so, several of you have asked "what the hell is an instead cup!?" well, that tells me a)you've never been pressured to try them and b) you don't read all of my posts ;-) it's ok, i forgive you.
the instead cup is a nasty little device intended to replace tampons and pads. it's a fucking cup you stick up your vuh jay jay and it's supposed to magically "catch" all the nastiness and you can wear it for up to 12 hours and it's safer and holds more fluid than tampons. oh, and it's supposed to also aid in cleaner sex while on the rag (didn't try that). i've had so many people tell me just how wonderful they and the diva cup (a reusable cup..ewww) are and that i must try them. ok here's my take on this "wonder product"
it. sucks.
it is true that you can't feel them. as for them being more effective? nope. major leakage. disgustingly messy. it seemed to block rather than hold...not to mention it was $9 for a box of 24. do you know how many tampons i can buy for $9?!?
so, i'm back to tampons and pads, though i still want to bomb the fucktards that came up with the idea to stamp "have a happy period" on them...but i did break down and buy the ob niagra falls absorbency tampons. i never have tried ob because they don't have an applicator. well, after the instead cup, i realized that no applicator is no big deal and it's a lot less trash. woo hoo! plus, they have an aborbency beyond super which is great for biddy.
so now that y'all know all my vuh jay jay details, i'm going to take a very long hot bath, oh and wash my hair twelve times. why? becuase i just squashed a fucking fly in my hair. eww eww and oh yeah EWWWWWW

Ummm okay, a CUP to stick UP the vuh-jay-jay? Who's idea was this? Did a man invent this? It sounds suspiciously man like. That has got to make a God awful mess. Yuck....also I would like to know where you buy the Niagara Falls absorbency tampons...those sound very handy. I thought maybe it was an April Fools joke the Have a Happy Period...what is that? Who are they talking too?
I am SO GLAD I didn't buy those a couple weeks ago. I was debating - they almost reeled me in with "more absorbent", "longer lasting" & better than a tampon advertisements but then realized the things looked like a diaphragm (read: cup) and it just didn't look good to me. Never buy Instead!
I started this weekend..and thought of this cup thing..and started to gag again..
I love the instead cup...
I used Instead one time, and I can back you up -- messy! I wasn't even having heavy periods or anything, but MAJOR leakage. I wanted to be an eco-gal too, but seriously, all that laundry detergent can't be good for the world, either.
