comparative photo
i found this photo extremely helpful... especially since everyone's first reaction seems to be, "holy ***! this thing is HUGE!" perhaps it'll encourage more women to convert to a cup.
it was particulary nice to open this at work hah. i would suggest a lj cut ;)

Hrm, I can't see any pictures. :(
weird. It didn't work then I checked later and it was working. the link to the picture says that the website has exceeded their bandwidth or something: http://www.geocities.com/angua_nemi/moo
ack! just my luck. unfortunately, i didn't save the photo to my harddrive. i'll try my best to find the picture elsewhere. to describe... it was a picture of a mooncup being compared to a wet, fully expanded tampon (made possible with water) and it illustrated the fact that they are roughly the same size! Also, the enlarged photo showed nicely how icky tampons are since several fibers are hanging loosely off of the tampon.
again. i'll do my best to find it again

I <3 my cup just a little bit more now. Thanks for this!
Oh, my poor Vagina!
To think that that bleached cotton junk was in there for over six hours!
I've had my cup for two years now and I am soooooo happy abou it.

Can I use the picture for my own LJ? I'd love to show the other female bodies people on my f-list what's the what with cups and tampons.
Me too, if that's ok
Well, that should fix the folks who think the cup is way too big for where it goes! It may even help some of the un-informed moms out there exactly what is what too!
It is a nice comparison picture, but how many women would ever actually put a tampon that size into herself? I sure as hell wouldn't, and I never have. The tampons I've used have been significantly smaller. Although at the very least the cup bends and folds; the tampon does not.
that tampon is wet and exanded. it was probably alot more compacted before it was moistened. i'm not the OP but i'm assumg it's a regular sized tampon.
Lots of women do... I used to!

I didn't take these but I know who did.
Yikes! I didn't think I could look forward to the arrival of my DivaCup anymore than I already am... but wow...
