"Thankfully, my husband is the opposite of that, and so many millennial dads are following suit, like TikTok user @scuba.y.korea, who demonstrated a masterclass in being a girl dad after his daughter expressed fear she may be getting her period. "I don't feel so good," his daughter says. In true dad fashion, he first asks, "Got a poop?' She replies, "I don't know. All I know is that I haven't had my period yet.""
""Shit," Dad replies, before his daughter assures him that it's okay. "Listen, you definitely hold onto your phone ... You call me. If you need me to come and get you, I'll come and get you," he instructs before he begins searching through the car for a menstrual pad for his young daughter. "I don't think mama has any pads in here ... Let me call mama really quick," he says."
One woman never spoke to her father about her period, and her father never bought menstrual products. Her husband and many millennial dads are more hands-on. A TikTok dad reassures his daughter who feels unwell and fears starting her period. He asks practical questions, offers to pick her up, and searches the car for a menstrual pad. He calls the mother, who confirms she keeps pads in the car for emergencies. He finds the pads, thanks his wife, and praises teamwork. Viewers praised his calm, quick response and noted discomfort many felt discussing periods with their own fathers.
