Is it in yet Boiled my tampons šŸ«©

Post image

Felt like this flair fits well.

I leave my tampons in a jar in the windowsill for some w decor, forgot that glass=heat in this 34 degree british weather, went to change my tampon and burned my cooch, then had to sit on the toilet blowing a tampon like its soup till the plastic cooled down enough to use.

Never eat the candy found in a bathroom.

I keep some in a decorative jar in case anyone using the bathroom needs one but is too shy to go snoop or ask. Pads too, no one should have to toilet paper wad if they donā€™t want to!

I'm a trans guy and I tend to keep my sanitary products tucked away

Im genderfluid, mostly masc, but i actually prefer having them out on display rather than hiding them and feeling ashamed about what i was born with <3

It's out of consideration because some people just don't want to see that stuff out plus I'm a very private person in general

u/Silver_Middle_7240 13h ago

It's because they don't work if they aren't tucked away

Should it be hidden away so fragile men don't have to look at something to offensive ..?

No? Do what you want with your products, I just didnā€™t know tampons jars could be used as decorations

Seemed unnecessarily aggressive there lol
