Today, I had to explain to my little brother that my pads were not in fact "big band-aids" and that he should probably remove them from his legs. FML

Today, I had to explain to my 14-year-old sister why one must not wear the same pair of knickers for a week. FML
Today, I had a performance. I have to go bra-less to wear my gown and I didn't want any peek-a-boos. I asked my boyfriend to bring "large band-aids" without telling him why I needed them. He brought waterproof, top-notch tough ones. They're still stuck to me, and are not coming off anytime soon. FML
Today, my older brother and some of his cute friends came over. When we were inside, my mom yelled to me, "I got you some bigger tampons because you leaked all over your new underwear." They all started laughing. FML
Today, I had to explain to my brother why it's not OK to stick his knob in the toaster. FML
Today, I was working at my day-camp, and one of my little boys told me he had to show me something important. He proudly showed me that he'd crapped his pants. I had to wipe his ass clean. FML
Today, my mom told my dad to get me extra absorbent pads, very loudly, in a crowded mall. FML
Today, my brother saw my side when my shirt came up, and asked when I got a tattoo; the pink he saw was in fact my stretch marks. Worst of all, I had to show them to everyone to prove I didn't actually get a tattoo. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Actually, what are used for feminine hygiene today were originally absorbent bandages on the battlefield. They were then marketed and developed for periods. He's more right than you are.

When my brother was about 9, he found my box of tampons and walked into the kitchen and asked what they were and do they go up the butt and was it to stop diarrhea? He had looked at the drawing of a woman pushing a tampon. My older sister and I gave him a Health lesson that day. Poor kid had a look of horror on his face. Now at 19, he doesnt get grossed out when his girlfriend or one of us gals needs him to go to the store or get us ice cream.
