Another "it's not my fault, it's the PMS" story:
Glamour model battered her husband and hotel manager when she lost her temper 'because she was suffering pre-menstrual syndrome' | Mail Online
that "shift the blame" thing is move number one in a womans game. its a natural response they have. VERY rarely do women just come out, and admit their mistakes and take accountability.
its always some immeasurable, unseen, and unnoticed factor that makes a woman "do something"
man, I would never excuse a womans actions because shes having her period. there are moments where as men we go through some hard times, have some physical pain, have some challenges in life we're facing, may be we drank a lot, or what have you, and we cant just start punching people in the face, calling people all types of names, crashing cars or starting fights, cheat on our s/o or whatever and it all gets excused away due to "what we were feeling." and periods give discomfort, yet they dont stop women from doing their jobs right at the workplace, or from doing their school work correctly. so why should it be a legit excuse for them to act up and do something drastic to their man and/or friends? I know that its a pain, sorry to hear, but its not a debilitating pain.
and even people with debilitating pains arent allowed to be a$$holes and get away with it. no one would want to put up with it after a while. thats a quick way to being alone and treated at a distance.
we cant pardon irresponsibility because of that. thank God we dont go through it, but it still wouldnt excuse us from acting like a$$holes and making bad choices. we would get called on it, as we need to be anyways. theres also a huge difference between being cranky and irritable, and in doing something wrong. accountability still has to mean something.
