Speaking of menstruation...

I kind of doubt I have many men-folk who wake up in the morning wondering if VegKat has anything new and witty to say. If I do, and you happen to be one, you might want to wait for another day for me to change your life. This is for the ladies. Unless you are a dude who gets a period, in which case you had better get to your proctologist, NOW.

I know I said I didn't openly celebrate my period and go to Moon Goddess meetings or anything like that, but I also realize it's a normal thing and all the ladies experience it. And it's also ok to talk about it. I wasn't raised by Carrie's mother or anything. She didn't lock me in a closet and beat me when I got my boobies.

My children both wore or are currently wearing cloth diapers. I don't like the chemicals used in disposable nappies, and bundling up my wee ones in plastic isn't my idea of comfort. Google "chemicals in disposable diapers" and see if you like what you read. Cause I didn't! Through this research, I found out the same chemicals we ignorantly place so close to our babies' itty bitty bits are the same questionable chemicals we put near (OR IN!) our bits. NOT cool. (Google "chemicals in tampons". Like what you see?) You know what else isn't cool? Getting a surpise waxing from super-human strength adhesive on a "wing". Seriously. You know what I mean. But what can we do? The only thing to do is to keep buying these products from these evil, giant corporations that have been brainwashing women since our grandmothers were children. Wait until something new and better comes along, right? I wasn't really happy with that, so I delved deeper.

What's old is new, my friends! Turns out some women use cloth pads. WHAT? How weird is that. You mean you bleed on it, then wash it, then use it again? Kinda gross. I mean, it's not like wrapping a baby up in cloth, letting them poop on it, then washing it and putting it back on them. Wait... OH! I get it! Ok, so not so gross! Then with just a tad bit more digging into the world wide web, I found out people actually make them and sell them! It's a (not so) dirty little secret the evil masterminds at the K---x and T----x companies don't want you to know! And not only do they not contain any chemicals, but they are made from super soft, cute fabrics and you only have to buy them once! No more running out in the middle of the night because you are bleeding all over your house. Gross. Just do a load of laundry, you lazy bum.

But lucky you. You happened to stumble upon my blog, and don't have to do any of that laborous research finding the best product for the best price! See, I'm doing humanity a favor. All you need to do is click here:

Easy! And no, I'm not affiliated with Crea8tiveMama at all. I just buy her stuff. Because she's AWESOME. Just look at her fabrics! Just look at her prices! I'm telling you people, once you switch, you will wonder what the hell you were ever thinking wearing that trash in your underwear. Oh, and another great thing about them. You know that horrible CRINKLE CRINKLE KKKKRRRRIIIIPPPPPPP CRINKLE CRINKLE CRINKLE that gives away your feminine mystique? These don't have that. Unless you like that, then you can wrap them up in wrapping paper and pretend you are giving yourself a little present several times a day, several days a month. Which with these, you basically are.
