I was in a Girl Scout store, trying on clothes. Later that evening Mom announced it at dinner. It was awkward.

THIS IS INSPIRED BY MY MYSPACE BULLETIN but this thread will fail because there are so few girls

i was in 7th grade. i thought i shit my panties so i just went home and threw them away and when it happened again the next day i thought something was wrong with me. i showed my mom and she asked me why i didn't tell her sooner. no one made a big deal.

having an older sister and a mom i remember being tucked in one night when i was like 8 years old and i asked "mommy when am i gonna get to use the tampax?" she laughed at me really hard and told everyone.

also, one time i opened my sisters tampon out of curiousity and when my mom found the wrapper she got scared that i had put it inside of me and yelled at me not to do it.

fun fact: i tried tampons at least 30 times before i got the hang of it.

I woke up one morning in 8th grade and I had bled in my pajamas and I went in my mom's room and was like "I think I got my period" and she was so excited.

I arrived about 30 seconds after the bell rang, and the teacher gave me detention. She then proceeded to teach us grammar for about 45 minutes, and, when the next bell rang, I moved on to SECOND period.

I take pills now so I can keep my precious blood.

The blood stays in the pad, that's the point of the pad. It's not made out of Gore-Tex.

I understand now. This woman and her sister are into arts and crafts. Maybe she was just proud of herself. I'm going to write her an e-mail about it now.

ps. i don't understand how anyone can possibly have tampon difficulties.

—lexieho

Sometimes when I go on long runs or shoot hoop my taint and crack sweat so much it's like I have a period. Sisters? Someone needs to come up with a product for this male problem. I can see the commercial--two guys walking off the court, one sez to the other "do you ever get that not so fresh feeling, you know, down there?"

I don't even remember anymore, other than it seemed important to my mom that I remember the date in case I was ever asked by a doctor. Unfortunately I've now forgotten it; either November or December of '97.

My mom didn't want me to use tampons at first, so I used pads for a long time. It was awesome switching to tampons. I don't believe people who say they can't use them (my mom is one of these people). It's like the "multi-orgasmic women don't believe in women who don't have orgasms" or whatever thing.

I wish I could just make it stop. I never want kids, anyway.

I "can" use tampons, it just never feels right, like something is nudging my cervix.

"I am the worst when it comes to period stains. That is why I never move because my mattress is so so so so stained that whenever I change the sheets it just looks like a murder scene. I'm serious. Somebody should put crime scene 'do not cross' tape up. It's awful!

Every month my body completely purges everything it has been holding onto. My periods are heavy, long, arduous - old furniture and books and records come out. Gold coins and anchors and treasures and lace and shoes. It's like a big clearance sale. Everything must go! That is just the way that I am built. I am just puzzled at the idea of a pantyliner or a regular tampon. I need to stuff half an emergency room in there every 28 days or I am looking at dying everything I own black. (Here's a hot tip - if you stain something with your own blood, spit on the stain - your saliva has enzymes that will break it down.unfortunately it has to be your blood and your saliva - you can't do it for anyone else)."

when i was in 5th grade the chick siting next to me had her first period in/during class... it was freaky! all the guys laughed and all the girls got mad at us for laughing

oh i almost forgot... she was wearing a skirt and the dmn blood sat on the damn chair for like 1 hr. the techer had run out after her and like she didnt coem back for about 45 min. during tat time, us guys kept daring each other to "look" at it. we would walk over there and pull out the chair and scream "AH!!!!"

si guess the teacher finally cleaned it off during recess, but the blood had soaked into the wooden chair and forever and ever now, that chiar has a peculiar red stain that im sure no one knows what happened.... poor 5th grader who is unlcky enuff to get that chair for the year... gross
