OK, I think I get it now. The redness of beastie signifies the redness of 
the menstruation and also a person getting angry, swinging around a hammer 
corresponds to mood "swings", and indicates the anger. In retrospect, it 
seems like quite a reasonable choice of image. Dunno about the rubber bit, 
maybe this has something to do with contraception, in summary:

anger -> redness of beastie
menstruation -> redness of beastie
mood swings -> swinging of hammer
rubber -> something to do with contraception, or co-incidence
