[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here’s and I agree, as much as it sucks! She has her period a full seven days, about three of them on the heavier side. Aargh!![/quote]

Just to add - I didn’t use tampons until I lost my virginity between freshman and sophomore year in college. Hopefully the easier applicators will help my DD master tampons sooner.[/quote]

honestly this is silly.  It's not 1700.  A slim tampon is MAYBE 20% the size of a hard penis.   Plenty of virgins use them - like, all girls in early teens.[/quote]

Still hurts the hymen in many teens. [/quote]

Once. Get over it.[/quote]

Tweens shouldn’t be made to feel like a failure [b]if they are struggling to cram a plastic rod up their vagina. You are a horrible person.[/b]

My dd couldn’t get one in the first summer. There were lots of tear filled conversations through closed bathroom doors. The next summer, she figured it out pretty quickly. [/quote]

I think anyone who decides to "cram a plastic rod" up their own vagina is a horrible person.  It is obscene to me that, knowing the plastic crisis of our oceans, women still feel entitled to use and discard multiple "plastic rods" each month simply because they are too squeamish to touch their own bodies or risk a little blood on their hand.

Doesn't it make you feel horrible to think of those plastic applicators floating in the ocean, or washed up on beaches (I've seen tampon applicators on beaches)?  How obscenely selfish can you get?

This is what my mom told me when she gave me my first box of OB tampons (no applicator, and they are short, even in the higher absorbancies, so much easier and more comfortable to insert than the long types of tampons that come encased in plastic applicators.

I cannot believe that tampons are still sold with plastic applicators.  And you are a terrible person if you use them. [/quote]
