Does anyone else remember the Mooncup rap battle or did I dream it
#You're gross and weird and no one understands you#That was a staple insult in the Ruthie household for years#Along with go back to your tipi and eat up your lentils#But that didn't age quite as well#Mooncup

Here’s some of my writer/director notes about my award winning commercial, shot last year for the NAHEMI Kodak Student Commercial Awards! These slides are essentially my module hand-in documents that accompanied the ad itself.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT i just tried putting a tampon in for the first time at the ripe old age of almost-20 and it’s one of the worst things that’s ever happened to me???? it hurt so fucking much holy fuck. i took it back out almost immediately, it was so uncomfortable. why do so many women choose to do this to themselves
I've never used a tampon bc scary but I've just never really understood why that would be your first choice and why it's the most common choice. I always used pads and while they may not be the most secure, they're comfy and dont require insertion so they were always my first choice (never used anything else). lichrally why would you choose this!!! they're so horrible they need to be abolished tbh
#ask#anon#I've heard mooncups are good but idk abt actually putting anything up my cooch that shit is terrifying#plus i have cervical ectropion which is sort of similar to vaginismus and is agonisingly painful wrt penetration#so id probably just stick with pads if i still had a period

Hhhhhh something Bad has occurred. something that has never happened to me before but that I long feared.
my hand stopped working and I dropped my entire mooncup in the toilet while emptying it. now I have to fish around in the pissblood to get it back and wash it.
THAT HAS TO GO BACK INSIDE MY BODY IMMINENTLY. GROSS.
life is cruel and dark and bleak. rip me.
#red said#SORRY FOR OVERSHARING BUT CHRIST#I have been using a mooncup for like 7 years and this has never happened to me#though i have long feared it#especially when changing it in festival toilets tbh#so you know. could be worse.

Reading up on freebleeding for Reasons, and… yeah, I could never do it from a sensory perspective, but I mean sure, if your flow is light to moderate I suppose it’s manageable? But there where days when I bled through a mooncup AND a nighttime pad in less than an hour? I ruined (not just stained) a mattress with menstrual blood and I wasn’t free bleeding?
At that point, it’s just not *practical*.

Thinking about the period stuff now and just thinking that the boys who would be total champs should Reader/Yuu be on would be;
Jamil - He's not only seen it all with his own sister, but has probably had to help Kalim's sisters at some point or another too. He's dealt with the worst cramps and flows to the "I didn't even notice I was on" girlies.
Ortho - Baby boys a walking Medwiki, has probably known your cycle before your first conversation with him. Would be more fascinated than grossed out by period stuff than most boys in the school.
Rook - Like Ortho, probably knows when you're on before you even realised you were and has a box of your preferred method of dealing with it in hand by the bathroom stall at the ready. Don't ask why he's in the toilet with you or how he knew what size pussy you wear, just be glad that in an all boys school, you have at least one (1!) friend willing to carry spare tampons/towls/mooncups/whatever for you.
Cater - Poor guys got 4 sisters and has been an unwilling student in all the "joys" of menstration. He'll look out for his favourite underclassman and bask in the praise of being such a reliable senpai/big brother type. But if his sisters are nuts normally, he's gonna have to work through some instense war flashbacks before he's any good to you.
Kalim - Most likely has a lot of sisters who are at the age where their dealing with this stuff, does his best bless him to take care of them but c'mon, it's Kalim. As soon as he tries people are calling for Jamil instead. That plus the sheer mythic level of cat fighting should any of his 30+ siblings syncronize means that like Cater, might be too scared to approach you at first but he makes it on this list for sheer effort and desire to help.
Of the human students, these all make a lot of sense! I def think the idea that Ortho already knew about your cycle before even knowing your name is super funny.
Little man's got a storage unit in him that has those stickable heating pads, pads/tampons, and pain medicine. One day, at a time that you know of Ortho, but never really spoken to him, he floats up to you. You're looking at him all confused before he opens up a compartment, takes out the above-mentioned supplies, and just hands them to you. He chirps about you needing them and lets you know that he's always well-equipped if you need anything else!
You're standing there with Ace and Deuce, confused. Your period doesn't start for another week, why did he—how does he even know your cycle? (That night, you notice that you started early).
And Rook? Fucking freak of nature he is. Why does he know your exact brand and period product preferences? Cause the man, similar to Ortho, is walking up to you one day, prattling on in poetic fashion about the beauties of human biology and reproduction (fucking weirdass). He hands you a small bag with your items, all the exact ones you get from Sam, down to the exact flow size. He tells you that you should consider heading to the bathroom now. Walking off, you freeze as you feel yourself get wet. You rush to the bathroom, finding that you started your period right at that moment.
Ortho is excusable, he's a robot. Rook's on thin fucking ice and is now required to stay 6 feet away from you at all times. If he wants to give you something, he can have Epel deliver it. He wins your favor back by buying you snacks, and you let him near you again. Just stop reciting poetry about the menstrual cycle, Rook I beg—
#mochi asks#twst#twisted wonderland#jamil viper#ortho shroud#rook hunt#kalim al asim#i think vil would also be very helpful#he is excellent at making potions so i think if he liked you enough he'd make you pain/symptom relief potions

oh another Layer of discomfort to me getting my period on christmas this year:
i didn't pack any Supplies (this was my bad, i did actually know it was due on the 28th and 3 days early is not abnormal for me)
my aunt & uncle's house is way out in the countryside where nowhere is gonna be open christmas OR boxing day
my aunt is. aggressively eco-conscious. like no judgement on ppl being eco-conscious obvs but within the family there's a long-standing suspicion that she uses reusable cloths in the bathroom instead of toilet paper (we are all afraid to ask if this is the case)
so u can see my concern, based on her track record it's very possible she's like a mooncup or reusable pad user or something which is obviously totally fair (im actually a period panties gal these days so i Get It) but NOT great if you're a guest having an emergency
mercifully she did have sanitary towels. slightly to my surprise they were Always which are not one of the greener brands. no judgement obvs you get what you can get just mildly surprising
this is actually a problem not bcos of the environmental issue but bcos i had to stop using Always bcos they added scent and it turned out i was allergic
this is actually why i started using organic sanitary towels ie felt i could trust them to remain unscented
from past experience scented pads are okay for a little while but then will start to Burn and it's been long enough that i don't remember how long it takes for my skin to react so i'm there for like 2.5 days like pleasseeeee do not hurt me
it's also just been a real long time since i used 'traditional' pads (organic pads have a very different texture in my experience + i've been using panties for a while) and they're like. gross, honestly? i will spare u the details but they are somehow much grosser than what i've grown used to.
anyway i actually forgot to go change my underwear when i got home and then a few hours later was like why am i burning - OH

what I'd like to know is what serious activists are actually advocating for the indiscriminate slaughter and oppression of the current oppressive classes
like please, point to somewhere credible that isn't twitter leftist beef or a 5 likes post from a 14 year old discovering social justice for the first time, or the radfem huffing her own mooncup fumes
because if you're that fuckin gullible to be absorbed by the alt right without making any effort to be suspicious or push through the discomfort of learning you're the beneficiary of a system that hurts others, I don't think the problem was ever with the people of colour or women or queer folks you were already holding at arm's length in the first place
#but thats just me!#im jewish lmao i know what it sounds like when those fuckers spin their great replacement spiel and too many people fall for it willingly

Believe it or not, but this is what actually, honest to god happened last weekend.
We have been playing a lot with the idea of being able to have sex normally during her periods, because it really complicates matters, especially considering how rarely we have chances to see each other.
And naturally there's also the fact that in our case normal sex means oral and manual sex. due to my impotence.
So far the little experiments we've had have been very much baby steps, because the light of my life clearly fears I may be disgusted by her periods. This time, however mother nature decided to add another spin to the mix.
Her period seemed to start, days in advance, but then stopped, leaving us both clueless. Hence, she didn't put her mooncup in for the night, which I dislike anyways because it makes pleasuring her all that more difficult.
And then, during our normal lovemaking in early hours of the morning, before getting up from the bed, with her sitting on my face… this happened.
At first I was totally clueless what had taken place, or the fact how much blood was actually involved, because for some reason I didn't taste it, apparently I was too focused in eating her out.
Only after I got in front of a mirror I realized the scope of things. With my heavy morning stubble and all, I was a total mess.
We discussed it afterwards, and both felt the false real alam by mother nature was in fact a blessing. If her period had begun normally she would have just kept emptying her cup in the toilet and that would have been it.
I also find it rather adorable that later on she asked me whether everything is okay with me. I told her I couldn't be more okay. I was happy beyond words, and told her I felt another barrier when it comes to intimacy between us had just been torn down.
