Periods are an inevitable part of life.
I don’t understand why people talk about them like they’re some disgusting taboo when more than half of the population has to deal with them every month. I’m not suggesting that we shout about our periods from the rooftops. But why should they be thought strange? Men who are embarrassed just by looking at a period product need to grow up a bit. And I assumed that was happening in recent years as people became more open to change.
However, many people are still upset with their significant other for disposing of their pads in someone else’s home. What else are you supposed to do? Do you intend to keep the pad? What’s the harm if you properly dispose of it in the trash can? It’s not like someone is going to reach into it and rummage through the garbage. Because if they’re doing that, they’re just strange.
However, this particular guy thought it was impolite that his brother’s wife threw away her pad in his trash. This story is even stranger than it appears. So, scroll down and read for yourself.

This is going to be a long story, so strap in.
Right from the start, we understand that they really don’t get along.
But things were going well this time until his brother came back from the bathroom.
He then addressed his brother in private and explained his issue.
He explained that she had disrespected him by throwing her pad in his trash.
So the guy asked his wife about this after the dinner was over.
She obviously was not having any of this and told him such.
She was also quite pissed at his brother which is understandable.
After all, he had made a big deal out of nothing.
Their argument didn’t end there and they continued even after they were home.
So he decided to ask the Internet for their opinion thinking that he was in the right.
When I see stories like this, I am always genuinely shocked. They are not teenagers or children; they are fully grown adults. Is it important that he is single and lives alone? He obviously understands menstruation, so is it really that strange that his brother’s wife may be menstruating? And why was he looking in the trash can in the first place? Even if the trash can didn’t have a lid and he saw the pad, it shouldn’t be considered a big deal. Her husband is also in the wrong for failing to defend her and blaming her for his brother’s immature behaviour.
However, Reddit was not at his side.
And everyone called him out on his immature behaviour.
People were gobsmacked by the whole ordeal.
They sounded like little kids rather than middle-aged men.
It is normal for people to have periods.
I can sort of understand why he is single now.
It isn’t as if she used her pad as a decoration.
Or put it in the sink to anger him.
She had thrown it in the trash like anyone else would do.
I have never even thought about disrespect when disposing of my pad.
The brother does not like the wife.
And thus was trying to find a reason to get angry at her.
Because if this is really what he thinks, humanity is doomed.
Some individuals were also quite angry.
I would have to agree with this one.
He should have had her side.
But instead thought that his brother was right
I can understand why he is still single.
It is nothing to be ashamed of.
It happens every month so chances are he is going to end up with hygiene products in his trash.
Unless they use a diva cup, this is going to happen.
They do sound like children.
I guess he must so he doesn’t disrespect the house owner.
After all that drama, we are in need of an adorable dog tax!
Just look at those eyes! Aren’t they simply hypnotizing? I know I cannot look away from this puppy and really want to cuddle with him.
