re: #28 retired cynic

My mother and grandmother told me what they had to use when they were young. It blew my mind, and I shook to think of having to deal with that. Lordy.

My mother was staying at her grandmother’s farm one summer and asked her grandmother for money to buy pads. My grandmother pointed to a stack of rags and said, “You’ll use these, we don’t have money for pads.” This was 1950s California.
