*shrug*

OK, but why not just use two lights instead of one heavy?


:shocked:

Only if the woman is loose... like had a baby or something similar...

LOL
Not real familiar with female anatomy, are you?

I am SO embarassed... i know he is joking because i have *explained* "things" to him... we have been living together for over 4 years and he knows how things work!

I'm really joking, but seriously, it is bad to leave the 'thingy' in there for too long, you can catch some sort of fatal toxic something something.

Toxic Shock Syndrome.

Again: Lack of better reading material in the head.

EDIT: Beat to it. 😛
 
and another thing, the women seem to always come up with excuses and send us to get them tampons for them... everytime.

they seem to enjoy it too.



 
the heavy absorbancy tampons were falling out of favor I thought b/c of the increased risk of a staph aureus infection, which then causes toxic shock.

Just give her one of those red shop rags for the cooch. It's similar to reusable cloth diapers.

I think that would be cheaper in the long run, plus there wouldn't be any stains, since they are already red.

Wait, I just thought of a third bonus! When they are not on duty they can be used when fixing the cars! woohoo!

I have my girl use polyols. Works great. 0% chance for yeast infection. Bacteria in the prescence of sugar alcohols can't attach themselves to the body! This is why xylitol is awesome at preventing tooth decay, and why nasal sprays with xylitol prevent sickness.

Shouldn't be a problem as long as you don't leave it on for more than 4 or 6 hours or whatever it is.

Edit: OMG, I just read that back to myself, and it sounds really, really bad. :Q
