Man Refuses To Enter Women’s Bathroom During GF’s “Nightmare” Situation, Begs Her Not To Leave Him
Most people know how stressful it is to find a public restroom in time—especially during a sudden bowel movement emergency. For women, the situation is even harder during their menstrual cycle. What happens if you’re out shopping or traveling and suddenly need a sanitary pad or tampon, but don’t have one? In that moment, you hope a kind friend—or even a stranger—can help.
One woman recently found herself in this exact situation. She urgently needed a pad while out in public, but her boyfriend refused to enter the women’s restroom to help her. He was scared of being seen as a “pervert.” A female stranger stepped in to help, but the damage was done. Once she got home, she broke up with him over the phone.
Later, her best friend’s relationship advice made her question if she made the right choice. Was it too harsh to end the relationship over this one moment?

There’s still stigma around periods, for both men and women
It’s 2025, but many men still feel uncomfortable when it comes to menstrual hygiene and women’s natural body functions. A global survey done in Brazil, Indonesia, the Netherlands, and Uganda revealed that deep-rooted period taboos still exist among young men aged 16 to 25.
Shockingly, 37% of men said that women should keep their periods private, believing it’s not something to talk about openly. When asked how they feel about periods, 55% called them “dirty,” 38% said “disgusting,” and 31% described them as “embarrassing.”
But this shame isn’t only felt by men. Many women still feel awkward talking about menstruation. A 2017 survey in the UK found that 21% of women aged 16-39 felt uncomfortable discussing their period even with their partner.
However, not all men feel this way. That same UK survey showed that 50% of men would be happy to buy menstrual products for their partners—showing some progress in male support for women’s health.
Surprisingly, only 16% of women said they would feel okay asking a guy to pick up pads or tampons for them. This shows how period shame still affects women deeply.
But when it comes to helping other women, it’s a different story. A survey by ActionAid showed that most women would gladly help a stranger by giving them a tampon or sanitary pad.
“As a woman, I know how stressful it is to get your period without a pad or tampon. I’d always want to help someone in that situation,” said Mae, 29, in her interview with ActionAid.
Performing natural bodily functions in front of your partner strengthens relationships
You’ve probably heard the old saying, “Women don’t fart.” While it might sound like a joke, it comes from a bigger myth—that women aren’t supposed to have the same natural bodily functions as men. This idea puts pressure on women to always be attractive, polite, and desirable—no matter what.
Many women feel that doing things like farting, peeing, or pooping in front of their boyfriend kills the romance. A 2011 survey by a relationship advice site found that nearly 50% of women avoid doing these things if their partner is around.
Here’s what the numbers show:
- Only 17% of women felt okay burping in front of their partner.
- Just 12% were fine with farting next to their boyfriend.
- 8% said they’d pick their nose in front of their man.
- And only 4% were okay with doing a number two while he was around.
While it’s understandable that these things aren’t romantic, experts say openness can actually build emotional intimacy. According to relationship coach Michael Sartain, being comfortable enough to fart or be real in front of your partner is a sign of trust.
“You’re not holding back or pretending to be someone else. That kind of honesty is rare, and it builds a strong foundation for a healthy relationship,” Sartain told Scary Mommy. “It’s not just about bodily functions—it’s about acceptance and emotional closeness.”
So while it may seem awkward, letting your guard down with your partner can actually lead to a more genuine and lasting connection.
