While it's true that our periods can be a total drag — mood swings, pimples, and cramps — I've heard women say they get extra horny during their time of the month — perhaps it's all those hormones pumping through their veins! Sure, it can be messy, and many men get grossed out by the idea of getting it on when Aunt Flo's in town, but tell me, where do you stand on having sex when you're on your period?

I'm fine with it.
1I dunno...I can't.
2I will at the VERY beginning when there's barely anything (with a condom of course). And maybe at the end with a condom again...
I'm fine with it but I'm also on a really strong BC pill (b/c I get cysts) and have a super light period for only 3 days. My boyfriend wouldn't care even if it was heavy, as long as we used a condom.
3No problem with it.
4no problem with it but sometimes im really achey
5i really like having sex during my period because i'm usually much more sensitive and it feels extra good
plus, it helps me not get cramps as badly. but my boyfriend isn't as into it, so i'll have to work on that...it's like, hey we swap all kinds of fluids so what's
wrong with a little blood? lol
6My husband doesn't mind AT ALL, which is great, but I still feel kinda weird about it.
7hahahaha
pixiedust1010, my bf is the same. And I am like...dude it's blood!
8The, uh, cleanup is the only part I don't like.
9I'm fine with it, but hubbie is a little squeamish, so we abstain.
10with the right guy, its not so bad.
11I get pretty horny but my boyfriend wants nothing to do with it. It grosses him out, which I can understand, but it just sucks cuz I rarely get horny thanks to my BP. *sigh*
12I dont like it. It grosses me out. :/
I have done it. But No I don't really enjoy it.
I get my butt all dirty full of blood and sometimes my covers get dirty even if I place a towel on it. lol.
Gross.
13I don't like it. My bf is fine with it but I generally say no, unless it's the last day.
14Im fine with it but my hubby always
when he even thinks about it!
15I'm with you Pixiedust, sometimes I like it even more. My ex didn't care at all. I hope I find someone else who doesn't care too, that would really eff it up! lol
16Really eff it up if they didn't want to, I mean. Blah, sorry, I'm done.
17As long as I'm not in serious pain and preparations are made, I'm good with it and so is my fellow.
18Uggh.... I don't think I could get past the idea... I don't think I would be appealing to any of the 5 sense... I think I look weird, gross and bloody... I feel all crampy... I bet I smell ...and on top of that I just complain about everything else I feel while on my period. Its just not a fun time.. I just want to be left alone for one week in the month and not have to worry about being seductive.
19Only in the shower.
And even that's rare. I feel gross when I'm menstruating.
20i dont care even if my boyfriend wanted to i still wouldnt be able to. i get lightheaded over a paper cut. its just never gunna happen for me lol. plus i'm too busy feeling gross and fat during my period so i definitely am in no mood to get naked at any point during that time. i'm sure its different for everyone but i could never...
21Absolutely not.
22I'm with Jude C--the worst part is the clean-up. Otherwise I love the heightened sensitivity.
23I second that, Krradford. Plus it's not just blood you're swapping...it's also mucus, clots, uteral lining...ugh, not comfortable with the idea. Plus I'm anything but horny during my period.
24uteral lining ewwww i know...i can only do it at the beginning or end...otherwise i get grossed out haha.
25NOPE I am a CUTI, which in my hubbys language is "chronic Urinary Tract Infection" EVEN if i tinkle, I will get one if i have sex on my period.
26i could care less, but my boyfriend thinks it's gross, so we don't
27more enjoyable then when i'm not on it. i can't explain it.
28Doesn't bother me or my guy. Which, weirdly, I sort of respect him for. I like that he's not bothered by something that's natural and not anything I can help happening.
29Just put down a towel and I am good to go!
30Just put down a towel and I am good to go!
31Bothers me a lot actually but yep i've done it, I just don't like the aroma at all
It puts me off it myself, i get very paranoid about it. Call me old bird.
32And my back hurts..so sex isn't on my mind most of the time.
33Depending on the situation...we do it fairly often...sometimes in the shower so its not so messy haha... but ya I enjoy it and its usually his idea so he must enjoy it too
34Its just wrong.
35Never on the first 2 days. YUCK! Occasionally on the others.
36my ex used to refuse to even sleep with me when i was on my period...no cuddling just in case. the first time i told my new guy, i told him because he really enjoys going down on me, and i didn't want to freak him out. he didn't eat me out, but he didn't care at all. i really like the extra sensitivity, and yes i get extra horny on my period. i often wonder if it is just because you are so wet down there that time of the month
37Of course, we've done it and it's alright for me and fiancee.
The first 2 days usually equal
cramps and excessive flow. After that, it's all good.
38Only after the 2nd day tho' LOL
My husband is fine with it, but I prefer to put a tampon in and have oral sex instead.
39eew
40Sex is the absolute LAST thing I want to do when I'm on my period.
41I don't particularly enjoy it (worrying about the mess makes it hard to relax - I'm always wondering if I'm on the towel); but the way our schedules are lately, we don't get to have sex very often so I can't let my period stand in the way!
I had a boyfriend once who, when greeted with the fact that I had my period, thought for a minute and said "Oh, you can go down on me, then." Epic FAIL. And I did NOT give him the proper "bish plz" look that he deserved. Really wish I had.
42bbkf, wow.....really wow..i call that brave and very naughty (in a good way)
I will
be so paranoid!
43No stanks... and furthermore, a woman could get an infection.
44or maybe you meant you give him oral sex and he does nothing back?
45Nope, I meant me. My husband loves it because I'm so sensitive at that time. Well, he really loves giving it all the time, actually!
46Oh wow...i guess i'd say you're one lucky lady!
47I feel too achy to think about sex during my period.
48My boyfriend doesn't care. He thinks all sex is great sex and we shouldn't waste the week staring at eachother when we could be....
I could have applesauce coming out of me for all her cares...just as long as I'm up for it and nothing's broken then it's all systems go!
49Yeah that doesn't happen when its that time of the month. I think it is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too gross and I'm glad he feels the same.
