I’m not here to argue over shell fish.

However, I always saw the rule of removing the woman while having her period as having interesting side effects.

Of course there is the peace it brings to a married couple when the woman’s hormones can create turmoil. Then there is the time the woman has to herself away from daily responsibilities. I imagine that every modern woman would be grateful if they had a mandatory time out once every 4 weeks.

Finally,there is the natural consequence of the man and the woman’s children of having to take over the woman’s tasks. This would make for a well rounded family.

My husband could attest to that...he just removes himself to the basement for a couple of days, LOL.

I imagine back then, it was more the other women in the household that took over her duties, not the men. They just didn’t want her around because she was unclean.

That's very shellfish of you.
