Free pissing and free shitting is pretty liberating too, but it's also fucking disgusting.

That's not what the article is suggesting you do.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean here. Does this mean that you should be asking everyone else to get back on topic too or that violent counterrevolution is on topic?

Not trying to give you a hard time or anything.

I guess you could wear a certain dress that would not "leave bodily fluids over everything you fucking sit on", plus, there is also wiping.

What a stupid concept. Not dripping blood around wherever you live is a convenience to everyone involved, including the woman. Their loss when there's menstrual blood on everything they own. Granted, these sorts of radfems don't own a whole lot. Jobs are patriarchy and the welfare goes to student loans

It is not, however, an evil feminist plot to overthrow society one drop of blood at a time. If anything, it sort of reinforces the "women stay at home in the kitchen" mindset, because, you know, stopping menstruation kind of enables women to go out and carry on their lives for a few days every month, instead of being forced to go into high-maintenance, do-nothing mode.

I propose that all the MRA omega males respond by freejaculating.

No, but they are illustrating that the practice does exist. Probably this a trend myth, but it is amusing all the same.

2.4 tablespoon (35mL) over the course of an average 5-7 days is .02 tablespoons(<0.3mL) in an hour or less. Even if it does exist... It's hardly a damn problem unless the person sits in the same bus seat for 7 days with no clothes on.

This is a quite ignorant post.
Women can ejaculate too.

That isn't what the practice is though: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle ... -activists

[...]Quint isn't the only one breaking taboos. It seems that menstrual activism (otherwise known as radical menstruation, menstrual anarchy, or menarchy) is having a moment. The term is used to describe a whole range of actions, not all considered political by the person involved: simple efforts to speak openly about periods, radical affronts to negative attitudes and campaigns for more environmentally friendly sanitary products. (It is estimated that a woman will dispose of 11,400 tampons in her lifetime – an ecological disaster.)[...]

There are plenty of good reasons to not use tampons.

Good thing nobody was advocating that if you would RTFA instead of just reading the OP's version of it, you'd know that already.

Well each woman uses a enough tampons in her life time (around 11,400) that she could make a throne out of them. Wouldn't hurt if women used something other than a tampon once in a while, wouldn't make the world end to reduce the number of tampons that have to be disposed of. :meh:

Game of Thrones would certainly have a different ring to it.

I can't imagine many of the characters would be quite so pushed about fighting for the Super-Absorbent Throne of Westeros.

Tampons are probably better for the environment than pads. My tampons don't have applicators so there are little small plastic wrappers and then biodegradable cotton and that's it. Pads have plastic backings with glue on them.

Alternative options do not tend to be widely available.
