Menstrual cramps are the worst part of being a woman
I have to agree with that.
First, you get these mood swings like being depressed or irritable and you get all of these skin blemishes such as acne prior to receiving one.
Second, you don't realize you made a mess in your pants until it's too late, and it can strike at the worst of times. That blood is a pain in the ass, because it can easily leak through clothes, ruin your bed, and it's also a huge pain in the ass to clean the bed because the stain is hard to wash off.
And third, you need those godforsaken pads/tampons, in the pads' case, they're not perfect and may not cover every part of you, and plus, you need to dispose them somewhere and that's a huge pain too. I haven't used tampons because they look really uncomfortable and there's that toxic shock thing that pads don't have that risk of.
The pain you get during the period can be best described, in my case, as someone using a knife and carving out my insides as if I'm a Jack-o-Latern, but in this case, it's not fun, only a large amount of pain.
Maybe women are more irritable when a period strikes simply because it's a pain in the ass to deal with.
