We're using Flo specifically, mostly for sharing stuff like "her period starts tomorrow" to the both of us, she doesn't really need a notification for that :)
I'm not sure I understand your argument. It's important enough that she has it set up to share that data to both of you, but it's so unimportant she doesn't need a notification for it?
Yes, it is useful for me as a partner to know, ideally without having to ask her, and not important for her to be notified, since without the notification she'll notice it anyways sooner or later...
I'm sorry but this is bordering on parody to me. The way she would notice it "sooner or later" is by her bleeding on her clothes and possibly even furniture. In what world is it important for you to just know about it and somehow not important for her to avoid that?
> The way she would notice it "sooner or later" is by her bleeding on her clothes and possibly even furniture.
No, many can feel it beforehand, and you notice it when you go to the bathroom before as well, as certain things change their properties slightly, it's not a "nothing" phase and then "floods out of your body".
It's borderline parody how little education there is for males when it comes to things like this.
You seem to forget that there is about a third of the day when shockingly enough a person is not conscious to feel blood leaking out of them. I mentioned staining furniture for a reason - I promise you that menstruation does not wait for you to wake up to start.
Great! Thanks for sharing your perspective, I'm sure it is the truth in your context and from your perspective, just as me telling you about my wife's perspective is true in our context, nor everyone in life experiences everything the same way, this is fine.
I appreciate that you've educated yourself about these issues, but let me assure you from decades of personal experience and conversations with other women that it is useful to be notified when your period is going to start.
More "experienced" it than anything, everyone is different of course which is why I'm not saying that everyone needs/don't need it. Thank you but no need for any assurances, my partner lives with me and shares her experience and thoughts about it freely, and I'll continue to listen to what she says she needs/doesn't need :)
