A bloody shame.

"Who needs tampons and pads?

Your knee-jerk reaction might be to say people that menstruate but actually Gen Z girlies are embracing a world without sanitary products.

The trend is called “free bleeding”, which means that you don’t wear anything to absorb the blood when you are menstruating. "

"She said that free bleeding just “hits different” and claimed the experience made periods “orgasmic.” see also Homemade tampons are a dangerous trend: gynecologists

Meanwhile, popular creator Nayda Okamoto cheekily posted a video of her dancing in a bikini and said she was “low-key” free bleeding in her bikini.

“Thank goodness it’s a dark color,” she added."

Idk why people are so squeamish about period blood. Seems very immature to me. Like when a guy will “ew” about seeing blood in a toilet. Who cares. Bleeding fluctuates and is involuntary to a degree, and I imagine blood is better out than in from a hygiene / infection perspective.

Why do women have to pay for tampons also?

The earliest records of period management suggest that women in the Stone Age (circa 30,000 BCE–3,000 BCE) had rudimentary pads made of leather and linen-wrapped moss and sand.

Even primitive women 30,000 years ago were smarter than some of todays women.

How much blood do you think women are losing during their periods R73? The average is a few tablespoons over 3-5 days. Nobody is leaving pools of blood on any place that they sit because they decide to not use a tampon. Really you could just do a quick bit of education on the process yourself it’s not that hard. Any time there are any threads on this I’m always shocked at the dearth of knowledge people generally have on this subject.

And we all know if this was a “finding cum in the shower of my gym” thread half of the guys here losing their minds about period hygiene would be saying “hot” and nobody would bat an eyelid.

On the subject, since this whole thread is motivated by video evidence of a handful of women saying they are giving up tampons, and that’s enough evidence for people like you to talk about how gross women are…let’s post a few videos of guys on twitter jerking off in the gym lockerroom and see if that elicits a reciprocal response about men. I won’t hold my breath.
