how could she have done that with tampons? those get flushed down the toilet.

Ask any plumber, you're never supposed to flush tampons down the toilet.

you want us to throw them in the trash can? That's really gross

Wrap it in toilet paper? Most bathrooms have signs that say do not flush the tampons.

it says on the labels and warnings not to flush tampons in the toilet because they can clog them. just wrap them in toilet paper and throw them away, how is it that much different from throwing away pads? if you just throw pads away without wrapping them in something then you are nasty.

you can so flush tampons. they now say "flushable tampons" and even "flushable cardboard applicator"

and by the way, if your tampons are clogging the toilet, then you must have massive tampons. they're like no wider than your thumb. i'm just saying.

Lmao massive tampons

Tampons expand in water :.

You're not supposed to flush tampons, even "flushable" ones. Even more so if you're on a septic system. What's more gross, throwing used tampons in the trash can or having to pump out your septic tank? :/

@ 68: It's different. Pads have an adhesive plastic side an the side that absorbs the blood, so you can just roll/fold it with the adhesive side on the outside and wrap it up to make sure it doesn't come unrolled. Tampons are basically a string with fiber on it to absorb blood, but can only hold so much liquid. There is really no unmessy way to "wrap up" a tampon. Hence, most people just plop it in the toilet.

Your picture is what dogs say when they eat pads/tampons
