can girls stop judging other girls for not using tampons

it’s literally annoying sometimes when i’m talking to someone and we talkin about girl problems and they’re like OMG HOW CAN YOU WEAR THAT DIAPER JUST TRY TAMPONS like some people can’t physically wear tampons so frick off pls

and for some people tampons will make cramps worse

And some of us don’t want a wad of cotton shoved up our vagina.

So, for those of you who are worried about tampons because of cramps, materials, or leaking, I recommend checking out Diva Cup.

I had super bad cramps using tampons, and negligible ones with the Diva Cup, and used to have heavy periods prior to getting on the pill in November, and had no problem with leaking at all.

Now, that being said, y’all know your bodies, and I don’t. Do what makes you comfortable, and know that you have my full support.

All I ask is that you check Diva Cup (or other menstrual cups) out so you have a good idea of other options, if you didn’t already.

Oh, and for those of you who find tampons super uncomfortable because of them drying you out without leaving any non-menstrual moisture in your vagina, the Diva Cup still allows for non-menstrual moisture to keep things comfy.

And I’m totally serious about the not leaking thing. I worked in the forest from 8am to 5pm almost every day in Fall Camp, and had zero issues with leaking, despite still having heavy periods at that time.
