Please, I Don't Wash Blooding Panties!

Subject: Please, I Don't Wash Blooding Panties!

So I felt like sharing a somewhat intimate experience. Bear with me.

I dropped off my laundry at the new laundry spot on Park Place and Franklin. Nothing out of the ordinary. My girlfriend had a few of her things mixed in. Like many women - she has something called a menstrual cycle and occasionaly her underwears get a bit stained. You follow?

So I go to pick up the load, bring it home, and was suprised to find a business-sized envelope mixed in with the wash. It read "Please, I Don't Wash Blooding Panties! Thank you." A truly, desperate cry for help. I could imagine the attendant's face, after washing dookie-stained underoos after dookie-stained underoos, only to be stopped in her tracks by the Deadly Captain Menses. Look Out! You'll get the curse all over you!

So - laundry lady: I would like to apologize. I hope that you didn't contract a menstraul cycle, and if you did, not to worry, they got a pill for that.

OMG- total fake post!!!! =D>

Aren't you a little young to be taking on a big responsibility like laundry? Why don't you and your girl friend have your moms do your laundry like all other 13-year-olds do?

Blood, while wet, only comes out with cold water if anything.

I've yet to find a local laundry service that offers anything but super hot water washings that shrink your clothes.

1.totally old (beyond) enough to be doin' the laundry, all totally true.

2.Hence, the reason to post this.

3.Point - cracked me and my girl up (after she got over being a bit offended), and not a good laundromat.

Okay...how did she not notice leakage? Seriously, are you people that nasty that you just go around squirting bodily fluids all over your clothes then not at least rinse them out before making someone else wash them (not to mention having to touch them, turn them right side out, etc)?

i would be shocked (if this is legit) only because i'm sure they've washed other things that aren't so great.

BUT, much like if you get sick during the night you go wash your puked-on sheets, this may be the same thing. i'm not saying "do a load at the laundromat of your girlfriend's bloody panties" but why wouldn't she rinse them out in a sink with some detergent or woollite before sending them out? she doesn't care that they are ruined?

Uh, I don't want to shame you and your girlfriend anymore than you already have been, but EVERYONE knows to rinse panties in cold water and soap if you get blood on them.

That's just the first thing. Second, giving bloody panties to someone else to clean is almost as bad as going to get your cooch waxed or for gynecological visit without making sure that you are clean as a whistle "down there'. Wtf?!!

Coochies are clean. Perhaps you should pick up a copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves.

I have a copy of "Our Bodies Ourselves" and I'm sure that Cristiane Northrup would agree that a shower before a check up is appreciated by any doctor that has a functioning sense of smell as it is not the vagina itself that's the problem, but some people's lack of personal hygiene.
