Earlier quoted context omitted.

Best comment of all time! We've got an option to "add a partner"... will think carefully about "adding another crazy bear". Don't want to overwhelm users with too many emails (but there is probably a nice, simple way to include it in the 1 email you're already getting). Let me noodle that...

by god, think about not sending the whole mail with all partners to every partner that gets the mail too, this could easily lead to more killings than Natural Born Killers is said to have lead to.

I like the concept a lot, but I won't sign up because of the frequency.

I don't want to think about female menstruation every day.

Once a week--that I could do. Daily? And I start to get grossed out.

The chart of a woman's mood throughout the month makes sense, but It is scientifically proven?

Hi Israel - yeah, we're going to watch unsubscribe rates and see if 1 a day is too much.. then we might have to change our name to "The Weekly Cramp". ;)

Hi Jim - thanks for the comment. What's proven is that hormones affect behavior (to a certain degree). It remains to be seen if there's such a direct link that you can write content around it to describe each day. But we're certainly doing our best! ;)

They need to add multiprocessing: I need to track a wife and two daughters. Now if you'll excuse me, I must run for my life :-)

I know how you feel. I grew up in a house with 4 older sisters. The way their moods would change was unexplainable to 10 year old me. Probably why I only date women post-menopause now...lol
