Today, a bunch of friends and I went skinny dipping in a pond. The guys all grabbed the ladies' underpants and waved then around. My bloody pad was inside of one of them. FML

the string would be hanging out if she went skinny dipping lol and the pad wouldn't have been bloody if she had a tampon. ^

Who goes skinny dipping with thier friends?

People who are comfortable with their bodies and their friends?

Everyone's so invested in telling women what we can and can't do on our periods. Wow. Reminds me of a past FML when a girl found out via pictures that her tampon string had been visible when she was dancing sexily at a club and everyone was telling her it was her own fault because apparently being sexy while on your period is not allowed. No, women can do the exact same range of stuff on our periods as we can do off our periods (unless prevented by debilitating cramps). If that makes men uncomfortable, tough.

I'm a bit disheartened by the shaming comments from other women, too. Okay, so blood is a bodily fluid and should generally be avoided, but maybe that means the GUYS in this particular FML were responsible for not being gross dicks? **** OP's life. First the FML itself, then the rain of judgment.

It is a little more gross to get your period blood in the pool than dancing. The girl dancing wasn't going to get period everywhere, this girl got NAKED and was free flowing, literally.

It wasn't a pool, it was a pond. Ponds have ecosystems around them, so there's probably some life form around there that would just eat or otherwise decompose the blood, no big deal. If the pond can handle the occasional inevitable dead frog or fish, the pond can handle a little period blood. It's not really adding significant levels of grossness. Also, water pressure stops the flow. So assuming she intended to put her underwear on immediately after getting out, the "free flowing" is just a transitional stage and wouldn't last long enough to really matter unless she had a super heavy flow.

There are so many problems with this situation

Why would you do that on your period? You kinda walked into that one.

Maybe you shouldn't go skinny dipping while on your period and using pads instead of tampons...?

WHY DID YOU SKINNY DIP WHILE YOU WERE ON THE RAG COME ON GIRL

Kind a gross and if your in that state I don't see any reason why you should dive-in naked?

why would you skinny dip on your period girl? she'd probably bleed right after getting in the water for when coming out
