To think changing your tampon in a gym change room is a bit foul?

I was at the gym earlier today, getting changed after my shower in the change room while chatting to a friend. A woman came out of the showers wrapped in her towel. Before my friend and I knew what was happening, she had whipped out her tampon and put it in the bin!

I sent a PM and said "is it who I think it is named actress " and it was!

Not going to say though as the whole reason Dame didn't is because it will get the thread pulled.

I wouldn't expect to see someone fiddling about with their private parts in a changing room.

Aeroflotgirl · 06/05/2015 14:52

Why the hell would you do that!

Havnt read all the way through replies. To me.its a health and saftey issue. I work in hospital any blood contaminated products are handled with gloves and protective clothing then incinerated. The problem is many people arnt aware they have a blood born disease. Poor person emptying the bin. This is why company's are paid to provide sanitary bins for safe disposal of blood contaminated products.

Cheers for messages.

I used to like her until I read about her affair years ago with another famous person's husband and it put me off a bit to be honest!

Gross! I had a similar horrid experience when someone had left a used tampon on the overhead luggage/coat rack thing in the changing cubicles at centre parcs. I threw my coat up onto the rack and as I looked up it was teetering on the edge. ShockShock We were in a family cubicle and think DH was nearly sick!! Obviously it was gross but we laugh about it now!!

Gross , unhygienic and inconsiderate.

First person that popped into my thoughts when I read Dame's post Grin

I'd rather inadvertently observe a tampon being changed in a changing room than stand on a used plaster

When I managed a charity shop, we got a huge amount of underwear donated with used pant liners/ sanitary towels stuck in. And used nappies, I don't recall tampons though. (also handbags with used liners in the pockets) A lot of mouldy jockstraps and duvets someone had shat in (very often left in the doorway on a Monday morning.. obviously a wild weekend then) Shock am about to start a new charity shop job and this side of it i'm kind of dreading!

alltoomuchrightnow · 06/05/2015 21:42

oh and people used to piss and shit in the changing rooms too and baby change.

AbbeyRoadCrossing · 06/05/2015 21:44

alltoomuch one of the worst pants I dealt with had been gift aided so the person had given their name and address when donating them, clearly not shy at all!

FickleByNurture · 06/05/2015 21:47

Wasn't there a bit in 50 shades of shit trilogy where Mr Grey whips out her tampon so he can have sex with her?

Fairy13 · 06/05/2015 21:52
