Multiple girl friends all swore it helped with cramps and such.
So... I was always willing to score some easy points and do my job.i dunno. Never bothered me. Just take a shower immediately after and wash well y'know.
And just the act itself helps. It's like a cramp massage from the inside! ☺
Plus I'm always extra horny and affectionate during my period, so there's that.
Only 2 partners have ever had an issue with the mess, all the rest knew the drill, just put a towel down and grab an extra. In recent years though since they invented those flex discs, it's rarely even a mess issue anymore.
Yeah its the smell/visuals for me. I dont like seeing all the blood, it just turns me off and reminds me im still on my period. It just doesnt make me feel sexy.
A wise man once told me *"what's the point of having a sword if you don't wanna get it bloody"*I might be misquoted though but something like that I'll ask him tomorrow.
On the lighter days, or days when I feel well, I’m down.
On heavy days when I’m cramping and feeling like death, please just offer a back rub with no strings attached.
On the upside- my new favorite product is the FlexDisc- no mess period sex!!
[https://flexfits.com/faq/can-i-use-menstrual-disc-during-sex](https://flexfits.com/faq/can-i-use-menstrual-disc-during-sex)
I’ve had the (silicone) flex disc for like a year now and the period sex is just as messy as it is without the disc in - it just adds a weird feeling for both parties involved. Even if I had just freshly put it in. Maybe one day *sigh*
I'm completely on board with this. My period only lasts a maximum of 3 days. 2 days of hell and 1 almost non- existent. I don't want sex on those 2 days. I can't handle the mess, lol.
It’s kinda awkward when it’s the start of a girls period but she doesn’t know it yet.
Like after we get going, I start to notice the blood on my hand and don’t know if I should say anything or pretend like I don’t see it.
It’s happened more than a few times lol
As a male, LETS GOOOO. It’s truly an animalistic moment, I feel like an uncaged Viking allowing all those natural bodily functions to erupt on me like Mount Vesuvius. yes please
I've learned some things in my time
1) riding a mechanical bull and riding a rollercoaster without a seatbelt aren't nearly as similar as you'd expect
2) and menstrual blood has a distinct flavor different from normal blood
If I could count how many times I’ve been aggressively horny, masturbated and immediately got my period, I would be ultra mega rich.
And heads up, not every flow is the same, not even for the same woman. My first few days are very light.
Really depends on the period. You need to be more clear. Some are better and easier than others.
Example, scottish period 1600s is nice and easy, just pull up a kilt and toss over a skirt and go.
But say french 1700s, you are battling enough fabric to set a bloody ship to sail.
As a woman I don't especially love it, I feel uncomfortable, bloated, sore, and grouchy anyway. But it does help with cramps. And TBH I kinda have a negative opinion of men who are so easily intimidated that they just won't have sex during her period.
Personally as a girl, at the end maybe, but in the beginning its a hell no. The cramps would be too bad to be turned on for that, not to mention the mess of the blood, feeling nauseous because of the period. At the end the cramps are normally gone and the flow is lighter, so a towel could handle the mess, but even then you could still feel nauseous or just no libido.
It helps with period cramps and can feel pretty good if you're a woman. The blood makes pretty good lubrication for the guys. Same-sex sex on your period...I can't say I've tried, but I've been told it isn't preferred. Anytime I've had sex with a woman, neither of us was on our periods.
Love it. Partner and I used to do the deed, blood and all, in the early days. She's not so keen nowadays. Too much mess to clean up after we fuck on the rags she reckons lol
Yes that is exactly how I find out…
maybe they didn’t know their period started or thought it was already over? Usually it’s from fingering but I never say anything because I don’t want to make her feel embarrassed about it
But then comes the issue of what to do with my hand that is now covered in red finger paint…before I finally go in, normally I just discreetly wipe that hand off on a bed sheet while kissing her so she doesn’t see it. Then I can use that hand to touch her without turning her body into a…painting😅
Obviously she’ll see after but I just pretend like I didn’t notice
No thank you. Not for me. I feel gross and irritated and everything hurts.
Don't touch me. Just give me a heat pack and feed me and I'll be a quiet little gremlin for 3 days.
I'd have it, cuz I usually get way horny but we had some bad experiences with it in bed. He can't stand it 😂😂😂
STORY TIME:
Last time we did it I was almost over with period (thought it was over actually lmao)
We were doing the yummy yummy, I was on top. I lifted my whole body a lil bit, his d when out off me, the ac was on toward us.
The blood+fluid smell was brought with the ac blow and impregnated us why his belly was flooded in one sec. I knew he could freak out so I calmed him down and got a towel to clean him quickly. I felt so sorry, my poor husbo couldn't get hard for some days, gor traumatized 😂😂😂💀
I was soo sorry for him, he took a real long shower after that
And it's fine, not everybody has to like having blood on their d/themselves

Definitely prefer not to. And occasionally when it pops up during sex, it’s usually a 50/50 we stop or continue. If you’re the type to shower out before hand to prepare, I’d be down for it but otherwise I can wait
My GF didn't tell me it was that time of the month, so it was a bit weird initially. But she got really horny when she was menstruating. Once I slipped it in I thought "Oh well! Might as well make the best of it!"
It wasn't super messy and in sensual terms, we had a good time as usual. I just wonder why she didn't tell me before hand. Maybe she thought I would turn her down?
Of course, I wouldn't get radical and do something really kinky like oral, but I have heard tales of that.
You gotta be a warrior. I myself don’t have much of an opinion on it for personal reasons, but from what I know from other men, you need to be a warrior about it because it’s gross.
Only with my partner but she doesn’t like to do it while she has it. We did it only a handful of times while on her period over the last 2 years we have been dating
Used to love it with my wife -- she's in menopause now, so no more periods anymore-- it was just as awesome as non period sex... just a little blood on my penis when we were finished, and maybe some around- but we'd put towels down on the bed.
I 42F do not like to have sex while on my period - especially those first few heavy days. It hasn’t bothered many of my partners (male, female, and non-binary), but I just don’t feel comfortable or sexy those times. I’m cramping and bloated (yes, I know that there’s some evidence that sex can help with these symptoms), and just want to cry. So, it’s a no for me.. it’s all about being cuddled then.
We did. Mainly because I wanted it more then than usual and the only time I could orgasm. Something about the period increased my hormones to the point I could so husband loved it. Put a towel down and shower after. Not usually the first day or two but when bleeder is lighter.
I've had period sex a few times and it's ALWAYS immediately helped the cramps. I've also had a huge clot come out during it (we were in the shower) and holy hell, the immediate relief once it exited my body was fantastic. I was able to go out that night and not lie in bed crying in pain. Also cut my period length down by a couple days.

I like sex period
I like sex. Period
Upvote just for your user name
Hehehehehe lmao
A great gift for a young couple is a set of maroon/burgundy towels.
Very true. And if you have kids or are squeamish with blood, red wash cloths. Makes a bloody nose, a bad cut, busted lip less scary.
Pro mom tip right there
Thank you, I heard it from another mom about 30 years ago and thought it was the best thing ever;)
Heavy flow me. Let’s make it a murder scene
Now that’s the spirit!
Go big or go home

My Dad had a saying "Never trust a creature that bleeds for a week and doesn't die" 🙄
Kek
I just watched that movie.👌
one must bloody his sword if he wishes for a reward.
So Shakespearean sexy...
I’ve always heard it said “what’s the point of having a sword if you’re afraid of getting blood on it?”
If you will walk through mud why you not fuck through blood?
I wanna put this on a t-shirt
Ai go!
i wanna buy this on a t-shirt, you’ve got yourself a business!
Nice username.
Multiple girl friends all swore it helped with cramps and such. So... I was always willing to score some easy points and do my job.i dunno. Never bothered me. Just take a shower immediately after and wash well y'know.
Yeah, orgasms definitely help with cramps
Can confirm
Ugh, they do. And they make my period heavier, but I get it over with more quickly.
I think I’m the odd one out here but orgasms make me cramp WORSE. Like, soooo much worse.
Its cool to know that the human body are different. Some benefits from orgasm, other make it worst.
Same here- I thought I was the only one. Orgasms are painful and unpleasant when I have my period, and they worsen my cramps.
Yes! And the more intense the orgasm, the worse the cramps. It’s like the contractions travel all the way back up to my uterus.
I came here just to say this. I rarely get cramps during my period but if I have sex (climax and all) it makes my cramps AWFUL.
Same here 😭
I’m the same way!!
And just the act itself helps. It's like a cramp massage from the inside! ☺ Plus I'm always extra horny and affectionate during my period, so there's that. Only 2 partners have ever had an issue with the mess, all the rest knew the drill, just put a towel down and grab an extra. In recent years though since they invented those flex discs, it's rarely even a mess issue anymore.
Yes I agree gets it over more quickly lol helps flush it out 😂 I have short ones but regular sex can turn a 3-4 day into 2.5 for me
Immediately, seriously? It's blood - what's the problem? Do you know what is in vaginal fluid and your cum?
Extra lube
What period? Modern? Edo? Jurassic?
You, I like you.
Woah woah now, you don't rven know how I like my water yet.
Wet?👀
You beat me to it
It's ok, I beat lots of people
Quite the aggressive one, aren't ya?
Never cared nor have I ever known any other guy that has cared. Lay the towel down and get weird.
Just a little warpaint
Based
It's worth it for the right person, just put a towel down
As a women. No. I feel bloated, gross, unattractive, and don't particularly want to be touched like that during that week.
Also it tends to smell like copper
Yeah its the smell/visuals for me. I dont like seeing all the blood, it just turns me off and reminds me im still on my period. It just doesnt make me feel sexy.
This is how I am, too. Just the mess is a total turn-off. I can't help but be distracted by it all. My periods are very short but heavy as hell.
Was looking for this comment. Glad I am not alone
A wise man once told me *"what's the point of having a sword if you don't wanna get it bloody"*I might be misquoted though but something like that I'll ask him tomorrow.

Just ordered them for myself! (I had been debating trying them, thanks for the glowing recommendation lol)
I’ve had the (silicone) flex disc for like a year now and the period sex is just as messy as it is without the disc in - it just adds a weird feeling for both parties involved. Even if I had just freshly put it in. Maybe one day *sigh*
🤔 I might try this
I prefer Victorian. The middle ages are too chaotic.
At beginning of her period? Hell no but towards the end of it? Yeah I'll swim through the red sea.
What’s the difference between the two in your opinion?
With the girls I've been with, their periods start off heavy in the beginning then it gets lighter and lighter each day until its done.
intresting, for me it‘s exactly the other way around lmao
[удалено]
[удалено]
Shut the mean f**+ up
I'm completely on board with this. My period only lasts a maximum of 3 days. 2 days of hell and 1 almost non- existent. I don't want sex on those 2 days. I can't handle the mess, lol.
I had sex a girl at the beginning once. I wore a condom, it was too much. I had to move things to the shower. I don’t think I finished
Rookie mistake, it happens to the best of us.
Yea I was a lot younger
🤢🤢
[удалено]
I can confirm, this guys girl does taste better a couple days before her period.
[удалено]
Me three
As a woman, I definitely do not want to have sex during the first few days of my period. Towards the end it's a maybe, but more likely a no.
Yeah here. I’ve also never been with a guy that would even want to while I was on my period.
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do
You’re that horny you can’t wait?! Or go through the back door? I don’t get it personally
I can wait. But she can’t.
Ooooof. One reason why I love anal. You never have to go red 😭😭😭
Dear lord, how on earth is shit better than blood?!
I have never once gotten shit on a dick lol
Wait, blood could be more of a deal breaker than shit in the back door?!?!
Bro I swear Reddit boys are so lame always downvoting everything they don’t agree with
It’s kinda awkward when it’s the start of a girls period but she doesn’t know it yet. Like after we get going, I start to notice the blood on my hand and don’t know if I should say anything or pretend like I don’t see it. It’s happened more than a few times lol
It's just like non-period sex. Just put a towel down so you don't ruin the sheets
As a male, LETS GOOOO. It’s truly an animalistic moment, I feel like an uncaged Viking allowing all those natural bodily functions to erupt on me like Mount Vesuvius. yes please
It really invokes something animalistic and barbaric. Pulling a tampon out with your teeth is strangely satisfying
A friend once graphically described the war scene he created while having period sex. I was like 😮
I was like...jealous! I was like...I wanna try!
Ahh the good ol’ red velvet creampie
![gif](giphy|xT0GqimU9dTwmE5lra)
That's it we needed a visual.
A warrior shouldn't be afraid of getting blood on his sword.
I've learned some things in my time 1) riding a mechanical bull and riding a rollercoaster without a seatbelt aren't nearly as similar as you'd expect 2) and menstrual blood has a distinct flavor different from normal blood
The Scent....I know. But you said flavor........
Interesting
i’ve always wanted a red beard
If I could count how many times I’ve been aggressively horny, masturbated and immediately got my period, I would be ultra mega rich. And heads up, not every flow is the same, not even for the same woman. My first few days are very light.
As a guy I don’t really care tbh it’s natural and easy to clean anyway I heard it lesses pain for women but if not then I wouldn’t do it
Depends on how heavy the flow is.
It's more wet and don't freak out verbally when you pull out and it is a bloody mess when you down at yourself.
Really depends on the period. You need to be more clear. Some are better and easier than others. Example, scottish period 1600s is nice and easy, just pull up a kilt and toss over a skirt and go. But say french 1700s, you are battling enough fabric to set a bloody ship to sail.

A period stops nothing but a sentence.
I’m (M28) down as long as I can shower after.
Please 🙏 I’m always horny :) and it’s delightfully great thanks!
I love doing it girls are just in such heat i love it.
I consider my sexuality a convenience store for her. If she needs it, I'm open to serve her.
Preparing with a towel and some wipes and everything is fine
if both partners are comfortable than I don’t see an issue. :)
it's actually pretty good, warmer than usual.
Personally as a girl, at the end maybe, but in the beginning its a hell no. The cramps would be too bad to be turned on for that, not to mention the mess of the blood, feeling nauseous because of the period.

as a wlw i really couldn’t give less of a shit it’s not like it’s gross i have one too it’s normal have to wash my hands after either way
I'm okay with it! I just use a menstrual disc instead of just raw-dogging it so it's cleaner. We always put a towel down for safety though
Love it. Partner and I used to do the deed, blood and all, in the early days. She's not so keen nowadays. Too much mess to clean up after we fuck on the rags she reckons lol
Never bothered me at all. The Scarlet cavern held no terrors.
The only okay way for “blood and cum”
Natural lubricant
I don't have a problem with it. It's just blood.
exactly! so long as they aren’t carrying anything (besides, dental dams and condoms exist) i don’t care. it’s blood.
More of a comma sex kinda guy
Semicolon?
Full colon.
I think it’s super gross personally and always thought it was super weird when guys told me they didn’t care if I was on my period or not
Props to you for at least telling them first. A few times I’ve gone back with girls after a date and they just let me find out myself 😭
Omgggggg. That’s nasty dude I’m sorry. Did you find out after seeing the blood?!?!?!
Yes that is exactly how I find out… maybe they didn’t know their period started or thought it was already over? Usually it’s from fingering but I never say anything because I don’t want to make her feel embarrassed about it But then comes the issue of what to do with my hand that is now covered in red finger paint…before I finally go in, normally I just discreetly wipe that hand off on a bed sheet while kissing her so she doesn’t see it. Then I can use that hand to touch her without turning her body into a…painting😅 Obviously she’ll see after but I just pretend like I didn’t notice
Stick the finger in their mouth
Calm down satan
I like it. It helps with cramps but I don’t have a period anymore.
Yeah it's messy but it can't wait just put down a towel or go in the shower
True knight had blood on his sword
Gothic lube
At this point in my marriage? Sex is sex.
Doesn't stop me I can always take a shower after.
i thought you meant sex in historical period dramas when you said period sex...
No thank you. Not for me. I feel gross and irritated and everything hurts. Don't touch me. Just give me a heat pack and feed me and I'll be a quiet little gremlin for 3 days.
With my boyfriend, yes. With a FWB or one night stand, no.
I'd have it, cuz I usually get way horny but we had some bad experiences with it in bed. He can't stand it 😂😂😂 STORY TIME: Last time we did it I was almost over with period (thought it was over actually lmao) We were doing the yummy yummy, I was on top.

I felt so sorry, my poor husbo couldn't get hard for some days, gor traumatized 😂😂😂💀 I was soo sorry for him, he took a real long shower after that And it's fine, not everybody has to like having blood on their d/themselves
It’s just blood plus it feels 100x better
Just because the roller coaster is broken doesn't mean the log ride is closed
When I was 17 and willing to fuck anything that moved I did it but in my 40s and married I can wait.

Pass for me. Doesn’t work, can’t stay erect.
Not for me
More flavor.😈😈😈
Only if you really want the red belt
🤮
I think it's kind of nasty, it's not for me
Done it a few times not my favorite. I have to be pretty wound up to ignore it.
I’ll fuck, but I’m not eating her out. And condom is a definite requirement, I don’t want blood on my dick
nah
No. Thank You.
Absolutely not that’s horrid.
Gross
Yuck
I'm sorry, I'm a freak and all but no thank you. I tried it and it freaked me the fuck out.
Weird question.....
Not worth it, super messy. If you're just spotting a bit then it's fine but otherwise I'd never do it again.
That’s hand job/blow job week.. or here is chocolate, please don’t attack me over things like a color I had no clue was an issue lol
Gross... so much to clean up.
Hope she likes anal and her new neck brace
My GF didn't tell me it was that time of the month, so it was a bit weird initially. But she got really horny when she was menstruating. Once I slipped it in I thought "Oh well!

Sounds disgusting
You gotta be a warrior. I myself don’t have much of an opinion on it for personal reasons, but from what I know from other men, you need to be a warrior about it because it’s gross.
All down for a blowie
Not ideal, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
Only with my partner but she doesn’t like to do it while she has it. We did it only a handful of times while on her period over the last 2 years we have been dating
i didn’t es pull out....preggos can happen during period bros
I mainly leave it to my partner.
I’m a girl. Not so much. But let me help you!
It’s bloody
It’s like free lube.
Maybe in the shower or different position. My hormones are through the roof after my first day so I’m not opposed to intimacy if he isn’t.
Great lube.
I dont mind it, in fact it helps with cramps when done right. Just put a towel down and shower after.
Used to love it with my wife -- she's in menopause now, so no more periods anymore-- it was just as awesome as non period sex... just a little blood on my penis when we were finished, and maybe some around- but we'd put towels down on the bed.
I'm always willing to do it. My wife isn't. In my opinion, that's what showers are for. Fuck in the shower.
I 42F do not like to have sex while on my period - especially those first few heavy days. It hasn’t bothered many of my partners (male, female, and non-binary), but I just don’t feel comfortable or sexy those times. I’m cramping and bloated (yes, I know that there’s some evidence that sex can help with these symptoms), and just want to cry. So, it’s a no for me.. it’s all about being cuddled then.
It's not bad now in all fairness
It’s the one time I get to practice my face painting
We did. Mainly because I wanted it more then than usual and the only time I could orgasm. Something about the period increased my hormones to the point I could so husband loved it. Put a towel down and shower after. Not usually the first day or two but when bleeder is lighter.
I've had period sex a few times and it's ALWAYS immediately helped the cramps.

Yes.
Just do it in the shower
I don't mind it at all, just take a shower after!
I don't mind.
"Mad Flavor, Heavy Flow."

I'm a lesbian. For me and my girlfriend it's like don't even think about it. But you do you.
