Some people might not feel comfortable using one.

Well can't they learn? It's not that hard, especially if you practice. :) But I guess it is a good point, especially for more younger people. :)

A better way to say this would be "Having your period when you want to swim sucks" or "It sucks when you're on your period and you want to swim."

Tampons are not scary or uncomfortable. stick one up and you're good for 8 hours of anything.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

ha funny because that's THE worst thing to do. every heard of TSO? you're not supposed to keep them in for 8 hours, have fun dying ;)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Actually, you CAN keep them in for up to 8 hours, but that's the absolute longest you can have them in safely. :)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

also, getting TSO is like slim to none. andd theyre right^ it says on the box you can have them in for 8 hours.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

4-8 hours. They might leak if you leave it in too long.

I knew all the comments would be about tampons, and not everyone is able to use them for different reasons...ps periods stop in water

by Anonymous 14 years ago

true, they stop in water. but they don't stop when you get OUT of the water and want to lay on the beach and tan..

by Anonymous 14 years ago

haha I once had to go swimming in a pad... It wasn't that bad because I used a really thin one... but maybe not next time...

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Wow, really? So I was worried all those times for nothing...? :/

by Anonymous 14 years ago

No they don't stop in water. Sit in a bath with no tampon when you're on your period. Just because there is enough water to dilute it so you don't see it doesn't mean it's not happening.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Your period doesn't stop in water. That's like saying it stops in the shower.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

so which is it assholes???! does it or does sit not stop???!! cuz it explains why it's light as hell when i'm swimming.... ?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I'm not scared of tampons but i still don't use themn becaues i'm unconfrotable using them. That's just how some girl are

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Also, some girls do not have gapingly large vaginas for the tampon to comfortably fit in.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

That's why they make mini ones. :)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

(Anonymous) Wow. First of all, the sizes vary, second, yes, unless you have a birth defect you can fit a tampon. How do you think babies are made. And penises are way bigger than tampons.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

that's a really rude comment. and completely wrong -as in, not right. you're fucking stupid.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I think you're more rude than anonymous up there. Dumbass.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Your period kind of stops in water or like the blood goes unnoticably in the water I guess

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Using a tampon is the best option, but in reality when you go swimming your body heat usually lowers, which makes your period slow anyways.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

It sucks worse when you're at camp and then everyone knows you're on your period because otherwise you would be swimming.

Tampons are made of cotton. How in the world are they scary...?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Just the idea of sticking something inside me freaks me out. I know I'll be okay with it one day and I've tried before, but for now, I just don't feel ready. It's the same for many people.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Will the pool turn red?

by Anonymous 14 years ago

you are only suppsed to keep them in for six hours max. any lover could cause health problems. using a tamp won't break your hymen, but some young ladies do not like them. :)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I am not sticking a tampon up my vagina. Fuck that. Dicks are different, it's natural. I don't think shoving cotton up my vagina is. |:

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I agree with you.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

hahaha i guess that really does make sense :)

by Anonymous 14 years ago

And I agree...tampons are scary.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I am too scared to try a tampon...so I feel your pain!

poor guys who are reading this

tampons, my dear.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Wow this is late...I think people who complain about not being able to swim are annoying. You have to option of using a tampon (tons of women do so it shouldn't be scary) and if you don't want to use one, fine...but you have no longer have the right to complain.
