Internal protection all the way. Can't go back to the diapers.

Tried the wing style too early one morning. Inadvertently had it upside down and ended up giving myself an unintentional bikini wax!

Dear Lord, please let the tag fairy be off today....

Someone tell me why the wings have SO much sticky stuff on them???? In the restroom at work I try to be quiet and descrete (sp?) but I practically need a CROW BAR to get the dang things off! And Lord help you if the two wings get stuck together....you'll rip your panties in half before THAT one comes off!

Okay...no more discussing this in public. I just had to get that off my chest!

Exactly why they are a nuisance to society! I wonder if the bigwigs at Nair know they have this much competition?

considering Uncle George has not left in 18 DAYS!!!! I am 45 now, and hoping it will stop soon, or, before I see my NEW OB-GYN next Friday! If not, I too, will get Spayed!

 

[cinmell]

I like the wings.

 

[Chattyaholic]

Love the wings, mistakenly bought some without wings awhile back and even though I used them I worried all the time about leakage. Can't stand "internal protection" and will only use those if we're on vacation and I want to go swimming. I'm going to be 46 soon and I'm soooooooooooo ready for "Mr. Monthly Visitor" to stop knocking on my door every month!!!

We teens (not on the TB but among ourselves) call it Bob.

Ewww Bob is my FIL. I'll never be able to look at him the same way. Causing so many problems on a monthly basis, lol. I prefer internal but yes sometimes you just gotta have a little extra help.
Pete's Mom-----OUCH!!

 

[snoopy]

I used to call "it" Auntie Flo, but nowdays I call it BLABBT (bloated like a big, bloaty thing).........

 

[TigH]

I like them. They seem to work ok for me. I'd rather not have to deal with ANY of that stuff at all, but I guess the alternative to that is menopause and I'm not ready for that yet!!!

 

[mommystieg]

Aunt Flo or "my little monthly visitor". Ya'll are all right about that sticky stuff---it is impossible to be discreet in the restroom at work with wings. I am not a fan either and after two kids things are too stretched out for internal protection-the dang things just kept falling out

 

[snoopy]

Ever notice Auntie Flo ALWAYS makes an appearance, regardless of whether she is due for a visit, when one is experiencing:

Impending sex

Impending travel/vacation

Impending holidays

Any kind of rite of passage where you have to look good, i.e., weddings

Wearing light-colored clothing

Of course, I live with all boys who don't understand, and don't care to understand (they are so glad they are born with the pole, not the hole ). However, one day my boys were in that bathtub, and I heard all this ruckus up there. I ran upstairs to see what they were doing, and lo and behold, they had broken into my box of OBs and were pretending they were torpedos (actually since they were about 5 and 2 at the time, I think they really thought they were torpedos!) and throwing them into the bathtub to see how fast they would sink!

 

[RUDisney]

I never liked wings, but then my friend who is a GYN introduced me to NOT taking the 4th week of pills in the pack... just start a new one ever 3 weeks... problem solved. She said there is no biological reason why you have to encourage Flo to come to town.

Ah, yes, but I'm getting older and that's probably not a good idea to take them forever. I hear there's a new procedure where they freeze your baby-growing pouch and therefore no endometrial stuff (that's a medical term ) can stick to it and have to come out. If there's not there, Flo is dead but your hormones are still intact. Yep, that's what I'm thinking about doing.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!


I'm gasping with breath laughing.

I wouldn't go near a wing if it were the last thing on earth to use. Got rid of those suckers about 3 minutes after I became a woman. And I've been trying to get rid of THAT ever since!

 

[snoopy]

They had "wings" when you became a woman, Gina?

What were you, 35 when you became a woman?

(when I became a woman, it was a belt and a diaper. I looked at my mother, said "yeah, right!" and had my cousin drive me up to the store to buy tampons)

 

[gina2000]

Ahem.....ancestors of wings

Dinosaur diapers


My mom told me that when she was a girl, she was told if you used tampons, you would no longer be a virgin.

Being the nice girl she was.....SHE IMMEDIATELY RAN OUT AND BOUGHT A BOX!!!!

And so....the saga continues.....

 

[Amy]

This thread is hilarious! Gina, my mom told me the same thing, only she said "GOOD girls don't use tampons" and never told me what a "good girl" was.

 

[grinningghost]

I agree with Snoopy. Uncle Bob always tags along on vacations. I'm already doing the math and realizing he'll probably be coming along with us to WDW again.

 

[ShuisFan584]

Wings are definitely, definitely needed when Bob comes for a visit.
