This kind of ties in with JD's thread.
Can a person really be sanctified as she (or he) snaps and snarls at people? At least in the case of PMS one can say there is a physical cause of extreme stress and short temperedness, etc.
But where does God draw the line between an "oopsie", and backsliding?

I can't personally accept it as out of her control, a medical issue that gives her an excuse, get out of jail free card.
I don't pretend to know what it's like to have PMS, but I do know God and I know His Spirit is available to deliver and empower anyone, even a woman suffering from PMS, to still maintain her integrity and be a blessing and not a curse, to her fellows.

Re: Does grace cover PMS?
Is PMS real? Or does it only exist in the western world?

No, I'm not perfect, just forgiven,
Haven't yet arrived, but I'm on my way,
Since Jesus found me and forgave me,
Can't say I'm perfect, but I can say I'm saved.

I live in a household of women.
Teenagers who are pretty cheerful, and my wife doesn't demonstrate any odd behavior when it was that time of the month. Never met any women out or in the church who had any sort of odd behavior due to their cycle. I have met many men who have exhibited behavior like they were having a period.

Men have a cycle every 3 months.
