I think your way of using them--as a backup to a pad or tampon--is reasonable and a good idea for a teen with an unpredictable flow. But it is absolutely disgusting to think that people use these as pad/tampon replacements. Gross.

Why is it any more disgusting than a pad? It functions about the same way, by absorbing blood. Why is one worse than the other?

It's important to note the underpants need to be rinsed by hand immediately after wearing. You can wait to wash them. They have to line dry, but dry quickly. If washed at night they are usually dry in time for school the next morning.

And your daughter smells. Congrats on letting your daughter be the stinky kid at school.

I imagine it's totally NOT like sitting in a wet bathing suit. We've got pretty advanced in many areas, you know. Why not clothing for women? Maybe it works like diapers, which can hold a lot of liquid inside while the part by the skin still doesn't feel really wet.

You're being way too open minded about this. If you'd only work a little harder, you could properly shame the women of dcum for not using the "approved" menstrual products. You didn't even mention how much women stink while they bleed from their whatevers.

Definately the THINX marketing crew. Old blood stinks. You can deny it till your blue in the face, but it does. Walking arounf in und you bled erwear that you've bleed into all day is the same as walking around in a pad that you bled in all day. You stink.
The wearer not smelling it means little, you are the last to know you smell.
Same idea as the people who claim not to need deroderant and only shower once a week, but don't smell. They smell. Everyone around them smells their funk.
If you;re cool with being funky go for it, but don't pretend like you don't stink or are some how a SJW and feminist because you wear enstrual panties.

A) I"m the OP, and I live in VA and have nothing to do with the company. I'm a 40'ish mom and working professional.
B) As I tell my DD, if you have not used/tasted/tried something, you don't get to have an opinion on it.

It is hysterical to read her posts. Ignorant and proud of it! What a riot.

Change your pad and take a shower! Nasty!

yeah, but an 8-10 hour work day doesn't make blood "old" You could try it and see. (And no, I'm not on the marketing team. I have not tried them yet. But I'm going to get one for me and one for my daughter, to try out. I think industry has not been innovative enough at all when it comes to birth control or menstruation-related developments. Because sexism. So I am going to support whatever new innovations come along, and hope for the best.

Are you the same person who insists that anyone who does g shower after a poop smells? Or are there several olofactory crazies out there?
