saffronyellow: i was reading through your blog, and someone mentioned being worried that a moon/diva cup wouldn't fit because of their hymen. it made me think of this, which isn't necessarily period-related, but interesting nonetheless about the hymen :) www lesbilicious co uk/ wp-content/ uploads /2009/ 12/corona pdf (it won't let me post a link, hence the spaces)

I’ve had this bookmarked for a while but haven’t gotten around to reading it yet. However many of the feminists I follow and admire have reblogged this and I’d hazard a guess that it’s definitely worth reading. 

Many are taught that the hymen is a membrane, when, in actual fact, it’s made of small folds of tissue. This belief can be very harmful so, if you can, give this a read. Knowledge is power.
