This occurs when sex is had with a woman shortly after her period has ceased. This woman usually has to have a high flow of menstruation for this to happen. The male has sex with the female and it is usually done with the woman on top of the man. Nothing is different from normal sex until the woman has her orgasm. As her vaginal fluid is being thrust out of her vagina, the left over menstruation fluid, the membrane, is also shot out of her vagina. Discovery of the membrane usually does not happen until the woman dismounts the man's penis, but the woman usually knows earlier. The woman's membrane is usually spread out over the man's pubic region. The man is most likely left in disgust. It is appropriate for the man's friends to call him Membrane Man once he shares the story. Urban Dictionary

A membrane in a thin, film-like structure that acts as a barrier against fluids. Membranes come in many different types -- mainly biological and synthetic. Biological membranes are usually found inside of your body, covering organs, or anywhere else where moisture is necessary. Some examples of where biological membranes can be found are on the inner walls of your cheeks (your mouth), a thin layer on the outside of your eyes, the glans of a human penis, the inside of a vagina, and covering the outside of a penis for several species of animals that have some form of sheath.
