NHGR - Explain to me like I'm 6. Also possible TMI

OMG. I am crying. CRYING.

[emjacobs]

Now if they brought in a paycheck on a bi-weekly cycle like I do I would accept that with no problem. Hell I'd even open a bank account "Em's Pooper" for it to be deposited into.

I've popped out 2 kids in 2 years and have yet to poop out a tampon.
Kegals are a woman's best friend

[housegeek]

Ahahaha Em, that's awesomely funny.

I can't handle Kegals. It's like 10 minutes of reverse peeing and pooping every day.

I'm also dying at the idea of not pooping all weekend. Don't you miss it? A giant dump is the second greatest feeling ever!

I was at work once and one of the managers made a joke (this was back when i was young and a waitress) that a gay guy at the bar needed a tampon. Yes, poor taste but supposedly he thought that anal sex can make things loose and poo falls out. Therefore tampon. True? I dont think so. But maybe this joke is in that category?

[emjacobs]

I used to not realize it, but it doesn't bother me. I know that come Monday morning my poop will be back. I think it comes from growing up showing horses, you DO NOT want to poop in a porta potty on a July afternoon after 500 other people have occupied the same porta potty. I would pee in the horse trailer or in the stall if we were staying over night.

PUT THE TAMPON IN.
EAT SOME FIBER.

I don't have my period either. I don't even get my period on depo.

TRY IT! YOU'LL LIKE IT!

We must uncover the truth.

LOL You're a woman on a mission.

I just realized I haven't ever seen any DIY tampon projects on Pinterest.

What do you know.

I guess I do have stuff to do this weekend after all! Tampon wreath, anyone?

They do fluff up nicely.

And funnily enough, DH and I were discussing alternative tampon uses yesterday and he mentioned this: artofmanliness.com/2012/06/05/survival-tampon/

I think the concern is that since the muscles surrounding the tampon generally conract along with the muscles used while pooping the tampon will get pushed out while dropping their deuce.

Or something.

This was going to be my guess too.

No idea. Until I saw that you had friends that were loving it, I figured it was a "dood that has no idea how the female body works" kind of things.

Case in point... a "joke" from a male co-worker:

Male co-worker: Do you know why it's so hard for a woman to pee in the morning?
Me:
Male co-worker: Do you know why it's so hard for a woman to pee in the morning?
Me: It's not that I didn't hear you... I don't get it. It's not difficult to pee in the morning. Unless you have a UTI.
Male co-worker: (frustruated with me, turns to another male co-worker) Do you know why it's so hard for a woman to pee in the morning?
2nd male co-worker: (giggling) No, why?
Original male co-worker: (barely able to contain his own pre-punchline laughter) Have you ever tried to peel apart a grilled cheese sandwich?
Me:

For some reason, this guy thinks that he's god's gift to women. I've known the douche since kindergarten, so I'm somewhat accustomed to his antics, but the other women in the office were disgusted.

I'd go directly to HR with that gem. Can we say 'hostile work environment'?

[sratsey]

I have no idea what that's about, but this thread really made me laugh on a day I needed to laugh, so Thanks for that.

[pamela]

I know this thread has gone an entirely different direction at this point, but the angle of each woman is different and some press on the rectum more than others. I have had tampons shift after pooping, especially if I'm using a less than optimal brand for me (some just fit better than others).

Well I picked an interesting day to lurk over here! And I never would have known either...
