The BBC reports today that women's shopping sprees may be linked to their menstrual phase: "...In the 10 days before their periods began women were more likely to go on a spending spree..."
Hmmm.
...Well, that's one way to look at it.
Another, of course, is that some would look at their spending activities as a post-ovulation flutter, feathering the nest for the arrival of their little ones.
While another would be to provide the means for some by which the inevitable PMS argument can occur and the woman of feeling can vent her fury at her hapless man.
N.B.: Three of the four women I have been involved with were not like that at all but one was!
My exasperation, though, is not with women, who I consider a separate species, altogether and therefore not to be judged by me (or anyone else). No, my frustration is with Science bothering to make a study of their shopping excesses in the first place! There has to be a better utilization for researchers, surely.
Aaaaah!
