A brief, inconsequential question for the bleeders among us: why are the old-style, fat sanitary towels still sold? Does anyone actually prefer them to the slim ones?
Anyone with a third degree tear and torn stitches does, for sure. And they hold more than the thin ones (trust me on this, I tried a thin one one day after having my baba).
I'm probably still thinking of them as being as (in)effective as they were in the early nineties when I stopped using them. I hated the things. The advent of the thin ones was cause for much celebration. Anyway, I'm just grouchy on account of my corner shop being out of the thin ones and my thus having to use the thick ones for a few days. Ignore me :-)
Thankfully, they're rather over-specced for me these days, due to the wonders of the pill-induced PeriodLiteTM (i.e. regular, light and mostly cramp-and-nausea-free), but there was a day...
