      Yeah, I remember my first girlfriend having to explain to me the concept of occasional discharge. Bonus: Apparently it is slightly acidic and thus tends to ruin underwear, especially the slightly sexier, black kind because there’s less cloth material and black is apparently a chemically sensitive color.

      That was before I had seen Alien, so I made that connection a lot later.

        it also correlates with when you might want to wear sexier underwear, so really the lingerie industry has no idea what it’s doing

        Man, Ridley Scott really put a lot of thought into the Alien in Alien.

      Right before menstruation, vaginas often get super wet but it’s a little thicker than typical horny wetness. This can sometimes feel like the sensation of bleeding so it can be surprising to check and find that it’s not blood. For me, I also get extremely horny around this time.
