So much for your all-white room & wardrobe, honey.

Here's an assortment of tampons and some Midol, honey.

You poor kid, you have 25+++ years of carrying around your supplies and meds everywhere you go. Let's get you on that pill that makes you only have your period 4 times a year.

And, let's not forget about the daily showers for the next 40 years, plus shampoo. And every morning antiperspirant.

You poor kid. The good life is over.

No, no, no. That "pill" gives them carte blanche to become a whore and have sex with every boy and their father! Shame on you for condoning that type of behavior!

[my mother actually said part of that paragraph up there, when asked if she'd put me on birth control.]

But really, your post is what should really be taught about "that special time." Yeah, it's "special", all right. It'll be on your mind forever!!!!

I'm old enough to remember my mother using the belted ones. And I remember how some newer pads had a blue solid plastic strip along the bottom, and how Always with Dri-weave was a great innovation. Anybody else recall Rely, the marshmallow-y ones that gave you Toxic Shock Syndrome? Good times.

Holy crap, a Modess ad that actually talks about the product!

No virginal subtext here!
