Of thongs and menstruation

[liveonearth]

(New product discovery)

I have a few thongs. At my school it's uncool to wear a thong. At least two lesbian professors speak openly about how a thong is a highway from the anus to the vagina. I think the European fondness for the thong has to do in part with the availability of bidets. If you can wash your ass properly after a #2, the highway has no traffic. I mostly use my thongs for yoga class because there's no elastic under your ass, so there's nothing to ride up when you move. I also sometimes wear one with sleek pants so there are no lines other than my own.

I just discovered that there are tiny menstrual pads that fit a thong. I never would have thought of it, but I accidentally purchased of box of them. I didn't read the box or look at the picture very carefully. But being a novelty seeker, I tried them. Now I'm on the rag and using these tiny pads with a tampon. And it's working! The little pads protect when the tampon is maxed. It's a good system. I like this better than those clammy full sized pads with "wings". My butt likes it better.

Unlike my girlfriend's teenager I think it's very interesting to accumulate knowledge that you aren't going to be able to gain by personal experience. Not that I will ever be able to put it to personal use.

=-] It takes a bold man to go some places.

Forewarned...

Wouldn't you like to know what's really going on with the other half of the population? I think women tend to be much more forthcoming with that sort of thing than men though. Or at least I have never heard men discuss anything of this sort. And what I learn I generally keep to myself.

Most men DON'T discuss anything this private with ANYBODY but some do. Some discuss such matters with the women who are close to them...perhaps more than with other men. I don't know but it looks that way.

[geordie.livejournal.com]

Probably. I have told women more than I would tell men.

Do you have anything in common with your girlfriend's teenager?

That's an interesting question. She like science fiction but tends to the manga end. She is actually interested in a lot of the same sort of places, when she isn't butting heads with her mother we get along OK. But I'm not going to favor her over her mother in any conflict, that won't work out well in the long term. Can't work out. Mostly right now all she is interested in is her boyfriend and I was very kind in not turning over some logs to the school and/or the police... so I don't like him.

Sounds like about all you have in common is her mother.

It really isn't that simple. I don't cause the same reactions in her, but I also don't get the time with her. Especially now. On the few occasions when we have had time to spend it has gone well. But if I had to choose between them I couldn't and wouldn't go for the thoughtless 18 year old. I get on better with adults.
