Actually it is possible for a woman to get pregnant during her period. The possibility is slight, but it still exists.

Arrghh! For starters, yes the smell. You cannot get over the smell. Secondly, it tastes like rusty pennies. Not the most arousing thing in the universe. Lastly, if her flow is heavy, they'll ruin the good sheets & you'll be chomping down on those Menstrual chunks like it was Big League Chew.

The Jezebel article is more mocking guys for being wussy little bitches about menstruation than saying they should all want period sex. And it's true, guys really ARE wussy little bitches about it. It's like, I can suck your dick and deal with your spooge but you can't handle a little blood? Who's the pussy now?

Actually now that I've gone and read the article and the first dozen or so comments to it, the objections seem to be from women, not men. The women commenting are basically saying their boyfriends would be or are fine with it, while they themselves have various reasons for not wanting to do it.

That is, yet another out of touch article from jezebel.

Plus, my seed is pure! Women everywhere should be honored to be in possession of such potent, genetically superior seed, especially when its in their mouth.
