Welcome to TwoXChromosomes, a subverse for thoughtful content - serious or silly - related to the women and womanly things.
Voat's TwoXChromosomes is not a "safe space." Safe spaces, although they have their place, are often used to shut down conversations and to create a false sense of superiority. They enable people to remain ignorant.
This is, instead, a place for discussion and debate about all things female and female related. To shy away from debate does everyone a disservice. Therefore /v/TwoXChromosomes is a place where adults can converse in a respectable and mature manner.
Disagreeable comments should be taken care of by the voting system. Mod intervention will be light. Banning is an extreme option used only in rare circumstance.

That's right. We don't really take the time to learn about a product that we don't use. Ever.
Monstrous, isn't it?

Tampon, gets pushed into the vagina with via a plastic syringe and its removed with a string. If it is in too long you can succumb to toxic shock syndrome. If you accidentally push it in too far you will have to get it medically removed. Menstrual pads are placed in the underwear lined up with the outside of the vagina and absorbs leaking discharge. Panty liners are similar to menstrual pads but absorb much less which makes them more for light discharge. There is also a menstrual cup which is reusable after washing it which is inserted into the vagina catches menstrual blood. Unlike tampons you are a lot less likely to succumb to toxic shock as long as you keep it clean and you can wear it overnight.
