A period, notwithstanding what it actually means, is also a huge reason for men blaming women. As if the cramps, the pain, the hormonal changes, the migraines, the bloating wasn't enough, women have to put up with men taking cheap shots at their periods!

Women are generally more emotional than men and men know this for a fact. But that doesn't stop them from taking digs at each and every girl and asking if it's that time of the month again, even if you're not.

Weird Indian Myths About Periods

Premenstrual syndrome or PMS, as it's known all over, is a very real thing. The feeling of stress, the depression, the irritability, though shortlived, all exist and is very unpleasant. You are perhaps experiencing varied emotions in a short span of time, ranging from sadness to watching reruns of 'How I Met Your Mother' in a couple of blankets digging into the big bowl of chocolate ice cream.

Choosing to look at in a lighter manner, it is surprising with what girls can get away with just by blaming their periods. Well, everyone seems to be blaming it. So, why shouldn't the rightful owner get some benefits out of it?

Read on and find out the things girls can blame on their periods.

Your clumsiness
Ungraceful at work? Handled things a little awkwardly? Blame it on you period! It really helps in getting away with things. Don't resort to it every day, as you'll then be the butt of everyday period jokes. Or who knows, you might even have a showdown with your boss.

Late to work
If you're one of those latecomers who barely makes it to office on time, once in a while, blame your period for it. Most guys are uncomfortable speaking about it. They won't ask you the details. But make sure you make it seem genuine by not giving the same reason every 10 days.

Why you gorge on ice creams
Digging into ice creams doesn't particularly need any reason. But still if the other person thinks that it's irrational, just blame your PMS! It's that simple. They'll back-off and will probably ask you what else you need on your platter.

The sad face
Girls are emotional creatures. A lot of things bother them. It could be due to the sex last night or just that they hate their boss's face! Anybody trying to be a smart ass can be blown off by just saying 'Can't a girl just be sad when she's on her period?' And that will be the end of it!

The emotional outbursts
Girls wear emotions just like their nail colours, but instead of changing it on a daily or weekly basis, girl's emotions change within seconds. So the illogical decision you took or the ridiculous tantrum you threw can all be blamed on your beloved PMS.

Irrational feelings to turn into the next Hitler
Shouted at someone higher than you in the food chain? Don't regret it. Just explain your period symptoms and they will catch the flow. Don't make it too obvious but make sure they know that your PMS is to blame.
