Headlines like this really make me question how many critically online creeps who probably have never seen a singlular woman besides their mom before are out there buying this kinda stuff.

Assuming this is between two consenting parties (I.e the person knows where their tampon is going), what makes them a creep?

I am one of those people who thinks it’s just creepy regardless of the situation for someone to want to willingly buy used hygiene products. The people selling their used hygiene products, weird, but not creepy in my mind like the buyers.

Is there any risk of them being used to taint a crime scene?

Don’t think so, it’s basically dried blood.

It’s all dried blood, eventually.

While we’re being gruesomely pedantic, it’s not technically blood

Would be so much more fucked up if that’d be child water

Even just the phrase “child water” sounds all fucked up.
