LOL! you guys are hilarious and nutty!   Grin  Grin  Grin


Well, they bought a roll of Cloth and then they cut it to pieces enough to support the panty. And after each use, they would wash it and hang it to dry and reuse it again and again untill the cloth could not be used no more. That was my great grandmother, my grandmother and my mother's time.

I'll stick with the rag thing. At least that's what my grandma told me. They recycled it as they were not rich enough to throw anything away.

Asinine??   Isn't that a little too strong?

Your reply is more asinine than the topic itself. Agreeably the topic is risque but your dismissal in totally inappropriate. you easily have sidelined rather than wasting your contribution!!!  Undecided

I think there are enough things they could av used in stopping d blood stuf, i'm more concerned about how they stopped pregnancy then when their was no condoms and medical preventive measures.
