I know it's hormones and all that nonsense, but I also think some external factors or some ancient latent memories contribute to it.
So this is my list of irritants that need not occur immediately before a mood swing:
1. Men can walk around in shorts showing hairy legs and be called sexy - not so for women. Do you even know how painful waxing is?
2. Not only do we have to wax, we have to get manicured, pedicured, plucked like chicken and then put bizarre colours on our nails, lips and eyelids, apply moisturisers, body butter/lotions, expensive perfumes, lip balms; use two types of brushes, dragon toothed clips and leave-on conditioners on our hair... and still appear natural.
3. We need to carry large expensive bags to carry all the above products.
4. We can never find our keys in the afore-mentioned bag.
5. We have to wear really constricting undergarments or be branded feminists (the bra burning variety)
6. These undergarments cost the sun and the moon and then you see some bai-types wearing a similar variety (strap peeping out of the blouse) obviously bought from some roadside vendor for a fraction of the price.
7. Jewellery - Earrings, necklaces, bangles, bracelets, anklets, armlets, chicklets (got you) - that stuff is heavy man! Men can get married in a lungi and no one would notice.
8. If a man gains weight after marriage, they say- "Oh that's the wife's love showing". If a woman gains weight she is asked - "Any good news?" - extremely embarrassing and NOT happening.
9. Guys can make do with one pair of shoes, we need several to match our outfits - and heels may be sexy, but really really uncomfortable.
10. Last but not the least - we can NEVER stand and pee at the nearest lamp-post.

Point # 10 - why I envy men!
And dogs too for the same reason - lift leg, aim jet, walk off as if nothing ever happened. If they could I'm sure dogs would also whistle when they walk away from the scene of the grime... er... crime.
well this comes as news to me that girls want to pee at lamp posts. so now we know that when u see guys doing that and say eww or something like that its just jealousy
:))))))))))) Hilarious !
Here's a corollary to points 2 & 7 - "And thus, the time required to 'get ready' is completely justified. Don't EVER complain that women 'take forever to get ready' !"
@Chrys- Ewwwwwww
@Wanderer- I agree. And if anyone dares complain we will have one of those mood swings :)
I've never ever peed on lamposts...on everything else.. yes. electricity and urine maynot be the best of friends.
That reminds me of a program I saw on TV where they were testing if the urine stream is continuous enough for someone to get an electric shock while peeing on an electrified post.... apparently not.
well, it is probably true, but for any data set, there are always outlyers. I wouldnt want to be one in this case. If i need a "family planning operation" I'd visit a registered practitioners, these do it yourself things should be limited to household things like bookshelves and so on.
Fertility is over-rated anyway. One billion people to testify to that.
