...okay...this sounds really weird, especially since everyone around me at school and that thinks of me as a bit of a sexual know-it-all (not from experience, but from reading, as you could probably tell from me looking at places like vagpag, I'm only 15), but...y'see, I've never really done the self-exploration thing, and that really messes things up when I try to use tampons. I don't know, it just seems really weird, I don't like touching myself when anyone is in the house, and it makes it somewhat worse when my parents were born in the 40s, and its only me and them in the house.
So...the last time I ever tried to use tampons was back when I was like 13, and it didn't seem to work out that well, because I know I didn't get them in right. My mom came from pre-tampon popularity era, so there isn't much help with experience from her. Pads are starting to totally torture me, probably because of the diaper feeling thing. Well, it doesn't help either when your mother buys you that protective underwear, which you can tell makes me totally distant from my mother with my body, lol.
I guess, what I'm saying, is that do you girls have any advice for trying to properly position a tampon, or anything?
