Women's rights and bodily autonomy have been on a lot of people's mind's lately, especially since last month it was revealed that the US Supreme Court is most likely planning to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that's made abortion a constitutional right up until now.
There's a lot to be outraged about here, but one of the most hilariously awful aspects is that if you look at the 2022 Supreme Court, you'll notice it only has three female justices, while the rest are all men.
Yep, just a bunch of men making decisions about women's rights. We love to see it*.
Should men really be the ones to make that call? Singer/songwriter Peach PRC recently weighed in on that with her own story about how her ex-boyfriend thought the eggs in her ovaries had shells on them. SHELLS!!!
my ex thought the eggs in my ovaries had shells on them. and i think about that every time a man makes a decision on womens bodies.
Peach's tweet immediately went viral and people started chiming in with their own funny-but-frustrating stories about men having zero idea how women's bodies work. See for yourself:
1.
@peachprc I knew a guy who thought during your period, it was the blue liquid they used in the commercials and not blood lol
2.
@peachprc Up until last week my ex thought plan B pills were the same thing as abortion
3.
@peachprc My ex thought you only bled on your period while sitting on the toilet and it lasted a day. He thought I lied about my period lasting 5 days to avoid sex 🙄
4.
@peachprc My friend’s boyfriend thought women just shake over the toilet instead of wiping 💀
5.
@peachprc I once asked a guy how often does he think women have to change their tampons. He said “once a week”
6.
@peachprc My husband thought you go to a doctor when your pregnant then just show up at any hospital and whoever is there delivers your baby...
7.
@peachprc I bled a little once after having sex because my period started and my ex asked if, “I laid an egg”. 😵💫
8.
@peachprc My ex thought that I only had one egg
9.
@peachprc I told mine I had blood in my urine and needed to see a doctor and he said ‘maybe it’s your period’ 😂
10.
@peachprc my fiance thought my uterus was full of air and when i said it wasnt he asked how the baby doesnt asphyxiate
11.
@peachprc A woman on reddit said her bf thought women's periods came out of their butts because his high school gf once mentioned period poops
12.
@peachprc My ex boyfriend once asked me why didn’t I try to hold period blood, like we do with pee😂
13.
@peachprc I saw a tiktok where a man thought we stuck pads to our vaginas like plasters x
14. And finally,
@peachprc I didn’t realize women had urethras until i was like 25.
So...yeah. Maybe all the dudes out there should read a book and ask someone with a uterus what they think before making a decision about what they can do with their bodies.
