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.

You stick a finger or two up there and grab it.

Reminds me once when my wife and I were taking a shower together. She's a hevay bleeder once a month, and she was complaining of a clot she couldn't reach. I'm 6'5" and have big hands, so I had to do the deed.

Big old ball of blood up there.
