Of course some cultures used to isolate women during their menstural cycle in a women only camp (Some of you Anthropologista or Sociologists can probably come up with examples). This not a practice I agree with. As a Pagan I've learned that during this "Luna Cycle" women are at their most powerful. 'Nuff said - none realy want me to write a three page discourse on this matter which is outside the OP and probably outside CM confines anyway. IronBear It is a little-known but documented fact that women who reside together will, in time, menstruate at the same time. My first off-campus housing was a big farm house with 14 girls, and by summer's end, we were all menstruating at the same time. Most of us also had PMS, though i don't think the phrase was in use then, and the atmosphere in the house became virtually violent during the menstrual periods. i vividly remember one girl threatening bodily harm to another because she had allowed her hair brush to work it's way down between the seat cushions of the sofa -- the girl who was threatened had been looking everywhere for her hair brush, LOL. It was quite an experience, and the guys we all dated seemed to have figured out what was happening and were conspicuiously absent for the period time, LOL. candystripper
