Sacred Blood

Well said, Autumn, very well said.

 

nah I think it's gross as hell and I really wish it didn't come out of my body

 

It's OK, Guard. I understand. Many people, now and especially in the past, were not allowed to express their pain or discomfort. I don't beleive there is any dishonor or weakness to expressing pain, but there are families (including my dh's) who do.

My dh's grandfather died of a completely curable disease because he thought telling someone of his pain was "weak." So he died. A waste of life, IMO.

I understand, Black Guard.

 

drumming in the woods, hahaha.

I'm talking drinking beers, football, throwin darts, bars, fart jokes, checkin the hotties out, every male stereotype on the subject, lol.

Not that I'm like that at all, but there are those moments, of course. Male bonding isn't really like that though. I mean, really, I'd say we're not all that different from women. At least in my experience, with my CLOSE friends, we talk about heavier shit and it's cool. That's true male bonding, in my opinion. We aren't really just shallow sports fanatics, haha.

 

i flush it down the toilet along with millions of other women who do. it's not that sacred to me. lol.

 

Personally, I feel any divine reality would be beyond sex. Thus, a god or goddess is not worth worshipping, because it's still just duality. Good evil, yes no, pleasure pain, male female. I feel religion is meant to get beyond this, and any that doesn't is a failure in my opinion. The feminine principle is good though, considering our culture has been obcessively masculine principle oriented for way too long. Balance is needed to transcend sex, so femininity needs to be equal. But it isn't the end-all either.

I know this isn't the forum for religion, but i wanted to respond.

 

Applespark::::~~~i love my femanine and my masculine sides but this thread was to call to notice the sacred ness of my woman and femanine side.

I never said bloodrights of women was just part of the femanine side eather there verywell could be some masculine in our cycle times we just havent touched upon it because we are too busy seperating masculine from famanine and we are all both we just need to find those parts of us....finding those parts of us to me is noticing, experiencing them, and celebrating each thing as itself.Applespark::::~~~

 

Cool.

 

i feel that the cramps i get before and during my period takes away anythig magical and sacred about it. ouch!!!!

 

I don't know about sacred, but I do know that it was looked at as sacred in ancient times. Men did not have contact with women then. They could not cook thier food or make thier clothes or anything else, while in thier prespective moon cycles. I tend to go with the full moon, isn't that strange? Anyway, I think there are still lingering feelings of mysticism about it due to the strong conection ancient man gave it with the life force.

 

yeah bc its like the cleansin process of preparing our bodies for starting the cycle over again i guess- yeh i think its kinda holy- bc i think that women are kinda holy- i also believe everything in nature is symbolism so i think it must mean something pretty important but i dont know what yet- never thought ab it till now

 

yes it is powerful!!!!!!! women in general should stop making it into something terrible and embrace the power that we women have in our monthly moons.

 

if you go to my website and look under poems you'll see how i feel about it...

 

Is spelling "women" with a pretentious "y" the new thing in rebellion these days or what?

 

omfg period blood makes me want to raph!!!!

 

no, my period can kiss my arse!

ts not sacred for me, its yuck, I hate having to deal with it. My spit, shit or urine isnt sacred, why should my menstral blood be sacred

 

Wow this thread is a year old and it came back..
