I see so many questions on here asking "could i be pregnant" or "i haven't had my period what could be wrong" all that kinda stuff. don't they teach this stuff in school? If not I think they should.

Of course they don't teach that stuff in school. School teaches you nothing about surviving in the world. It just dumps you out on the world with no knowledge of some very basic things.

unlike men, women have so many things going on with their bodies at ALL times of the month.
and not every woman fits a the same biological category. so when something doesn't seem quite right, we sometimes worry and going to the doctor often (thankfully) results in "everything's fine".
some women are on an exact 28 day cycle, while some women have 2 periods a year. some women get immobilizing cramps, while others feel nothing. some women have morning sickness throughout their entire pregnancy, while others never suffer from it a day.
there are SO many variables, classes (which ARE available) cannot cover everything...only the basics.
hope this helps.

It's not that some women are ignorant about their bodies. A woman's body is a little more complicated than a man's I think. Each body responds differently to change, that's why women ask questions about being pregnant because for some women they have obvious symptoms, others not so much, and their symptoms vary. When a women asks about missing her period, it;s not because she's ignorant, it's because there are very many different things that could be causing it, not just pregnancy. I don't think you realize how complex a woman's body really is.

Sometimes they teach it in school. But also it's a VERY scary time for most women. They are either anxiously hoping that they are pregnant or really worried and it's comforting to hear what other people have gone through and their experiences. Like if you got cancer or something else that's life changing wouldn't you want to talk to people who have it instead of just reading it in a book? Plus you are faceless on here so somethings are easier to ask here than face to face to a person...

because our society has treated and still treats sex and anything related to it as taboo. and many schools do teach it, but many are not allowed to because of school board and pta/pto voting. it's sad and it causes teen pregnancy to run rampant. my mom has a friend who was telling me how lucky i am/was (i'm now 25) to have a mom who answered my questions about it. she (the friend) started her period when she was 9 and all her mom did was give her pads and some tylenol for the cramping. she ended up pregnant when she was 13.
did you know that many schools are also only allowed to teach abstinence as a contraceptive? it's sad that we don't teach that if you're going to do it, and we all know that many do (not all), do it safely. it's unfortunate that we have to learn this stuff from commercials.

a million - maximum persons who say that are little boys who not in any respect even see a real vagina outside of porn. In our protection, you actually have a collection of females/females in this communicate board putting forward "Oh he has massive ft/fingers/etc, he must have a large penis" that is only as stupid. i'd call it a draw. 2 - In our protection, We adult males are extra without delay ahead with what we want/want and do not benefit this nicely with subtleness as females do. We, for the most area, really have 5 needs: eat, drink, use the rest room, have sex, sleep. not very puzzling to comprehend why we adore those. it is also more convenient for a lady to understand what a guy like because our minds are almost continually on sex (for the most area) the position as there is been lots of horror thoughts the position even as a guy asks a lady what she needs or if some thing is the count number only for them to assert not some thing and then snap on the adult males for not "understanding" what replaced into the project. A draw. 3 - That relies upon on the college that replaced into giving the sex ed. even as i replaced into in severe college, the sex ed replaced into an extremely uncomplicated communicate about "penis is going into vagina, use condom or you get stds and also you get pregnant". Gender has not some thing to with it, it is about the instructors so no factor for you right here. 4 - ok...? there is only as many stereotypes about adult males than there are about females. i imagine I only disproved your actuality about it taking position extra in course of one gender over the different. actuality: No 2 vaginas are the very same tightness. someone who's a virgin would have a vagina it fairly is a lot tighter than someone who's say a porn fashionable individual who's had universal sex with someone with a large penis. <3

The female body is much more complicated because of course they have the capacity to have children. Their bodies are always in some stage of menstruation. Getting ready to be pregnant, ovulating, bleeding, the cycle repeats....
Just be glad you are a boy like me!
