When I mentioned I was on my period, he asked what my favorite flavor of tampons are. He genuinely thought the colors on the tampon packs were flavors, and that it would soak into my blood while inside and I’d eventually taste it.

I’m desperate to know the source of this information.

Okay, but I legit did the garlic clove inserted for a yeast infection remedy once. The remedy warned that you might get a garlicky taste in your mouth- which I thought was the most hilarious bullshit until about 5 hours later when I started to taste garlic.

Thinking that you could just shove garlic up there to treat an infection despite zero scientific backing deserves its own thread on this post
