Ew ew ew ew ew A bonanza of new links on Weird Links, including the following: Many Moons Washable Pads, as in "menstrual-blood-absorbing pads." (Marketing genius behind the company name, clearly.) Okay, okay, for millennia women have been using natural materials that they had to reuse over and over because they only harvested the flax once a year, or whatever, blah blah blah...but hello, twenty-first century here! I believe personkind has come far enough that, whenever possible, we should take advantage of not having to hand-wash menstrual blood out of our clothing and/or accessories. (I think the average woman spends quite enough time over the course of her puberty-to-menopause years washing blood out of her clothing due to early, late, or unexpectedly heavy periods anyway.) My favorite part of the Web site is that their answers to the question "Why use washable pads?" come under the headings "Earth Friendly," "Body Friendly," and "For Women." Ummm...aren't menstrual-blood-absorbing products always for women? (Intended for women, anyway; if there are men who use them for any reason, I don't want to know about it.) My second-favorite part is that, should you choose to purchase these washable pads, you can get them in leopard print. (You have to scroll down the page a bit.) I, however, will continue to get my leopard-print-undergarment-wearing fix from Frederick's of Hollywood, and my menstrual-blood-absorbing products from o.b. [ at 9:35 PM • by Abby • permalink • ] |
