*shrug* if you wish to, good and fine. i don't use tampons much just becuase they dry me out; i use pads and/or Instead... but i know plenty of people who are perfectly happy with tampons. their choice; so long as they are educated that they need to watch out for tss symptoms i see no problem. (like i said above: even if only 1/10 of the cases are diagnosed, it's still incredibly rare; problems like car accidents kill far more people, percentage-wise, yet we don't stop buying cars nor does anyone really say "the government should make cars illegal"... just say "try to make them safer and make people use them in a safe manner, and make emergency care available." why? because so many people need to use them and use them in a safe manner...)...

scuse me for rambling on, i'm half asleep :)
