Any period pants that haven’t sold out?

I’d love to get period pants and maybe a menstrual cup but I’m buggered if I’m handing over my hard earned cash to arseholes who erase women.

Any recommendations?

We deleted your post OP as it seemed to have identifying photos. Thanks everyone for your reports about it.

I have modi bodi. Cost an arm and a leg. What have they done ffs?
Have ModiBodi gone all “people with periods” ? I don’t buy Thinx because of this, I like my Modibodi pants but I won’t buy any more if this the case. I have a nice pair from French lingerie brand Chantelle, but they were expensive.

We have a range in this house.
Ignoring all politics the order of preference is
Modi Bodi
primark
Wuka

The Wuka ones are big like a nappy and have a weird smell. The Primark ones are very close runner ups to Modi Bodi.

Modi Bodi sold out didn’t they?

Thanks. I’d rather buy from somewhere more ethical than primark.

Sorry I’m picky 🙈

That was Westfield London (not Stratford). I can't vouch for them. I've had non-period pants from there that are excellent, and some that are far from excellent. Looked all right at a long glance.

Yearofthetygerburningbright · 18/02/2022 21:09

They had some in both Westfield and Marble Arch Primarks a few days ago.

WUKA did try a bit of "for all women, even those who think they are not female" marketing. Got told off on social media. Dropped the whole thing and are now firmly women focussed. suspect some advertising agency got a knuckle rapping from the CEO. Who's from Nepal, so, you know, I expect she understands the challenges of menstruating while female.

I bought them because of this. They are great, no leaks, not sweaty. Expensive, but washing well and no place to fit the penis that I don't have, which is worth an extra tenner.

I've heard Primark do ok ones.
