    My first date question is always about the elevator doors opening in The Shining.

    Mate searching? You old romantic you. Not sure what ick factor you're referring to but I am intrigued.

    If this was a real question:

    There is plenty of research showing that women attract more men when they are ovulating.
    Even if they don't know it themselves, some part of the animal brain in men detects a fertile female and responds. Probably smell, even if completely subliminal.

    So there may be a corresponding "nothing doing here" signal emanating from women during their menses; "No potential for breeding right now, look elsewhere!"

    Nothing "ick" about it in my opinion, (given some basic hygiene) just simple mammalian biology.

    Actually the question is regarding women's whimsy during this time are women more fickle against the unsexy partner during the communist days

    Ooh look at me, getting shít done and whatnot.

    Some of us leave it till the last minute.

    In fact i'm 44 and I haven't ovulated yet....but then I am a bloke so that probably has something to do with it, who knows how this shít works!

    WTF does communism have to do with menstruation?

    Is the question do Fella's get turned off when there is blood on the floor?
    Or is it?
    Are women randier when on the blob?

    I'm confused to say the least!

    In one's humble experience the "form" while Aunt Flo is visiting can range from slight moodiness and silently glaring at Coronation Street, to the full Alien Big-Bitch, occasionally featuring uncontrollable bawling for no apparent reason - "You're horrible! Why are you horrible? Why am I horrible?!? UUUUHHAAAAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!!" :pac:

    A woman is most likely to cheat on her husband/boyfriend while she is ovulating. It's during those few days when she desires masculine men.

    the premise of the OP is that the corollary you mention is untrue

    The Communist Invasion, surfing the crimson wave, waking up on the Japanese Flag, canoeing over Satans Waterfall, entertaining one's Aunt, Shark Week, Dolmio Days, Munster on the Pitch....all the same thing.

    Munster are playing at home it seems.

    Are you sure you're a sassy Girl? Ovulation is before menstruation - the communist invasion - by about two weeks. It's not a concurrent thing.

    In lay mans terms - women are more likely to cheat during the crimson tide cos they are disgusted by their ugly partner which is the opposite of the normal accepted theory

    I thought that a question about the 'ick' factor in relation to menstruation is the question of whether sex is an option? Some people are not into it (because of the 'ick' factor).

    It's like a spambot had a baby with a Turing test.

    Like the old joke about the difference between PMS and BSE
