I ran across an interesting link today on how/whether to write about periods (as in, women having them):

(detailed discussion of bodily fluids, as one might expect)
( Some more discussion - nothing gross or TMI, but cut if you don't particularly care for the topic )
What do you think? Have you ever mentioned it in a story yourself, or seen it done well? Would you write it? Is there a scenario you think is usually done poorly that could be done better?
