[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I truly do not understand the insistence on plastic applicators, or any applicators.

I just bought a box of tampons today. They have no applicators, and the majority of tampons on the shelves also had no applicators.  This is normal in my country (Western Europe).  Many, many women of all ages use tampons here with no applicators and no problems, so I can't understand why people on this thread are insisting they are necessary.  Why?  And even if you must use an applicator, why can't you use cardboard?

Good question. I bet it has to do with the puritanical nature of American culture in general. [/quote]

Well, there are many possible reasons beside that.

What about when you are out and about but there isn’t a sink with running water and soap to properly wash up after ? (Like in a porrtapotty?).  [/quote]

There are companies that sell portable menstrual cup cleaners.  This one you fill with water, then take it into the stall/toilet and you can clean and dispose of the water in the toilet.
