In middle school, there was a girl in my grade that had gotten her period before the rest of us, and she complained about cramps one month. I was really thrown off by it because I didn’t know a whole lot about periods and hadn’t put much thought into it.

Sure, I’d taken a Sex Ed class, but maybe I missed a few details? Let’s be real, middle school Sex Ed isn’t exactly the best education, and I wasn’t prepared for the idea that my period could hurt.

Well, surprise surprise. That shit can hurt. But it doesn’t have to.
