Arnold Schwarzenegger offended female radio listeners when he joked about pre-menstrual stress yesterday.

The California Governor informed DJ Howard Stern that he felt the moon should be removed in order to prevent women's monthly mood swings.

Listeners were told: "If we get rid of the moon, women, whose menstrual cycles are governed by the moon, will not get PMS. They will stop bitching and whining."

One disgusted listener said: "He is appealing to the lowest common denominator."
