Are You There God? It's Me, Weezy

I'm a venereal disease, like a menstrual bleed...

-Lil Wayne, "A Milli"

Now Weezy, I know what you're thinking. "Goodness! There's blood coming out of this vagina! This poor young lady must have some sort of sexually transmitted disease!" I guess it's not that difficult of a stretch. If blood were to come out of your penis, you would probably think it was an STD or, at the very least, a urinary tract infection. Why shouldn't the same be true for a woman's vagina?

But there's no need for alarm, Dwayne. It's all quite natural. Most women undergo a monthly cycle called the menstrual cycle. At the end of the cycle, the uterus expels its blood lining along with the egg (don't worry, this isn't like a reptile egg, this one is microscopic).

Here's a video that I hope you will find to be informative:

See? It's all completely normal and has been happening since at least the 1950s.

But don't let vaginal bleeding fool you. Just because there's blood does not mean the coast is clear. Vaginal bleeding could also be caused by STDs, like chlamydia and gonorrhea. But if this was your intent in "A Milli," you should know that calling it a "menstrual bleed" was incorrect. A "menstrual bleed" only pertains to bleeding that occurs as a result of the menstruation cycle, just like it sounds.

Weezy, I hope you find this informative, and if you have any questions, don't be afraid to write.
