Evan added that if there was one thing he wanted men to know about women, it was this: “Every female body is different and all female bodies experience menstruation differently (period lengths and associated bodily functions vary, different menstrual care products work better for different people). While some women aren’t affected much out of the ordinary by their periods, some others have it harder, such as one friend who describes her period as a monthly “vicious carnival ride,” and every female body faces disadvantages in this world because of its patriarchal nature and structure.”
