IF YOU’RE SOMEONE who can have a period then you know that they are possibly the most nightmarish aspect of your life.
Like yes they’re a great reminder that you’re not pregnant but this whole thing of them lasting for days on end and the excess cramping and mood swings is not cool.
I’d much rather a system where my uterus just yells ‘PREGNANT’ or ‘NOT PREGNANT’ each month.

The side effects vary immensely and they’re all terrible.
What's really cool and fun about being someone who gets periods is all the fun things surrounding it such as hours-long optical migraines

And you just have to find a way to get through it once a month.

But having to pay for tampons and pads is bloody ridiculous.
Why aren’t tampons free it’s not like women choose to use them
— Neville Southall (@NevilleSouthall) November 20, 2017
It’s like taxing air got to have it
I’m horrified when girls are amazed that my boyfriend will buy me tampons bc apparently their boyfriends think its too “gross” and refuse to?? Like???
— Rebecca Mix (@rebeccarmix) April 6, 2018
Tbh if your boyfriend isn’t enough of an adult to buy tampons he’s not enough of an adult to date you. dump him.
But when it comes to period, you follow the golden rule. Trust Clue.
Was wondering why I felt like such a flaming heap of shit today and then I checked Clue. Always check Clue.
