The male menstruation cycle

Well I was under the impression that only women undergo a menstruation cycle , it was only last week , and during my exams( wonder if exams are meant for this?) that i got to know that it is men as well who are going through a menstruation cycle.

This cycle does not include any ovulation or external release of any liquids or hormones....but i am sure that there is something taking place , internally , for sure.

It seemed to me a little strange that during my "periods" ( :-o ) , there were strange mood swings taking place ..... strange.... i would be a different person than I normally am.

I could go into bouts of self-introspection and wonder about stuff related to my hormones ( :) ), for around 2 days , just wonder about the missing link of me still being single.
These exams , unfortunately were a part of that "period" ( and that could be a nice excuse for my non-performance...ahem) .
On the last exam day , one of my batch mates ultimately noticed me being in that compromising situation ( i don't know why but i am remembering one of those sanitary napkins ads on television where a girl's friend ultimately notices it.......but whatever..) , and i wonder why only the last day , when my academic battle was lost , dropped the bomb ..... ......
" dude everybody goes through the period ."
And then everything came into perspective.....what a fool was i always battling between reality and reasoning about my status in every profile i have made , a major reason to delete some....for the repetition, for the reality as i had taken for granted was not based on reality..... which being the existence of the menstruation cycle in men as well.

Most of the problems that the men of today are facing are related to the inadequacy of knowledge about the male menstruation cycle in the society........wonder when would the society awaken to the needs of the poor men.
Till then......
Amen!
