Not to go all History Channel on you, but period underwear is such a game-changer for modern women.
First of all, it's revolutionary, because it has forever changed the way women deal with their periods. Throughout history, women navigated the challenges of menstrual cycles using various (super meh) methods, including cloth and homemade pads. Modern women's menstrual hygiene is transformed by period underwear… It provides a sustainable, comfortable, and leak-proof alternative to traditional products like pads and tampons. It also offers women the chance to feel confident and unrestricted during their periods (which hello, big win), challenging societal taboos and promoting period positivity.
The woman in the story below had good intentions when rescuing her partner's daughter during her first period… But her partner's ex-wife disagreed, and even got her lawyer involved in an attempt to get full custody of her kids. Overreact much? Maybe. Scroll down to read all about it, and then check out these Lord of the Rings memes.
