When you as a woman realise that every culture has their definition of ‘prostitute’—the woman with her hair out, the unmarried woman, women who live alone, who wear red lipstick, who work, etc—you will understand that prostitute means woman, & you will fight for your liberation.
I had my menstrual cup for almost 6 years. That’s N14,000 for 6 years. Thats a ridiculous savings. Only threw it out cause my whole house had a mold issue and I didn’t want to take risk.
I just bought another from med plus. N12,500 last weekend. Thats another at 6 years. Also no trash, nothing to dispose of. Just pour down the toilet and flush.
I also have significantly less cramps, absolutely zero irritation, can swim, sleep naked and go out for hours without changing on regular days. I have one heavy flow day per period where I have to change once every three to four hours but most days I’m fine for up to 8/10 hours at a time.
Also with practice you learn how to empty your cup without spilling a drop so I can change in public toilets with zero stress.
