Guys who are weird about buying tampons

[Popeye_Card]

Airport security (or arena security) tip, Ladies: Always put a couple of tampons in your purse or carry-on bags, then get in a line with a male security bag checker. Once they espy the "supplies", they move you right on through! Works like a charm. Same for sporting events, male-bag-checker asks to check my purse/bag, I open the section which contains my "supplies", he turns red and waves me on through.

That being said, guys that have a problem buying tampons are pretty backward IMO. Good luck finding a girl who doesn't have a period.

It's not about finding girls that don't have a period. It's about not having to deal with it in such a direct fashion.

Look, I know that the girls I date take a dump. That doesn't mean that I want to see them doing it.

this thread makes me realize how much more i should have been demanding from my boyrfiends. it has never occured to me to ever ask anyone to get tampons for me. i should have been making them all get tampons for me.

I've never been asked by a girlfriend to buy them before. At the same time, I've never asked a girlfriend to pick up anything relating to personal hygene for myself either. Am I wrong in thinking that there are some things you just buy for yourself unless there's an emergency situation?

No, you have this correct 100%. Stick by your guns.

That analogy doesn't add up. The equivalent to buying tampons would be buying toilet paper.

And surely I am not the only person who's a little bashful about buying toilet paper.

That analogy doesn't add up either. I don't use tampons.

I grew up with 3 sisters and now have a wife and daughter. I'm used to dealing with things like this.

Doesn't bother me at all. If it's on the list, I'll buy it.

If I knew you in real life, I'd start discretely adding Playgirl and bodybuilding magazines to your shopping list.

I'd be more bashful about not buying toilet paper.

I've never bought tampons before so I'm not exactly the best to speak up here, but wouldn't it be just as awkward if not more so for women to buy condoms for their SO?
