These comments are lowkey just making me think women are more judgmental about periods than men are. I’m actively witnessing more women comment about their terrible experiences with other women’s judgement than I’ve ever seen or heard from a man. This is just sad, how tf are y’all gonna bully other women for something nearly all of you go through? Some low level scumbag shit right there
one time my best friend was too afraid to go ask a teacher for a pad for me cuz my period started mid shit at school during lunch and nobody around me had one i was yelling from the stall like “if anyone has a pad PLEASE” and i ended up having to text my freshman little sister and she had to come across the entire school to a bathroom she’s never even been to in the school before to bring me a tampon. SHE WAS IN CLASS TOO. that other girl is my ex best friend now too obviously
I genuinely don’t understand why growing up people always thought I was weird for using overnight pads during the day because of how heavy my flow is. But now when I get close enough to new friends and we talk about it. They also use overnight pads… Like why was I the odd one out before and now everyone I know admits they use tampons and pads at once because our flow is that bad…?
I prefer thin pads but the long ones that also stretch to ur butt. I used to use the thick ones when I was in middle school bc I for some reason felt the need to conserve my pad usage to max 2 per day. But now I prefer using thin ones and then changing them a lot bc it feels so gross to put the wet pad back on
Totally get it. I was nervous for ages before I used them. They’re actually really easy to put in because of the device to insert it. Which also helps it not feel like sticking paper up there 😂 since the thing to insert it with is normally plastic. As long as you put it far enough up that you only really see the string, you don’t really feel it. Also yes. Very nice for showers will say 😂
When I was like 13 I bled thru my super tampon and heavy pad and didn’t know what to do and this mom in the bathroom overheard and had a huge thick overnight pad that spanned across back to front and she was like “I’m sorry this is all I have” little did she know I have crazy endo so I was like NO THIS IS SO AMAZING THANK U!!!! Even if it wasn’t what I wanted I can’t IMAGINE being pressed about it unless I was in a thong or something!
