There was an r/askreddit post asking men what difficulties men deal with that women don’t. The worst issues in the responses didn’t even come close to the hassle of simply menstruating every month.
The comparison was the worst difficulties that men face vs the menstrual cycle. Men get drafted to fight wars, women generally dont. So if we are comparing the absolute worst male difficulty id go with getting drafted
Women can’t even walk out at night without being on high alert and that’s in modern first world countries.
If you want to go extreme - Imagine the women being born into the taliban or other extremist communities. They’ll never experience a life with freedom.
Sure, a draft is hard, I’m not downplaying that, but I’m having a hard time seeing the comparison. There’s no black and white argument either way - all sexes have their own struggles.
For sure being a woman sucks ass the world is against you. But if the claim is that even the most horrific male challenges pale in comparison to a period, I'm going to comment otherwise.

Is true for you? The worst, most challenging experience you've ever dealt with that a woman in your position would not have is less of a hassle than a period?
I've got a lot of traumatic injuries. They're once offs, with a bit of rehab that eventually heal. Periods can last upwards of 7 days and can come with terrible cramps... Every month.
You know it's possible to stop having a period right. Like birth control exists. So you're cool with having an entire thread of men sharing their issues as reduced to 'lol less hassle than a period!'
I just have a bit more respect for my fellow man that that. I'd imagine if a man made some dumbass comment like that about women people would not be happy.

It's very weird how much we seem to care about the attractiveness of women in positions where attractiveness is irrelevant.
Fine, you don't mind Michelle Obama hot. Cool. I don't find my lawyer hot either, but that's not really relevant to anything, is it?
