They even sell these reusable cotton pads, but I won't even go there. A woman has to draw the line somewhere.
Jeeez!!! What we women go through. I hope you guys know how lucky you are!!!
Oh, I hear ya Edgar! Can you imagine what we poor woman have to go through ever month? Then there's the evil PMS situation, but I'll spare you from going there my friend ;-)

Yup, you know what I'm saying girl ;-)
LOL Edgar. I think I started a PMS thread some time back, but I think it might be more than you can handle ;-)
I'm going to revive that thread right now. He he he...
Okay, after seeing that thread, I think this one's the better place for my question.
So what's the story with the periods, ladies? It's always such a big deal, like it's painful or something. It's just some cramps, right? Please. I've had many severely painful gastrointestinal events in my life, and I KNOW it can't be any more painful than that.
Kicky, you have no idea how painful it can be. All women are different, but let me explain how it's been for me.
For some reason, things changed after I had my son. Before I had my son my cramps were so bad for an entire day that I would curl up in the fetal position because of the severe pain and I would cry for most of the day. No joke. After I had my son the cramps aren't nearly as bad, but it's no picnic. PMS really, truly sucks too and I just dread when that time rolls around all too often every single freaking month!
Oh, and we women get gas too Kicky ;-)
Some mornings when I wake up, my toes cramp. They just kind of tighten up and I have to really strain to get them back in place.
Now that is real pain, not like this silly girl cramping stuff.
I get the toe cramps sometimes too Gus, but the girl cramping is worse I tell ya.
Toe cramps, I've been told, are worse than childbirth.

It could be a vitamin B12 deficiency.
The "menstrual cup" has been one of the couple of things to get attraction .... when I taught 'sexual paedagogics' ages back
Do you own a diva cup, cav?
Just curious.
I mean, couldn't you use them for spice containers or something?
Actually, perched in a nice steel glass, diva cups are nice holders for tea lights, to adorn a fine table for a romantic dinner. Of course, they melt and burn eventually, but that is 'dinner theatre', IMHO.
I've always considered you to be one of the more resourceful characters on this site.
Your diva cup creativity verifies that.
