Five-Stars, Two Thumbs Up, Absolutely Fabulous – I’m wearing it right now and I’m not even on my period – that’s how much I love the Diva Cup.
I was skeptical. I didn’t want to spend $20 in case it didn’t work.

I had to take a washcloth with me to …read more

Last year I wrote about how I wear men’s Hanes Briefs because they actually cover my ass in Her Way Sucks, I Prefer His.
I discovered accidentally, about 10 years ago, that men feel entitled to wear comfortable underwear that covers their entire ass. The whole thing.
