Two things happened yesterday: I got my period and one of my favorite clients did too, only in the worst way. She was testing out the new Thinx underwear that are designed to absorb two tampons worth of menstruation. You may have seen the following obscene advertisements in the subway (the girl in the first ad is not me):

My client can attest that these panties do not have your back, as she bled straight through on to her pants even while wearing a tampon. I’m not sure how I feel about period soaked panties anyhow…I’ll stick to my nasty period soaked pads and Diva Cup for now.
