[WCGreen]

57. No shit.......

[SharonRB]

58. I saw that commercial during the Michigan/ Michigan State

game today and commented to my hubby what a great commerical it was. Dr. Pepper always has great commercials.

[bearfan454]

2. Mrs bearfan doesn't use them anymore since her hysterectomy

But I have bought tampons for her before. I used to buy New Freedom maxi pads for the first Mrs bearfan. It never did bother me.

[WCGreen]

5. I had a friend who absolutly refused to buy tampons....

I said, George, do you really think the woman behind the counter thinks you are gonna be using them....

[Book Lover]

9. Ha! Ha! Ha!

:rofl:

[SoCalDem]

37. My son's football coach used them for the players' nosebleeds

:eew:

[Book Lover]

39. Pretty clever

Why the eeew?

[SoCalDem]

40. That was my son's comment

:) It is clever though :) I found out, when I found them in with his gyms stuff. I asked him why he had tampons..

[Book Lover]

41. Oh!

Gotcha... Yeah, it's not exactly the kind of thing a young man would experiment with if he felt the need to investigate "girl stuff"... :-)

[WCGreen]

42. NOW you tell me.....

[Book Lover]

14. Hey now!

What was wrong with that?

[GOPisEvil]

4. I've never had an issue with that either.

I've always looked at the issue this way: At least I HAVE someone to buy them for.

[Rising Phoenix]

8. good attitude...

appreciate your goddess...

[GOPisEvil]

10. When there is a goddess to appreciate, that's what I do.

Now, though, I just appreciate myself.

Wait...that sounds wrong...well, not wrong, but not right.

Forget it. I blame the allergies.

[Rising Phoenix]

15. giggle, giggle

[WCGreen]

23. We all do......

I bet the Freeper wouldn't be caught dead....

[Rising Phoenix]

24. thats why we love you.. and not Freepers...

[bearfan454]

21. And it's better than if you don't need to buy them

Know what I mean David ?

[GOPisEvil]

22. Yeah, that's true. On a couple different levels.

:)

[Trigger Hippie]

7. Great!

Couldja get me some of the Regular Slender kotex and some of those pads with wings. Thanks, bud! :silly:

[WCGreen]

12. on the fly with the wing things....

[Book Lover]

11. Thanks, but

I use GladRags.

[In_The_Wind]

13. Are you looking for a job ...

as a very personal shopper or what ...

[WCGreen]

16. Just reacting to a Dr. Pepper commercial...

That reminded me of my friend George, mentioned in fond memory, up thread....

[In_The_Wind]

18. I see ...

thanks for the giggle but it hurts when I laugh ...

poor George ...

[BlueIris]

17. Wow, you sure are one liberated individual.

You get extra-special sensitive-man points there. All is right with the world. Phew!

[Heidi]

19. Mention of the word "tampon" opened my father's wallet automatically . . .

As in, "Dad, I need . . ." He'd give us $100 and the keys to the car rather than go to the store and buy . . . *gasp* . . . feminine hygiene products. :rofl:

[WCGreen]

20. Man if that was me....

My time of the month would be every week....

Sorry Dad, heavy flow....

[Rising Phoenix]

25. in high school I had a male gym theacher who believed

I had my period every other week, and had to rest with my feet up...friggin moran..got me out of class though

[WCGreen]

26. I had my mom write a note to the gym

teacher that I thought wresling was homosexual in nature....

This guy used wrestling as a means of sadistic torture....

Pairing off people like the strongest guy with the nerdy kid...

I didn't want any part of it...

But the look on his face when he read the note.....

Priceless....

[Heidi]

28. Well, Dad finally figured it out when I was in college

and in my "needful of beer money" phase. Mom enlightened him: "They don't menstruate every weekend, honey." :eyes: :blush:

[Sugar Smack]

32. LOL!!!!!!!!

Heidi, I freaking love you, OK? You are a jewel! :rofl:

[Ilsa]

27. But will you buy lipstick or other makeup for me?

The checker knows the hygiene products aren't for you. But they may wonder about the makeup!!! ;)

[WCGreen]

34. Yea, as long as it isn't all sorts of funky colors.....

and stuff I don;t understand....

But i'll have my cell so we can talk about it while I an on line...

[blondeatlast]

29. In that case, I need the Tampax Super with the Easy Glide applicator,

the cardboard one, not the vinyl nad by all means unscented.

I'll pay you when I get back.

[WCGreen]

36. I never ever get the scented anything......

[blondeatlast]

30. That's fine, but never buy me a purse for a gift.

My husband did that once, I despised the monstrosity.

[LaraMN]

33. My Husband got me the best purse ever!

I must admit, I was shocked. He ran it by the girls at work, to get the ok.

[WCGreen]

35. The purse, agreed....

I don't want a woman buying me a wallet.....

[no name no slogan]

31. GIMMEE A "T"!!! GIMMEE AN "M"!!! GIMMEE AN "I"!!!

WHAT'S THAT SPELL????

[WCGreen]

38. Tampons, Mydol, Ibuprofen

[Blue-Jay]

44. I wouldn't care.

It;s not like the cashier would think that it's for me or anything. I'd feel more uncomfortable buying 'roid creme.

[WCGreen]

45. How about the Adult Diapers....

I get them for My MIL....

And I look old enough to be needing them myself....

So that is a little embarassing....

[Blue-Jay]

46. You know what would be funny?

Checking out with the adult diapers and farting as loud as you can while the cashier is ringing them up.

Yeah. That would be funny.

[WCGreen]

47. That is just sick and wrong........

Remember that mock commercial they ran on SNL a few years ago...


Oppps, I crapped my pants......

Adult Diapers...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

48. You are a most liberated man, my dear WC.....

Thank God I don't need those products anymore...TAH in 1990.......

Nearly the best decision I ever made......


More men should be as liberated as you are......


:pals:

[WCGreen]

51. Not really, it got me out of the house durring the raging

hormone and cramp stage......

[CaliforniaPeggy]

52. Ah, I hadn't considered that angle......

A very valid and good point, IMHO........

:hi:

[The empressof all]

53. My husband's true tampon shopping story

We went to Venice on our honeymoon. A few days after we arrived I fell and badly sprained my ankle. Well of course, while I was confined in the hotel I needed some personal products which I didn't carry with me.

My wonderful DH traipsed down to the local farmacia expecting he would be able to locate what I needed on the shelf. Poor guy didn't have a clue. As he tells it, he approached the gentleman behind the counter and tried to explain what he needed. In frustration he grabbed his crotch and screamed "Femme....Femme"

Fortunately, he wasn't arrested....and he came back to the hotel with Italian "Depends". He refused to go back.

[WCGreen]

54. If you cut them up!!!!!!!

A little string....

[latebloomer]

55. LOL!!

Great story!

:rofl:
