    Some people did a thing with a specially configured tens machine where the woman would turn it the levels up and up until it was at the level of their normal period pain and then the man would go through the same levels stages and be gasping and writhing before it got there.

    Turns out men have been massively underestimating period pain for centuries.

    That said, some women experienced far, far higher levels than normal and were encouraged to take that data to a non-dismissive healthcare professional.

      As a dude, I want to believe that it’s less than it is because that’s just wholly unreasonable that women have to put up with that.

        They’re were a lot of men who insisted on immediate medical attention who got told that their partners had tried that and absolutely nothing would come of it.
