1. Despite appearances, almost all women aren’t down for casual sex.
They may say that they are to seem cool, aloof or non-needy, but in truth, sex for most women is an emotional act. It is near impossible for a woman to disconnect the physical act from the emotional connection and/or attachment that follows. And
research has proven that after a certain period of continued physical intimacy, the woman’s body releases certain hormones that are related to nesting and reproduction.

Most women suffer from PMS symptoms to some degree, and for certain women, these symptoms are bloody awful. The sudden and dramatic drop of oestrogen before the period can result in heightened feelings of anxiety, vulnerability, neediness, and even depression. As a woman who’s battled with PMS for my entire adult life, I can honestly say that while I’m experienced enough now to recognize when my thoughts and feelings are being governed by my hormones, I still struggle not to be overcome by them. This may very well translate into irrational arguments or feelings of complete dismay. And then like magic, a day or two into the period, all her troubles will melt away…
But thoughts and feelings aside, PMS can also (and often does) involve hormonal headaches and migraines, lower abdominal cramps and pains, and fatigue and physical weakness. Be kind to the pre-menstrual woman!
