女性有生理期这件事大家都知道,女性在这期间会变得烦躁、易怒好像很多人也都了解。可是,你知道吗?男性其实每月也有那么几天状态不佳的,这种状态主要表现在情绪变化方面。所以,西方人就给男人也创造了个周期,叫做manstration。
Manstration refers to a monthly hormonal cycle for men. Some men get cranky and bitchy for no reason regularly, just like what women go through in their monthlies (known as menstruation). This is where the term manstration comes from.
Manstration(男人月经)指男性每月经历的荷尔蒙分泌周期。有些男性会周期性地表现出无端的烦躁、易怒,这种情绪变化跟女性在月经周期(英文为menstruation)的状态类似。由此便诞生了manstration这个词。
For example:
You are extremely unreasonable today, are you on your manstration?
你最近变得特别不可理喻,你是来“月经”了吗?
