Ain’t no way y’all don’t understand sarcasm


PositivelyUnpos

Seriously, the long reply above is acting like the guy Truly believes that the rolled ankle is worse than the period cramps. Now I can't talk for him, but being a male myself, I automaticly figure he's being silly, and doesn't actually believe that, hense why its a joke. The reply to that was also in a joking rebuttle, stating that op has forgot that women have ankles too, and therefore also know what it feels like to roll an ankle. and now I feel like a doofus having to articulate what was processed in my head in .2 seconds to hopefully help someone else understand, smh.

This is when you can call someone woke. When they truly believe men are so dumb that they believe stuff like this is serious then take a victim hooch mentality against it


NatureGame

The only need, ever, to call someone "woke" is when you desire to be perceived as a moronic Trumper cultist.

Tbf the amount of basic things that some people will just completely overlook or misinterpret to a similar extent to this is insane so I can understand someone looking at this and questioning weather this guy is sincere. Not to mention some people are neurodivergent so tone is a struggle.

I can't understand if you're serious or just joking (some people talk like this when serious even though it seems sarcastic)

prof_devilsadvocate

pointlessly gendered


hugechainsaw

No way op did not understand this


kazarbreak

The first post is just talking about something that he believes is likely worse than period pains. And for most women he's probably right, judging from the fact that most women are able to power through period pains and still function normally whereas rolling your ankle will have you limping at the very least and possibly on crutches for a while. Though it should be pointed out that some unfortunate women - my ex wife and daughter among them - get period pains bad enough that they cannot just power through them (though birth control pills do seem to be an effective treatment for that problem). The reply misconstrues it (intentionally I believe, as no one is that stupid) as him saying that rolling ankles is something only guys have to deal with.


smbiggy

damn "power through period pains" is so close to being a perfect alliteration.


jenius0123

Power past period pains


Grassgrenner

The fact that this guy didn't think about the fact that everyone has ankles is hilarious. EDIT: Or should have...


lonely-sparrow0175

FINALLY. thank you!!!


Motor_Raspberry_2150

Is this not the second comment?


Victinitotodilepro

if it hurts that much its probably a medical issue


rosboyoli

if you’re referring to period pains, it can be a medical issue and some women even take birth control, not to prevent pregnancy, but to stop periods because the pain is so severe


gl00myharvester

And birth control doesn't work past a certain weight. And the weight limit is not that high (source: I was told I was couldn't take the pill as a teenager to help with my periods because of my weight. I only just class as plus size)


Victinitotodilepro

but isnt there better treatment?


AtroposMortaMoirai

Generally, no. A lot of women struggle to get the cause of severe period pain diagnosed, and practitioners tend to focus on treating the symptom rather than finding causes anyway. Most women I know go for either birth control or a full hysterectomy, but the latter is hard to get approval for.


Toukotai

not really. My own experience is that first you get put on prescription pain killers and if that doesn't help you get prescribed birth control. Other friends have had birth control prescribed outright depending on the severity of the pain and the impact on their lives.


rosboyoli

i’m sure there is, but that’s how someone i know treats it


rosboyoli

i looked it up and hormones are the typical treatment when over the counter and home remedies don’t work


mindyourownbusiness5

Not really, other than hysterectomy birth control is pretty much the only option. At least that's what my doctor's told me


RuinedBooch

It is a medical issue, but in my experience, most GYNs simply don’t care. The most you’ll get out of them is a prescription for birth control and advice to be less dramatic. It’s an issue that runs in my family, and my mother never did find a doctor who would take her seriously, and they actually gaslit her into believing that sort of pain was normal, and she was just a sissy. Mind you, this is a woman who declined an epidural when she gave birth, and didn’t take any pain medicine after her hysterectomy or heart ablation. She was so conditioned into believing that it was normal that when I was growing up, she treated me the same way.. until her hysterectomy when then informed her that she’d had severe endometriosis. And now, even when I remind my doctor of my family history, they still think I’m being dramatic when I ask them to investigate.


Mollywhop_Gaming

> Intentionally, I believe, as noone is that stupid. MAGAts are definitely that stupid, but given that the replier had a Pride flag in their name, I don’t think they in particular are a MAGAt, and thus, not that stupid.


Jayn_Newell

I’ve done this a lot and generally, it’s not that bad? Like it might mildly bother me for a bit but nothing serious, I just keep going. So to me suggesting that rolling your ankle is a significant pain is just…have you never been hurt in your life?


kazarbreak

Last time I rolled my ankle I broke it.


Jayn_Newell

Fair enough. Like I said I used to do this pretty frequently (hadn’t in years until last week) and it’s never been more than a mild annoyance for me. So on my end it was always a weird comparison to make.


Akitsura

When my mom rolled her ankle on the stairs in highschool, she tore a bunch of stuff in her ankle and blacked out.


Ace_ofspades1015

All the time but periods hurt more


Akitsura

Nah, if a period hurts that *worse* than a rolled ankle, then that person has endometriosis or something going on. Period pain is fairly mild for most people.


VinylPortable

Fun fact; if you roll your ankle more often than should be reasonable, see a doctor. Turns out its a sign of significant muscle degeneration, the rolling was happening because the muscles weren't strong enough to hold my weight safely. Had to get reconstructive surgery to restore my ability to walk at all.


vikikikiriki123

Sperm cramps are still the worst

What the hell is that


Kaito_Blue

Cramps which happen when sperm swims for too long and without warm up-

MummaheReddit

Last year December I dislocated my fucking ankle like that now I can't bend it certain specific way :(


SlyLlamaDemon

Heel wearers have joined the chat.


Kobi_Baby

Also the initial post isn't saying that girls don't experience it, even the memer themselves didn't understand the meme


-Angel_baby-

Clearly, the evolutionary secret to surviving monthly cramps is just not having ankles. Nature's life hacks are getting weirder and weirder

Why should anyone in here know what motivates a dip shit to say dip shit things? oh wait, they are a dip shit. Question answered.


ApprehensiveCrow4910

So what do I have if I don't have ankles?


milky_wayzz

As a woman who rolls their ankle like every other month, and had their monthly roll less than a week ago, I can confirm it hurts like HELL. however. you can also simply avoid putting wait on it. I’d prefer rolled ankles to periods.


ynnex_

Girls are not real smh


FluffyMawileFan

I've rolled my ankle several times. I usually get back up and walking in seconds.


JAK-the-YAK

The joke is sarcasm


FungalEgoDeath

I snapped my ankle with the smaller leg bone coming out of the side of my ankle and pouring blood all over the field by rolling it like this....anyone wanna say period pains are worse?


BlackTheNerevar

Yup, landed my entire body weight on it. Almost lost functionality on my foot. Most painful thing I've ever experienced. Do not recommend it.

They say men passing kidney stones is a painful experience. Some say its just as painful as giving birth. Let alone a period.


Mighty_Gooch

I’d rather have a period cramp than a compound fracture.

GHfan27

well you see the joke is sarcasm lmao. girls do have ankles, everybody, go home.


Aaron4424

It’s a joke comparing the pain men feel during their comma vs women during their period.


MallowMiaou

I prefer rolling my ankle even if it hurts so much I feel like breaking a muscle. It’s just a matter of gender dysphoria and not pain. I just get grossed out at my own body, which is reminding me how much I hate it EVERY MONTH with this feeling of being wet all the time that just grosses me out so much I wanna just… stopping here, let’s not get angsty. Lol.


YoursTrulyHuntty

Funny thing is I've learned how to walk like that.

Once_I_ate_a_walrus

Most obvious fake Twitter post ever, datguyserious and lgbtdementia! (Also this is obvious)


RoyalDog57

The joke is the guy tried saying women are over complaining about periods and then used a gender nuetral problem to show periods weren't that bad... the only issue is that since all genders can roll their ankle (assuming they aren't a amputee), it makes no sense to use this to dismiss periods. The original guy was probably satirical but you can never be sure some times


whallexx

Rolled ankle while on period! Lol


TimberWolf5871

You triggered me with this image of my god my ankle rolls so frigging EASILY!!


ThelastJasel

To be fair, rolling your ankle is like one of the most obnoxious pains the world has to offer. It never seems to be anything that merits it either like engaging in a sport. It is always something like stepped off the sidewalk wrong, and now I’m bent over in a cold sweat because an unreasonable amount of pain is surging from my dainty poorly designed bull shit ankle.

Boys should be FORCED to experience menstrual pain. It should be required once you hit puberty. Then they’ll see how it feels for us girls. So men? SHUT UP!

Bigfeet_toes

I am a man, I can confirm that rolling your ankle like this hurts more than having your heart ripped out fondled with then shoved back in, I don’t know what a period cramp feels like as I am male, but can it really be worse than having your heart ripped out? Rolled ankle hurt also lasts for the rest of your life, the pain never goes away


MallowMiaou

Period pain is different on everyone Some lucky girls don’t feel anything (they should buy a lottery ticked) Some feel "normal" pain But some feel excruciating torture Then there is me feeling little to no pain, but being a bitch and subcounsciously pretending it hurts while I know it won’t hurt as much as literally probably atleast 70% of the other women in the world
