definately not for me - and I normally use Super Tampax so its not like I have a problem with them.
so it boils down to the fact that your finger and thumb have to "go in" then grab onto the end and pull it down. It was not a pleasant experience by any means!
god - pity the poor men stumbling across this thread

If that little thing on the end snaps then it's possibly a trip to Emergency to get it removed... unless you can break the seal and have fingers twice the normal length... :scared:

I have a keeper (similar to mooncup) and have used it for a few months now. To remove it you have to get hold of the bottom of it with thumb and forefinger and squeeze it lightly to release the suction, then gently pull it out. I have to say I have given it a go quite a few times and still find it quite painful removing it. I will continue to practice with it though as once in place correctly it works very well.

You know you don't want to look but somehow you are compelled and keep going til the nausea rises again.

I love Rotten.com - I posted it on here a year or so back, and everyone thought that I was weird!

....I actually can't look at it...saw a picture once of a fat bloke in a shower with spagetti coming out of his do-da and decided that I wasn't strong enough. I am so untechnical I forgot that the link would upload. Going to edit the original post as don't want unsuspecting kids getting nightmares (although I know that they will be bright enough to find the link themselves).
...they didn't think you were weird, it just confirmed their suspicions on medical practitioners!
