Diva Cups - No More Pads or Tampons
 

Its a weird thread to have on GFY...
But a few of you are chicks.. and a lot of you are guys who are married or in serious relationships..

But I have just started cupping... and have no more gross pads or tampons in the bathroom... and it's saving money...
http://www.divacup.com/ is the site... and there are other brands.. but supposedly the divacup is best.. with the lunacaup a close second.

But it's cheaper on amazon..
size 1 for women who haven't had babies:

size 2 for women who have had babies:

/end my handy dandy chick spam..

Seriously though.. it could make a few of your lives easier... especially if you hate all the tampon or pad wrappers in the bathroom... or having to buy them for your chick..

1. It clearly states that if your over 30 you are now just more loose - lol.
2. Re-usable, oh hell na. Rather see tampon or pad wrappers than some cups waiting to be cleaned or just chilling out near the dishes.

It comes with a special wash... she can wash it in the bathroom when you're not around ;)

You don't see her yanking the tampon string out, do you? lol you won't see her cleaning it either.

too much info

Eh.
not if it helps someone...

I know like with webcam girls or something... they could have this in during a whole shift or show.... and not have to worry about tampon strings or anything...
Or if your girl is into sports with you..
or if you do a lot of hiking/camping...

um, they all mention length but they don't mention width... how wide are they?

EDIT: Argh, the shame, nvm *leaves quietly*

I'm 25. Never had children... and never been known to fuck a mandingo ... haha ;)
And I really had to relax to put in the size 1... but now that it's in.. I can't feel it...


It says over 30.. or if you've had kids.. to go for the size 2 though...

what if it spills?

Supposedly..
it can hold an ENTIRE period in the one cup.. That we don't bleed as much as we think we do...

I've never read of anyone with normal, non hormonal triggered periods overflowing...

but change it every 12 hours... You're not going to bleed this many ounces in 12 hours.

so it collects your scrumptious stuff?

years ago this was around called ultrafem

:error

If you mean blood, yeah..

but it still also lets the vaginal walls get wet too.. so it doesn't dry you up...

cool. i'm on their site now....looking for the "how to" section lol

When it got here.. I was like, "Shit how is that going to open back up in there?"

But it does. and removing it isn't hard or gross either... so far..

I've read that some women have two.. so when they're out in public and need to change it.. they don't have to go to the sink in front of people to wash... or they use baby wipes...

Found sizes... I think I'll pass :Oh crap

It's silicone... so it's really kinda squishy... but yeah. it's a little scary.

I knew a girl who used them. She seemed to like them. I think she said you could even have sex while wearing one...though i don't see how thats possible.

I'm sick minded:upsidedow

i have always had fucked up periods. lately i get some variation of one every week or two. so they've been light enough where i don't have to wear anything. but for the heavy stuff, this would come in handy.

Well hubby wears anabolic steroids for hormone therapy.. and the other morning I woke up with his patch on me .. It came off him.... so my bleeding should be fucked up for like the next month or so.. because I already have PCOS and irregular periods and stuff...


This would also help.. for if you were doing a cam show and THOUGHT it might come.. to avoid embarassing moment or whatever...

oh geez. yeah i deal with all that stuff too.

how long is the "stem?"

It's less than a half inch ... some of the women cut it off even more...

how far up inside does it go?

That'll be $2.99/min to answer that question ;)



















joking.
About midway.

far too much information...

i imagine the girls from sex and the city holding their cups together and comparing who collected the most blood over the last 12 hours

Well now you've completely ruined it for me too. ew.

seriously - i rather go and buy a bulk pack of tampons for my GF. collecting menstrual blood in a cup is the last idea i would get. i wonder what the person who invented it was thinking

Nice post! Not to be gross or anything but if you are working (or just a crazy horny girl) and are getting pounded hard either by a real cock our a dildo the chances that the cup is going to "TIP" are pretty high and let me tell you from experience it ain't a pretty sight. Use the tried and true make-up sponge or if your worried about that here are sponges made specifically for that purpose. They do not just "collect" they absorb! No tipping if you like to get realllllllly crazy! No mess!

Sorry fellas. Pretend you never saw this post! :)

it's way more clean and hygienic. you're just thinking of it backasswards. it's much better and cleaner than tampons, for both your bathroom and your girl's vag.

my gf has been using one now for about a year and a half.

1. no nasty tampons or pads EVER
2. i never see anything related to her period - so it's better in that aspect to you pansy ass dudes
3. it's cleaner and safer for her vag

tampons and sponges can leave fibers behind that can give her TSS... less chance of toxic shock with the silicone cups too..

LESS cramps too.. less moodyness.. lol

Awesome, now it'll be much easier to collect paint for my menstrual art..

it says you should remove it before intercourse.

Ohh thanks for the link. These are perfect for when you are on a shoot or doing a webcam show and it is during your period.

that would take some serious getting used to

Hmmm well, I always use regular sponges since that's what they generally have on set for us girls. Some of the girls like to use INSTEADS which is the same thing as DIVA cups but not reusable and they advertise that they can be used during intercourse. I really don't see the difference between the two and have had "tippage" hehe yuck!

The regular sponges have always worked like a dream for me that I use them when I am not working too. However here is a quote from the site about using them during intercourse.

"4. For your Comfort and Convenience
Sponge tampons are very comfortable, soft and textured like the vaginal wall. Many women report they do not even feel their sponge. Sponges are naturally very absorbent, and some women even use them during intercourse."

Again sorry fellas. Close your eyes! :)

ya know at first yes, but I swear Kristen you then wonder why you ever used tampons in the first place! :)

I like playing with a girl's tampon..

The cup has no fun string to tug on.

yeah, and you can recycle tampons as teabags :upsidedow


(no complaints please, i didn't start this)

I prefer women to stay barefoot and pregnant that keeps their filth blood from smearing all over laundry and the house :thumbsup

All I can say is.... Ewwwwwwwwww

Maybe you can stick one up your ass for when you get diarrhea, and avoid running thru the house to get to the bathroom in time.

LOL! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
