[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you get the cup out cleanly?[/quote]

You empty it more often.  But if you have a heavy period or it's your heavier days, you just accept that it's a messy process.  Women who [b]must empty it in public places (like work) [/b]may not enjoy it during the day but may like it more overnight or on the weekends.  [/quote]
It should be illegal to empty it in public places. It's a blood bath. And rinsing it in a communal sink? That is NOT safe, it's a huge public safety hazard not to mention gross. Just don't.[/quote]

Unless you are eating out of communal sinks this isn't a public safety hazard.  As a cup wearer I just wipe it in the stall and reinsert.  It isn't that hard, can be messy but you don't need to rinse it.[/quote]

This is unhygenic. When you enter a public bathroom, I assume you are using your fingers to close/lock the door. "Wiping" it and reinserting it without sanitizing your hands is an invitation to have whatever you picked up on your fingers in that stall, to start growing inside you.[/quote]

Ok, I know this is going to sound crazy but if it is the rare occasion where you have to empty your cup in public then you prepare for that.  It isn't that hard. We are women and we can multitask!  And if you think I touch ANYTHING in a public restroom you would be wrong.  I always have hand sanitizer on me because of fecal matter because people are disgusting.[/quote]

I'm serious - please explain exactly how this works. How do you "prepare for that" when you are in a public restroom?  See the PP for her take ... waddling in and out of the stall?  Do you squat over the seat, splashing blood when you remove it? And when exactly do you use the hand sanitizer, before you reinsert the cup?  Isn't hand sanitizer made of ALCOHOL?[/quote]

What do you mean?  Do you carry a tampon to the public restroom?  Preparing for that?  Do you squat over the toilet splashing blood when you remove a tampon?  Have you heard of OB tampons that have been around for decades?  Considering the number of women using cups have you seen a blood bath in the restroom or women washing their cups in them?  [/quote]

I'm a different poster, but couldn't use OB. I tried and they didn't absorb enough and I couldn't shove them up high enough to be comfortable. If I sneezed or coughed they'd shoot out. On my heavy days I'm changing a super tampon every two hours round the clock. And yes blood splashes into the toilet when I take the tampons out during those 48 hours. [/quote]
