blood for christmas

Dec 25, 2004 21:51

I was thinking of buying some of these because I'd like to get a way from tampons but don't think I'm ready for something reuseable. However, when I came across this section, I changed my mind. I found the whole "now you can have 'clean' sex on your period!" thing really demeaning. Funny, I hadn't felt dirty before, should I? I've definately had Read more... )

I've used those before and they're really good if A. You're comfortable with your body because you do insert them yourself. B. Are able to change them frequently on heavy flow days. C. Are prepared to pay a bit more than tampons.

You do throw them away. They aren't reuseable. They do work well but as I said you have to deal with changing them on heavy days because they are cups and not absorbant so the cups fill and do overflow if they get too full. And it's not pretty.

hmm, do you have any suggestions for an alternative product? I don't think I want to deal with something reusable yet. I'm paranoid about germs to begin with, so I'm just not ready for all of that ;)

while there are times to watch what sex produces (copious amounts of santorum on the faux polar bear rug are bad) the menstrual thing is perfectly cool. i was in a class at lsu where they mentioned some women preferred sex at 'that time' because a, their hormones were kickin, and b, they was less dry, more slippery slidin fun to be had. it's simply a question of a towel here, a position there. grounds for immediate dismissal it can be, but everyone has their quirks. i have no problem with handcuffs but someone else might. the whole 'clean' thing is just a selling point for the product.

blood for christmas, that's just a beautiful image. red, pontsettias, forshadowing of the easter torture. beautiful.

there's dirt-y, and then there's 'dirty.' just make sure the floors are swept, the linens washed, and the safe words memorized. there is precious little wrong with the many rituals of love and pleasure.

None for me thanks. Those things creeped me out. LOL. My cousin has a couple of boxes of them, but she's afraid to try them.
