Should I tell him he drank my mooncup water?

[mooncupbeverage]

I have namechanged for this. I've been pondering whether to tell him?

This morning I sterilised my mooncup (hasn't been sterilised since last period) in boiling water in a mug. Used the tongs to get it out and took it upstairs but in rush of getting DCs out of the door for school forgot to get rid of the boiling water and put the mug in the dishwasher.

DH has recently taken to drinking hot water plain - he alternates it with coffee as he says it makes his breath better.

He drank the mooncup water and was finishing the mug as he left for work.

There's no point in telling him is there?

It's not about science, it about what is disgusting.

Moon cups in mugs and dishwashers. Tasting period blood. All very disgusting.

Nothing like receiving head unless he licks you whilst on your period.

Some people are just nasty dirty animals.

I agree, bullshit to the "its science" comment. Its the thought of it and having respect/care for your family by practising decent hygiene.

its like drinking someones fucking bath water.

flirty oh shove off would you! I do hope you’ve never kissed or touched a human, that you know, came out of a VAGINA!

Fuck me, some people are just nasty!

You sterilise your moon cup in the microwave.............ah good god no.....

My fella goes down when I'm on my period and I would suck him after a bit of period sex. I can't see the big deal.

O think you shouldn’t tell him, but every time he annoys you think of it. You’ll smile inwardly and he’ll think you’ve become really zen....

flirty oh shove off would you! I do hope you’ve never kissed or touched a human, that you know, came out of a VAGINA!

Well exactly. We've all lived in this environment, for up to 40 weeks. It's the lining of the womb, it's there to nurture a growing foetus. For those who find all this yuck, never read ^I contain multitudes*. Or perhaps do read it, as it may well change your perspective completely.

No calls for Classics yet?

noarmani hence my comment

also some cultures have a completelly different take on menstruation

so op he has performed a major ritual heheheheheheh
my husband is still chuckling about your post

Mine came with a wee pot of its own to microwave in however my microwave blew up and not getting another until Christmas so I can imagine similar type scenarios arising especially if I use a saucepan

The range of opinions on this thread is a world apart from the one a few days ago about a man cumming in one of his socks (which was met with almost unanimous condemnation).

I didn't read that thread but why would you expect the responses to be the same?

Every time I see this thread title in Active my face goes < not envy.

I know some people are happy to stick their loo brush in the dishwasher

@DyslexicNotThick this is possibly the most disgusting thing I've ever read on MN and I've been here a long time. WTAF!

Is this trying to be the new penis barker?

It has the same whiff of newsfeed shite fodder about it.

@NotANotMan

Because I don't see how one bodily fluid being discharged into a sock, which goes into a washing machine, is apparently more universally egregious than using drinking receptacles and dishwashers as cleaning implements for another bodily fluid.

Neither bother me in principle, although our dishwasher is so crap it'd probably leave our dishes looking like a murder scene.

Holy shit 😂

you need to save this information. It will be great to tell him one day. Every time he annoys you you can smugly think ‘you drank moon juice’.

...obviously that should be penis beaker. Penis barker is a completely made up incident I plan to start a thread about, involving a penis and a curious schnauser called Mister Snifter.

I would be saving that for an appropriate time when you need a one liner....

I soak mine in Milton only to make it look clean. Washing in soap and water leaves it still looking grubby.

I’ve done so for the last 15 years. Mooncup and vag doing fine thanks.

I'd of told him as he was drinking it through uncontrollable laughter.

This has cheered me right up.

I haven't told him but I do think after some of the reasoned responses here he wouldn't be that fussed. Neither of us are hysterical over hygiene - we have normal practices, washing hands after toilet, cleaning surfaces thoroughly etc - but I wouldn't put my bog brush in the dishwasher and I do accept I shouldn't have left the mooncup mug in the kitchen. I wouldn't serve coffee (or lunar tea, if that's your bag ) in it even if it wasn't the mooncup mug! It's a really ugly mug which is why I banished it in the first place - I never imagined anyone might drink from it, let alone after boiling my mooncup in it!

It had been rinsed prior to microwaving it so I doubt it had any menstrual matter anywhere on it - but as a poster said before I wouldn't want to drink a cup of water someone had rinsed their hands or feet (or penis) in so was having a bit of a moral moment as to whether I should admit it.

And I think I won't. For now I bet he's washed his balls with my face cleansing ONLY flannels anyway tbh.

I don't get the freaking out about microwaving a menstrual cup - the directions for cleaning my meluna cup include microwaving!

I have a little pot with a lid that I got when I bought my cup, you fill it with water and rest the lid on top so the steam can escape, and zap it for a few minutes. Done.

Don't see why microwaving is so controversial when it's suggested by the manufacturer?
