Bloody Horny

Why am I extra-freakin horny when I have my period?

I don't get it. Evolutionarily speaking, females should be extremely horny during ovulation because that is PRIME time to get pregnant... reproduce, continue life, all that crap.

So why is it that some of us get that way when there is little to no chance of getting knocked up?

Alice at Columbia U. has some theories. "Some women feel increased sexual energy during their period. The possibility of pregnancy is reduced (but not eliminated) during menstruation, and this may free women to feel more sexual during this time. Also, there is more pelvic congestion during a woman's periods, so she is already experiencing this heaviness, which may trigger or translate to arousal. Furthermore, because of the menses, there is additional lubrication, making penetration more comfortable. Finally, orgasm is a known reliever of pelvic congestion and cramps."

Well let's compare these theories to what happens to me. I don't really get cramps. I rarely feel heavy or bloated. In fact, most women are jealous of my periods: 2 days, light flow, no issues.

I guess it's the freedom to f*ck and not pop out little Roxy's that gets me going.
