So I was on the internet, clicking, then clicking some more, when I came across this website. It boasts a "greener" way for feminine hygiene. It seemed interesting enough, and it was making a lot of sense, until I came across this video about how to insert your mooncup®:
After seeing that novel of a video, suddenly the mooncup® doesn't seem so appealing to me as a woman. I mean--so you insert it and can wear it for up 8 hours, that doesn't suck, but taking it out and having to rinse it is the part that doesn't make sense. If you're like me, and overly think about things, then you'll know what I mean. Seeing how it "suctions" to you vaginal wall, taking it out would prove a bit messy--especially in the way stated in the video. Imagine, and excuse me for the vibrant and vivid and possibly gross picture I'm about to paint here, taking that cup out and having menstrual blood gush all over your hands, looking like you just murdered someone painfully and gruesomely...Ew. Not to mention, what about when you have to go rinse out the cup? I mean, what's going to keep you "protected" with your pants around your ankles standing at the sink? I know a lot of people have a sweet bathroom hook-up where the sink is right next to the toilet, so if you're tall enough--or stretchy enough, you can reach without having to get up. But what about those with bathrooms where somehow, someone thought it was a good idea to have the sink some distance away from the toilet? What about then? Anyway, enough about sinks and toilets and back to the mooncup®. Did I mention it looks really uncomfortable? I mean having a big, thick piece of silicone up your veejay--that isn't, you know, moving or vibrating--doesn't seem like a good time. At least to me....
Anyway, if you've ever tried the mooncup® and have any thoughts or stories to share feel free to email me: demgetsbanned@yahoo.com
And remember ladies, keep those vaginas clean, keep em' fresh, keep em' happy, and don't forget to LOVE your vagina! You only get one after all.
