But what happens when it’s your fiancé, and he’s doing it in front of his family at dinner? One woman found herself in this situation and decided to put her foot down. Her fiancé, Green, started mansplaining periods to his younger sister, Pink, and their mother, Purple, at dinner. But our heroine wasn’t about to let that fly.
