Last night, as I wandered through the Feminine Protection aisle of my local Target store, I came upon what I think must be the product of the century.
Ladies...may I introduce...
Apparently, Instead is a "12 Hour Feminine Protection Cup" apparently "A proven alternative to pads and tampons that you can wear up to 12 hours"
Directions:
To insert, squeeze the opposite side of the rim together.
Insert Instead completely into the vagina.
Instead molds itself to your unique internal shape for a personal fit.
To remove Instead, simply hook your finger under the rim and slowly pull.
Can anyone explain to me why we need this product? Have any of you used it?
Who thought this up? Some American Inventor reject who enjoys seeing women suffer?
And when you hook your finger under the rim and slowly pull...I shudder to think of what will happen. Apparently, the best place to do this is in the shower...for obvious reasons.
Now you can't use Instead if you have an IUD, ever have had Toxic Shock or leave it in 12 hours and one minute...or you may die...or something. Oh yeah..it's also not a condom or diaphragm...don't mix up the two.
There are five star product reviews for this thing all over the internet, and apparently they have been around for years.
I just don't get it.
I just find it wierd.

I've never heard of it....doesn't really interest me either. ick
Lets see how long this item stays on the market, huh?
Very strange. Hell, the next thing they'll be telling us women to do is just stick one of those plastic party beer cups up there, after all it holds more. LOL!!
I have tried it, it's not that bad, no mess really and you can't feel it in there or anything. I would probably use it still but they are way more expensive than tampons.
I'm sure they work, since the gov't approaved it ... but I like your idea of pulling it out. Eeek!
