To have asked DH to buy my youknows?

[FrankieDobie]

Is it unreasonable able to ask a man to buy youknows when they are going out to the shop anyway? It’s not an extra trip, to buy whilst already there?

“Youknows”???

Tampons/sanitary towels?
It's not hard to say the actual words
Yes my dh would buy them for me as long as I specified exactly which ones I wanted I.e. not scented

Oh go back to bed ffs!

Youknows?

What on earth are you knows? Do you mean Uno?

Do you mean tampons or pads etc for your period? No YANBU.

We can say tampons/sanitary towels on MN, I presume that's what you mean?

If you mean dildos I can see why that might be awkward for him.

If you can't even use the right words, then YADBU!

Well if you are too embarrassed to type the word, you can't really complain about him being too embarrassed to buy them for you.

youknows

What on earth?

If you cannot even bring yourself to say the correct words online then you cannot really expect DH to buy them can you

What the hell is a youknow

Wow, two threads about tampons on the first page. 🙄

Do you mean sanitary towels/tampons? My DH would make a special trip to get them if I asked him.

I would have no respect for a man who couldn't buy me sanitary protection. It's pathetic. It is a perfectly normal, reasonable thing to buy, no different to buying soap or tissues.

Are you sure you're old enough to need them if you're calling sanitary products 'you knows?'

What on Earth are you talking about?
If it's sanitary protection then why not just say that?
So weird

You are very unreasonable to ask him when you can’t bloody say it??

My dad had 3 daughters so wasn’t phased and bought ours if shopping and my partner has bought mine. Periods and sanitary wear aren’t taboo. Ffs.

This! If I needed tampons I’d ask my partner to pick up tampons - green/super non compact ones and probably send him a photo to make sure they were right.

If you’ve asked you partner in a coy way to get something you’re embarrassed about, rather than in a matter of fact way like you’d ask him to pick up milk, it’s no wonder he thinks it’s a bit weird.

If “youknows” are actually condoms then you are still being unreasonable but he is also being unreasonable if he’s not buying them.

YABVU for referring to “you knows”

Grow the fuck up

DH will buy my whatjamicallims, whatsits and thingmybobs, but he draws the line at youknows.

Have I gone back in time??

My dad made me cry as a teen by buying me tampons when my mum was in hospital without me even having to ask him. Legend.

If you’re not old enough to type tampon then are you sure you need any?

Youknows? WTAF we’re grown ups who can say tampons if that’s what it is.
My DH has been into a shop just to buy them and nothing else. Why make it a thing?
