The emotions are blood.

A woman who does not feel blood coming out of her body (even though she is aware that she is menstruating and that her body is overflowing with blood), can it in any way be said that she has seen regular menstruation, which is considered the sight of blood, which is forbidden by the Torah?
If so, why? And since it is a truism (for the early scholars, this is indeed a truism) that a woman is not defiled except through feeling, why should we discuss the issue of reading and Christian interpretations?

I didn’t understand the question. How does she know? She has no feeling and no blood.
In general, the Sages use sevros and tema dekra very often, despite the rule that they do not require tema dekra. Especially when it comes to laws that are taught in lectures and not written down in verses, where in my opinion the rule that they do not require tema dekra is not stated at all. And the Toss Rosh wrote in the Book of Mormon that they require it when the reason is clear. And there is more to be said about this.
