  • Take a look back at the last hundred years of menstruation products, from the homemade cloth pads of the 1910s and the sanitary belts of the 1940s, to the adhesive pads of the 1970s and the new super absorbent tampons of the 1980s.

    Everyone is talking about pads being loud in the bathroom. No one cares if you’re on your period. If I ever hear someone opening a pad in the bathroom my only thoughts are “Oh they’re on their period,” and then I get up and leave and never think about it again. 😂

    Really took women all of human history to convince men that periods actually hurt and aren’t just made up or in their head
    Edit: a lot of people are comparing periods to being kicked in the balls, but as a guy I don’t think that’s fair because ball pain doesn’t hurt for 7 days a week, 12 months a year every year and I can avoid being kicked in the balls but like...you can’t avoid period cramps? Also, again, women haven’t said being kicked in the balls doesn’t hurt like some men say periods don’t hurt...be kind to each other.

    • @lemonflavoredwhore
      @lemonflavoredwhore 5 років тому +68

      @The Rodri show Sho Here are some tips for using pads:
      The worst thing ever is to try and open a pad in a public bathroom. Also maybe carrying a pad(Tampons fit in pockets easier) through a hallway. Have a bag to carry everything around in. If someone asks what it's for, tell them it's to carry around school supplies. (I'd recommend also having actual school supplies in it.) And if you need to open a pad, there are a few different options.
      1. Be shameless(as you should be) and just open the whole thing with one loud rip.
      2. Have it already mostly opened, but just closed enough to not stick to things.
      3. Use a cloth pad(I don't know where to get them though)
      4. Wait until someone else in the bathroom flushes, pees, washes/dries their hands, or makes ANY kind of noise. As soon as someone makes a noise try to open it at the same time. If the bathroom is empty, then resort back to number one.
      Sorry this is so long, just wanted to share my experience.😁
      Have a nice day!

I told the counselor and she was like "tHey wErE jUst tRYinG tO mAKE coNverSatiOn" chile... that school was awful and the next day everybody was talking about me since that school was in a small town and my grade had like 80 kids also most of the people in my grade hated me and made fun of me and talked about me behind my back
      so because of that I'm scared to talk about it to my friends most of the time and also nobody in my family has periods except for me because I have two brothers and my parents are boomers so my mom is going through menopause and I don't have anybody that I'm so comfortable with that I can talk to about that not even my closest friends.

    it was a swimming competition and my 13 year old sister got her VERY FIRST PERIOD before her race. shes panicking, shes cramping, shes bleeding and she cant think straight. my narcissistic dad said word for word: “it couldn’t be that bad, GO OUT THERE AND RACE NOW, ANAIS.” my mum tried to help but she was always as good as nothing to him.
    *my sister raced that day.*
    years go by and dad cheats on mum and now hes dirt. hes got skin cancers, has barely any money and no one cares. its been so fun watching it unravel, sounds cruel but considering what hes done to me my sisters and my mum, he totally deserves it :)
    so, lesson to all dads, brothers, boyfriends and men: listen to girls, because its actually worse than we can express. go get her a box of pads, a heat pack and a bag of chips because its the least you can do.

      I started my period in the mid 70s. At that time. Pain was considered psychosomatic. I had what I later found out was dysmenorrhea. I was told by my aunts and the doctors that I must be stressed out and just to relax. I seriously couldn't figure out why I was having so much pain. By the way when I was 18 I started on my career path of being a natural health consultant. It is now 40 years later and I know now what was causing that pain. It was the estrogen that they were injecting into the cows, the pigs and the chickens, (to make them fatter/heavier). At that time I was eating quite a lot of meat and drinking a lot of cow milk. So, I was getting too much estrogen and not enough progesterone. Later in my life, I discovered something called Chasteberry aka Vitex... an herb that actually raises your progesterone. It helps to straighten out my periods. Later than that, I discovered that by cutting out meat and dairy all together completely eliminated the period pain and the hornone problems.

The odds of a period-capable woman watching a period-related video during her period instead of the rest of the cycle is around 5/28. (Length of average period in days/number of days in average cycle.) Add in the tendency to notice things more when they apply to you (like noticing a car model after you buy that model of car), it just seems like that's when they pop up.

    Cloth pads that are made correctly, are the best method of handling one's menstrual period.
