Would this really be so bad? Thoughts please.

Why would it be bad? Confused

CoffeeCoffeeAndLotsOfIt · 21/10/2016 16:42

Why is ST bad?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 21/10/2016 16:44

I dont think it's bad?

BadToTheBone · 21/10/2016 16:45

Why?

BadToTheBone · 21/10/2016 16:45

I mean, why would it be bad?

BackforGood · 21/10/2016 16:46

I, too, have come on to find out what might be wrong with it Confused

(I suppose unless you are giving Hugh, Ian as middle names? Wink

elvisola · 21/10/2016 16:46

Mine are ST. I'm 41 and never, ever has anybody commented on them.

GoofyTheHero · 21/10/2016 16:46

Err... what could possibly be bad about it?

Marshmallow92 · 21/10/2016 16:52

Mine are ST, never had any remark made. I'm assuming you're thinking because of saint?

sailawaywithme · 21/10/2016 18:22

ST were my initials before I married...never occurred to me or anyone else that there was any issue!

Dilligufdarling · 21/10/2016 18:48

Only thing I can think of is Sanitary Towell? Bit tenuous though!

UpsyDaisy123 · 21/10/2016 19:06

Yes, sanitary towel. Does nobody else call them STs?

No

FuckThatToOneSide · 21/10/2016 19:11

STs = sanitary towels? Never heard that before. Sounds like something my guide leader might have said Smile.

FuckThatToOneSide · 21/10/2016 19:24

Ugh that was meant to be a Grin not a Smile. Looks like I have really fond memories of my guide leader (I do not). She was a nice lady and all, but not whistful smile worthy!

BackforGood · 21/10/2016 21:51

No. That's just you.

SansasEscape · 22/10/2016 00:04

I've never heard sanitary towels as STs. Ever.

Creatureofthenight · 22/10/2016 00:10

Only time I've ever seen them called STs was in a B&B on the Isle of Wight!
I think you're ok with these initials.

My first thought was a Ford ST, a sports performance car but I live in a house full of car mad males! Sanitary towels wouldn't enter my head.

I would never have made a connection with initials ST! Definitely not an issue!

nennyrainbow · 22/10/2016 18:27

The only person I have ever heard refer to sanitary towels as STs was my mother who would have been 75 this year. I think people stopped calling them that in the 1960s so you should be fine with those initials now!

Itisnotwhatyouknow · 22/10/2016 18:28

I write ST on my shopping list so I would think sanitary towels if I saw ST as initials but I honestly don't think the connection is bad or strong enough to warrant not using the initials.
