[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love this new generation. I love that they aren't saddled with the weight of all the sexist expectations that I grew up with.

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. [/quote]

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

[b]If[/b] I am raising a daughter of course it affects me. I am responsible for teaching her how to navigate the world. [/quote]
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?[/quote]

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.[/quote]
