J.T.	I do not think that periods are a "secret". I think that they are a personal thing that women have to go through and would rather keep them private. It's like not discussing when you use the restroom. It is a personal bodily function that you would rather keep to yourself. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Wow!guitar	I don't think there is anything "secret" about it. I work around a bunch of women and I can tell you who is and who is not on it just by the way they act literally. We've worked together in close quarters so to speak and together for so long we don't talk about it that is juvenile unless there is a problem or something. But you get to know each others personality so well you can tell. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

curious girl	i think it's just slightly embarrassing for people to know. to put it bluntly, the fact that you're bleed out of your crotch is a little akward to think about. some guys freak out about hearing about it too. they don't like to think about that stuff going on down there. it's better for them to just not know. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Xo_cutie09_xo	its a big secret cause some people are just to shy to talk about it. they think that none should know what is going on with your body. but sometimes you see how people are in big pain in class and you know its their period. it could really embarrass someone when they have to go to the nurse saying that it is because of their period, especially a man teacher!!=( Anyway, its embarrassing to say to someone about your period,especially young kids. it is way more embarrassing when you have blood going through your pants and EVERYONE sees it. taking about your period is like weird. it not like in a talk someone goes like "Hows your period" its a thing that people think it should be private.
