this completely clueless girl, we'll call her jane, was at her friends (lets call her karen) house for a sleepover. as luck would have it, jane got her period! so she starts freaking out, but karen was like, "oh, dont freak out kiddo. my mom knows all about this stuff, lets go ask her." so they go ask mom. naturally, as happened in all these crazy videos they made us watch, mom was extatic. she was like "ahhh janes a woman! jane, arent you so excited that you have to bleed out your vagina every month for the rest of your life!! lets celebrate!! im calling your mom to let her know!! im telling my husband!! yes everyone is so excited!!!!!" after this bout of excitement, jane still had absolutely no idea what the fuck was going on. as fate would have it, karen's dad was making pancakes for breakfast. being creative, he decides its a good idea to make the pancakes in the shape of a uteris, ovaries and all. then mom, in an attempt to really get the point across, takes the strawberry syrup and shows poor jane what was going on.
well, considering 6th grade was almost 10 years ago and i still vividly remember that video (and have issues eating pancakes in any shape besides your basic circle), id say im pretty scarred.
yeah...something about being a woman and having the opportunity to have children and take care of the menfolk and be lovely little domestic goddesses was supposed to merit a block party. i just know i tried to avoid it for as long as possible.
