🚨 Real Man or Not? The Great Pad Debate 🚨
Our protagonist is spending the holidays with her boyfriend's family when she wakes up to her period starting. 🎉 She sends her boyfriend to buy some pads, but when his dad finds out, he laughs and says he's never touched a pack of pads in his life, claiming it doesn't concern men. 😒 Already in a bad mood, our heroine snaps back, insinuating he's not a real man if he can't buy some f***ing pads. 🤬 Dad blows up and rants about how much of a real man he is before storming off, leaving an awkward situation behind. 😐 Now, our protagonist is contemplating apologizing and leaving to make things better, but is she really in the wrong? 🤔 Let's see what the internet thinks of this situation...
