There is some confusion here. I think I can help clear things up for everybody. The word 'period' simple means: : the completion of a cycle, a series of events, or a single action : conclusion You are getting confused because of the usage of 'period' as: : a point . used to mark the end (as of a declarative sentence or an abbreviation) However, another usage of 'period' is: c : a single cyclic occurrence of menstruation So you can see; the base definition of period is at the heart of each usage. I think that because you are a male, you are less familiar with the second common usage. I hope this has been informative and helpful to anyone who has had this confusion. I want to make it clear that I am not judging anyone for having this confusion. I myself had to have this explained by my school nurse when there was a incident at my school. Twice, actually. Side: Not that kind of period.

Any time. But you might not want to us the phrase 'grammar Nazi', it is a misconception. Although German soldiers were very formal in their professional lives; when off the clock, so to speak, there was a widespread practice of having free-style rap battles. There is actually a rare recording of Hitler himself battling someone. Side: Not that kind of period.
