yeah i got it the first time, but i guess you didn't get me the first time ;) i know it's a personal thing and most girls don't want to discuss it. but the original question was is it something girls are ashamed of. i got a lot of people's answer. the reason i asked this question was because because when someone found out about it, they were embarrassed. so that's why i was just wondering.
Offcourse I would never wanna talk about it infront of my male friends..i go to college and many desi guys asked me if u are fasting or no i always tell em noo i m sick.. some says okay but others are like why what happened.. is everything okay u look down.. i m like noo i have fewer or stomanch pain.. i never tell em that i m having cycle these days. its just because i felt embaracd and ashamed as well.. offoucrse its a natural thing u dun have any control byut still its my personn business none of em supposed to know.. and when i cant fast or pray i dun woke up in sehri so my brother always kay isay kia huaa ammi wake her up she supposed to eat sehrii so i always get up eat sehri with em and pretend em that i m fasting..
why is that.. because i m living in states but pakistani and i still kept values from east.. i felt embaraced if anyone of my male frinds figure it out some how..a nd it just i cant stand infront of em..may be because i m too shyy i even dun dicussed this with my female friends i dun tell em uncless i really have to..
and offcourse once i get married i would tell/share each n everything my husband(even though how i m feeling is it too much is it painfull or no) cuz i knwo he is the only person who will give me so much care when i m having period.. like man in my family do, when they knwo their wife isnt welll they dun let her do anything specially cookingh.. soemtime they cook or soemtime they take her out or bring foood from outside… they care about their wife in these days even more than the other days..
desi mans are the best :k: :k: :k: :k: :k: :k:
they are adorable and caring like guys in other race.. 
You ladies DO realize that many men can tell that you're on your period, whether you tell them or not. It's not the stereotypical moodswing thing, no, most women on their periods definitely act differently physically and emotionally.
Just my two cents...
This reminded me of a joke. There were three girls talking about the intensity of pains they suffer. The youngest who was unmaried said that the pain in manstruation is unbearable. The other who just got married said “no, the pain of first insertion is more unbearabe than manstruation”. The third one said " Look you dont know about labour pains and delivery pains. Such pain is defineitely more than all you mentioned". There was a guy who was hearing from behind. He murmurred : " I dont think you ever had your balls pressed pr hit hard!"
Well to me this sharing of cycle is natural and in the eastern society it is a taboo not to share with males howsoever close they are to a woman except husbands ofcourse. If ever any girl in my circle shared it with me I took it natural. I dont think any normal man would make fun of it unless for the sake of fun u normally make of any silly thing.
for fun ya raat ko neend naheen aa rahee thee? Stop missing her this way 
( j/k)
By the way what have you concluded after all these replies. Kisee nateeje pe punhche ke naheen?
I just recalled a colleague of mine saying she has pait mein dard and I unintentionally winked at her…woh sharma ke nikal gayee meree office se and I kept thinking ke isay kia hua until I figured out ke yahee hua tha 
lol 
hmmmm…nateeja: kuch larkiyan kahti hain k NO WAY! kuch kahti hain haan male friends sey share kar leti hain. kuch kahti hain k sirf females sey 
it’s like the elections results:p lekin mujhe jinnsey maloom karna hota hai, woh mujhe khud hi bata deti hain, poochna hi nahi parta
Lucky you…I am feeling butterflies in my stomach right now Now these girls wud say I am making fun of them 
kia karein Allah ne aisa hee banaya hai to hum kia karein, kioon?
hmmm....i'd say i'm not ashamed. It's natural, what can you do. But its just a thing you don't talk abt with boys. Not their business. And anyways, do you guys really want to hear abt how we bleed, etc?

This post might get deleted (or even removed by myself) so read it when u can...
*** removed by me :) *** what about bleeding gums or bleeding toes... would u like to go into so much detail about that??? My guess, not really!
And this also applies on why it should be a private thing, or a pro-choice thing for that matter. Again, I think it's a very good thing that our women don't advertise their periods... it's our culture, and it's best if things remain that way. But, if i do get to know about it, I wouldn't freak out, wink at the girl or even behave any different... may be care about the person a little more, but nothing extra special.
My four cents. :)

exactly. i have said the same thing in one of my previous posts. the reason i started this thread and asked this question is because i saw some guys freaking out when they found out about it. some even made fun of girls. like i said before, it's totally NATURAL. girls have no control over it. my female friends share it with me and i don't freak out. but what i do is that i don't fight with them during those days (i get angry a lot) and if they are about to do something heavy, i tell them to sit and i do it for them. again, not to make them realize that oh you are having your periods, but more like to show my care. jiss par guzar rahi hoti hai, takleef ka ehsaas ussi ko hota hai. it's very easy for guys to make fun of them but i bet you if guys had to go through it, they'll be screaming all week. to me, making fun of girls while they are going through this condition is nonsense and it is same as if you go to guys and embarrass them by saying ooooohh you urinate everyday!!! what's new in that? nothing. that is totally natural as well. body has to clense itself. i know this is a very bad example but what i am trying to say is that people who make fun of girls after they find out that they are in their menstual cycle, are ignorants :)
an lol or just a lol
BTW Mr. you are turning violent witout any reason. Read my reply again. I didnt wink at her with this thin in my mind that she was having her periods. I was busy doing my work and all that happened without any intentions. I didnt do it intentionally. Clear up your confusion. One thing more I have a lot of respet for that lady and we are too friendly to discuss such things in open. I dont need to apply such tactics. Now would you please behave yourself? I felt offended on your remark. I am sorry but I have to register my complaint as it is my right to defend myself
I keep myself from commenting on what you have said in your second reply. Thats your business to reply the way you want to. Friends?
