Keep what? -
They keep it. The only time my hubby is in a good mood is when whatever sport he is watching wins. Other than that he's just a pesimistic pissy person. -
I'm not surprised... -
Why is that?
-
Self-evident, really.

I know I thought when I married him we would balance each other out,but here lately everything just sets him off. I hate getting in the car with him bc acording to him the whole world doesn't know how to drive. He just really is nott a happy person EVER,bout got on my last nerve to. I know he's gonna end up divorcing me,but I'm gonna let him do it,bc I really did mean those vows.

I just thank GOD he's a truckdriver and only have to deal with his sour pus 2 days a week. I think that is the only thing saving us right now. I started going back to church,but is sux sitting there by myself seeing other couples all luvy duvy. I'm just gonna keep on keepin on tho.

Men do not get PMS. It's a feminist smear campaign to try to level what is obviously an uneven playing field from the dawn of creation. I mean, would someone please acknowledge that men DO NOT menstruate!?
A man doesn't blame hormones. He just owns the fact that he's an asshole. -
It's not exactly PMS but it is cyclical - Full Moon Syndrome. Every Full Moon, pay attention to your male partner's mood swings - generally, they will either be extremely affectionate and loving and wanting to be with you, or the spawn of satan and you are his arch nemesis and you will argue about the dumbest things in the world, down to folding his socks right. The phases of the moon, and astrology in general, are more powerful than you may think when it comes to relationships, cosmic energy and mood swings.... Mercury Retrograde anyone? -
They have commas -
depends on who you ask
ask a man.. no they don't
ask a woman.. yes they do
I consider myself an expert. I am surrounded by men, 3.5 of them in house with me. Yes, they do get PMS
(the .5 is a steppish-son who is here only on weekends) -
No, we're just miserable now and again.
And keep what? Or am I just not down with the lingo these days?-
I agree, "we're just miserable now and again." My wife asks me what happen to you, i tell her leave me alone for 30 minutes and i will be fine.
She doesn't.

YEAH - Men have PMS (Post Menstrual Stress)
This usually appears during the first 5 days after men's wives have their PMS period. It's hard to be affectionate and intimate after a few days of HELL AND EMOTIONAL TURMOIL ... so, as the wives start becoming 'normal human beings' once again, men are still on their tippy toes. -
I found women get moody up and down at many different times. Guys are normally the same way all the time. If they have a little moodiness in their personality, it shows sometimes. But the extreme ends of the scale are far less though for guys.-
Not really true, just what men "like to think." Testosterone fluctuates like any other hormone and causes many mood swings in the course of a normal day, having a major impact on overall behavior. Perhaps some men attempt to keep it under wraps because they are pressured by society to do so... but that's down to the individual.
Statistically, men are far more often the ones who cannot control their emotions, egos and actions. I don't even have to back up that point -- the prison populations all over the world in every society in history illustrate it just fine.
How many women compared to how many men lose their tempers and create violence, commit crime, use weapons, harm people (even terrorizing their own families), rape people, start fights, start wars, etc? Seems to me that natural menstrual irritability and pre-menstrual syndrome (which, incidentally, not all women suffer) is pretty harmless in comparison.

From what I've seen, PMS is a totally uncontrollable hormonal swing that sweeps women up into an angry, unhappy swing of emotion.
Men don't have that. We could control all our impulses and unhappy thoughts that come and go. Sometimes, we just want to let it out. All you women need to do is sit us down and ask "whats wrong" and chances are you'll get an angry "I don't know... everything. I'm mad at everything." and that'll be the end of it. -
and keep what? PMS. I swear men have it and it never goes away. They can be worse at certain times of the month but they keep it. Women get moody and eat everything in sight. Men just get grumpy and hateful.

I swear my room mate has PMS,
I am 100% positive infact. And I dont care if the hormones back me up here or not. Maybe it's a mental PMS. -
Really, you're missing the point. We're always grumpy and hateful. We just pretend we're not most of the time.
-
Oh so you say all men suck they just hide it every once i a while when they want something from us women. That is funny and maybe truer than we think.

I don't know about men in general, but I know I don't have it. -
I know of one that does, he now takes "Midol" and he's much better now. -
based on Saturday's interaction, I am going to go with yes -
It is called --------
Post Andropause Not menopause. -
I thought that it was just not getting stale DHT out of one's system. -
I thought PMS was internet speak for "pissed myself shitting" an acronym for those times ROFL don't really describe your fluid hilarity. -
no but we get affected by it -
Only French men and Californians. If they're French, however, it can be cured with cheeses.
