Yes because periods are so dramatic and emotional for every woman it becomes a theatre performance every month. Showing how their knowledge of periods are limited to bad tv where the heroine cries in a pint of ice cream.

Right?! Also as far as I am aware, the whole concept of periods "syncing up" has dubious evidence even among real women... someone feel free to correct me, but it seems much more entrenched in culture than in biological reality.

its a myth. that is all, these people watch too many chick flicks and coming of age teen movies and think UwU that looks like fun.

It’s a combination of the facts that:

A. People look for patterns even when they don’t exist B. Cycles don’t last the same amount of time for every woman and they aren’t always 28 days. There’s bound to be occasional overlap.

Yeah, it's a myth. It's based on a real paper but the findings were never repeated.

Its been a thing for me, I out alpha all women I work with or been with because they seem to sync up to mine but it's anecdotal obviously.

A full blown female synching is not the same as some dude taking hormones. I'd say with transwomen this is mostly a misery loves company type of thing.

Also transmen can still get periods, kind of funny how they don't speak about this or synching up.
