Even the weirdo upset about having a pad simply sitting on a desk and getting bent out of shape about it - I'm so glad they don't have to deal with those losers!

I love that they are living for themselves and embracing their bodies and not letting people tell them they are defective or gross or dirty for perfectly natural things.


You're lumping it all into one thing and it's not. I love that girls are not hiding their pads and tampons and dont feel shamed about a perfectly natural thing. Period stains happen. They are normal. It's not normal to walk around with blood stains, though. Clean that shit up.

It's also not ok to walk around with pee stains or poop stains. All natural things.

Why does it specifically bother you that girls don't care if some old PJs have period stains? How does it affect you?


If I am raising a daughter of course it affects me. I am responsible for teaching her how to navigate the world.

So you aren't raising a daughter. You're just some old schmuck who wants to keep girls ashamed of their body. Are you even a woman or are you attempting to mansplain periods to other women?


You're tiresome. I'm a 47 year old woman who has had her period since I was 11. No one is shaming anyone for anything. You're not going to browbeat me with your laziness. I have had hundreds of stains I had to take care of. I do teach my daughter that while it's nothing to be ashamed of, OF COURSE, walking around in blood-stained clothing is not some kind of badge of honor you're so desperately trying to make it to be. It's just lazy.

Are you raising OPs kid? How does someone elses child, wearing some old PJs with period stains, affect you? Be specific.


I am. It sure why you are reducing Ops post to some old pjs with stains. OPs post was about about normalizing this. Making it normal to have blood stains on your clothes. No where does she say the stain was old, it could have been fresh blood. Nor does she say it was old pjs. But her point was about normalizing stains - not about pjs.

This is a forum where we discuss what we find normal. I never said I cared what OP does in her own home. I couldn't care less. However, in my home and my own child, I expect something different. The whole premise of OPs post is "normalizing period stains" for all of us. Do try to keep up.

Funny, you didn't say that in your post. You said
"It's not normal to walk around with blood stains, though. Clean that shit up. "

Not, "I don't allow this in my own home", not "I dont find this acceptable for my children". Stop trying to back pedal you old crow, we know youre a troll.

Ok, you be sure to tell your imaginary child that she isn't allowed to wear old stained PJs in her room! More power to you I guess.


Imaginary child? My very real child is most certainly taught better than yours.

And it is being normalized. Not by you, with your imaginary children, but by the children themselves. They don't GAF about your tired old sexist notions. And good for them.

This is such a tired trope. "I'm too dumb so continue the conversation so I'm going to call the other poster a troll."

I clarified what I meant with my follow up post. You want to keep pissing in the wind, be my guest.

It's being normalized because they have morons like you for parents who failed to teach them basic hygiene. Nothing to be proud of.

DD aware of walking around the house in stained pants with her brother and a friend there, without a care in the world. At another friend’s house (girls and moms are friends) and the daughter’s bed has stains and they just carry on like normal. These are all “normal” girls who are well liked, play sports, all the normal stuff.

When I was growing up this would be mortifying. I thought it was something you just knew to avoid and not walk around with stained pants. is this just an effect of body positivity? Anyone else noticing a difference in today’s teen girls how they view these things or are my DD and friends outliers? We are UMC in DCUMland.


Wait until you find out that some women try to normalize their daughters not shaving their legs or pits, and not showering at least once a day.

There are some lazy and gross people out there.

False, and sexist, equivalency. Go back to the 1950's, todays girls are doing fine.

Of course they do. Since you failed to teach them basic things, their bosses or mentors will pick up the mantle when they leave your house.

Stained PJs =/= bad hygiene.

Don't you know the difference? Yikes, feel bad for you and your kids.

And yet you still havent responded to your own words. Weird. Guess you can't defend your own posts, clearly why you needed to try to turn it around. Oh well. No one really cares about your opinion anyways.
