Just say it: Yes, I'm menstruating

In a recent unaired, cut-for-time commercial parody on "Saturday Night Live," Phoebe Waller-Bridge asks Aidy Bryant for a tampon, but doesn't want to do the hand-off in their college classroom. Bryant tells her not to worry, because she carries Tampax Secrets: tampons that come wrapped inside "other things you'd rather take out of your bag in public" -- a litany of humorously awful things to take out in public, including dog feces, a dead mouse, a "respectfully folded Confederate flag," and a signed copy of "Mein Kampf." The message here is clear: women are conditioned to be so ashamed and secretive about our periods that we'd rather be seen carrying around a dead mouse than a pad or tampon.
