Some barely notice they have a period, some can't leave their beds.
