Sometimes old Aunt Flow comes a little earlier than expected, so it's a good idea to keep some emergency tampons on hand just in case. Here are some adorable holders you can keep in your purse or at your desk so your tampons stay clean and protected. Enjoy!

As if there isn't enough weirdness surrounding the menstruation taboo, the creative minds over at Tampax deem it fun and appropriate to suggest that menstruating women can suck the water up out of pools — because of the highly absorbent artillery they shove up themselves for period relief. Thanks to tampons, absolutely nothing can escape a menstruating woman's vajayjay. Nothing!

With the vast array of brands and "sleek designs" and colors and smells and grips and absorption options, how does a dude on a tampon run make a selection? Let's just say his fingers take no part in the picking. Neither does his brain.

Tampons aren't just for that time of the month anymore! Check out these hilarious images from the
Not So Fresh Feeling menstruation themed flickr group
Jezebel found. There are a couple maxi pad pics thrown in (don't want them to feel left out).

Valentine's Day may have come and gone already, but I'm wishing a sweetie had gotten me these truly tasteless earrings. Can you imagine the sort of uncomfortable silence they would inspire in an elevator? Yikes.
