I thought the applicator is to help it get inside, rather than being an "icky" issue.
So you guys are describing just the cotton part of the tampon, that is all you use? I would think 1. dry cotton would hurt rubbing against the opening and 2. cotton is more flimsy and would bend trying to go inside
the tampons I use in the US, i thought the point of the applicator is to have something stiff and smooth to insert. i can't imagine trying to get in just the cotton. unless tampons without applicators are made different? i'm just really curious!
