Feeling Man-strual 
PHARMACY | RIGHT | JUNE 24, 2012 
(I am working the prescription counter when a big, burly 6-foot or so tall man comes to the counter. Note: I am a female.) 
 
Me: “Hello, how can I help you?” 
 
Customer: “Um, I think…” *trails off* 
 
Me: “I’m sorry, sir…could you say that again?” 
 
Customer: *leans in close* “I think I got my first period.” 
 
Me: *speechless* 
 
Customer: “I’m bleeding down there, and I’m really hurting in my stomach.” 
 
Me: “Sir, men don’t get those. You need to go to the hospital.” 
 
Customer: “I knew you girls would be insensitive! I’m leaving!” 
 
(I didn’t see him again. I still hope he got to a hospital!)
