the BBC are getting desperate in their attempts to throw us off the scent.

What's the story here?

I think it's that some people with fannies and periods tried them and 70% said they were alright. Also many had never heard of Mooncup as a thing.

I remember a recent argument on Facebook with a transexclusionary feminist objecting to unisex toilets with shared sinks on the (rather vanishingly unlikely) prospect that a non-woman may catch her washing her MoonCup™ out in the sink. We are a tragically repressed set of people.

I love how normal and unrepressed you all are.  It's great to feel like I could wash out my mooncup in front of you and hardly anyone would remark on the smell.

I am viscerally repulsed by the Moon Cup and all things vaginal.

There is that one famous story of the woman who left it in for 2 weeks (somehow?) and very bad things.

I'd even let you use my pressure washer.

Well feminist, me!

Pffft, everyone knows you rinse them out in the disabled toilets. No way would I rinse mine out in a sink where people could see me, and I have never witnessd anyone else rinse one out in a sink either.

I invested in a menstrual cup a couple of months ago. Since having my Nexplanon out I have been having regular periods for the first time in my life, and been reminded how expensive tampons are. I have now discovered that menstrual cups are, for me at least, cleaner, more comfortable and more convenient than tampons. Also not at all scary once you've figured them out. And they don't smell.

I had been put off by all those eulogising "Ooooooh I LOVE my Mooncup!" types putting Mooncup-promoting stickers on the back of toilet doors and being all preachy on Facebook. While I have to admit that mine is pretty great, I can't say I love it. Fucking weirdoes.

I didnt know that's what they are for, I've been frustratingly using them as poorly fitted thimbles for years.

Crazy to think I had the same avatar in 2006!

Oh just another thought on mooncups vs tampons.  There's a tampon I'm aware of, it's been lying out, unprotected in the open for over a year since I first spotted it, so maybe longer.  It is still a completely recognisable tampon.

In the UK it's estimated that, in 2018, 38.9 million tampons were used, so that's something to think about whilst you're chewing over reasons for not joining Extinction Rebellion.

Guilty as charged, you pesky litter lout!
