        So? You can still use tampons while swimming. What is her point? There is no "taboo"--people just don't want vagina blood on shit.

        Right?! People say, "Periods are natural"--well so is breast feeding, but a little discretion is always welcome.

        Are the Times going to expose the computer electronic voting machine fraud? That's why the GOP is so arrogant! They own the company

        がさつなアメリカ女がタンポン好きというのは当然だろう 現在の日本製生理用品は理想に近いらしいので日本女がタンポンを好まないのも解る だが中国でタンポンが普及してないというのは謎だな
