that defines the difference between men and women?

I don't particularly look forward to it. I am 53 years old and actually am looking forward to maybe skipping a few of those "28th days" soon, though no sign of that yet!

I joyfully look toward it. It's a way of letting me know that my body is in balance and that for the most part, I'm healthy. It's nothing bad and I certainly don't treat it as a "curse". What's so bad about having to use some extra products for 3 days? Big deal. Men don't have that special indicator.

i think it's part of the division... the whole ability to carry life in one's body is the main division i think (physically).
as to looking forward to menstrating (i assume that's what you meant? i don't have the 28 day cycle so...) i don't right now cuz i'm trying to get pregnant. didn't so much before either, not that i hated it or anything, just isn't like looking forward to a birthday or whatever.

In my culture, your 'time' is a way to acknowledge the power and responsibility that women hold as the bears of life. It is a time to treat yourself well... honour yourself. I think that the ability to carry life is the primary difference between men and women. Not better or worse, just... complementary.

I love it really it makes me feel like a natural woman. I love the cramps and the nice richness of the blood flow. It reminds me that I'm still young, fertile, and healthy!

I have no idea what you are talking about or referring to. You really need to be more clear with you questions so that others can make sense out of them.

not so much. i would rather not have it at all... except the alternative is pregnancy which is definitely worse at this point in my life. so i take it as the burden that it is... but the lesser of two evils.
