'Glue for labia'

[ooohsopink]

A US chiropractor has 'developed' a 'glue' that makes your labia stick together when you are having a period, to hold back the menstrual blood until you next pee.

Apparently, this is hygienic and will help women from becoming distracted by their monthly menstrual cycle.

Discuss.

God, you know how bad period sneezes are? Can you imagine if you had 3 hours+ of heavy flow backed up, sneezed and then had projectile period all over the boardroom?
I'd rather just wear a pad thanks.

I can't see the diagram of 'female anatomy' from his patent (linked earlier), can someone post a screenshot? I need a good laugh.

What about all the hair?

Ewww.

W. T. F.

exactly NotAMammy, imagine when the glue fails? or you go out and get drunk and fall asleep on the sofa before going for a wee. A vagina full of blood suddenly expelled. Why would you risk that instead of just using a tampon or pad and quickly changing it every time you naturally go to the loo. And how would the wee even dissolve the glue when it comes out above the vagina? BONKERS. not to mention offensive.

So he reckons it would reduce infections. But surely it would actually increase things like UTI?

[What about all the hair?] somehow I think the type of women coerced into this pile of shite will be very, very devoid of hair. I can imagine the "good doctor" would see it as another failing of female anatomy.

Good grief. If it was April 1st today I would absolutely think this was a ridiculous wind-up and in poor taste.

Imagine how it would feel to have a few hours of heavy flow, sloshing about up there - eww. Now that would be distracting.

I thought that this was the funniest things I ever read on MN.

BUt the more I think about it, the creepier it seems.

Isn't one form of FGM sewing the inner lips together?

I think I'd struggle to piss up my own nostril
That's the kind of self-limiting thinking women have struggled with, due to being weakened by their menstrual flow Ineedmorelemonpledge. In fairness you prob wouldn't want to dip your finger in some wee and rub it on your nose to release the glue (although this seems entirely possible in Upside Down World where this bloke lives in his head) but he could formulate another kind of glue that lost its adhesiveness when it came in contact with water, or gin, or some other handy liquid.

Is he really serious and deluded or seeing whether he can get something so ludicrous patented?

No way Jose

Omg I just started a thread about this, didn't see this one. I'm sickened. So angry. It's dangerous, stupid, can't believe he was granted a patent. It hasn't solved any kind of problem, it'll create more than solve! Dipshit!

I would be afraid of the balloon effect. Followed by the exploding balloon effect. Not nice in Waitrose.

Gin it is then.

I am a hypocrite to post on here as i have the coil and very rarely deal with crusty, disgusting blood diapers.

But perhaps an alternative for those rare occasions could be some sort of labial piercing string where I can lash up my gash with the coil strings, rather like a traditional shoe lace?

I'd need a man to really look into the detail and design for me though. I think I'm getting the vapours...

I just don't think this is a real product that has been used by real women freely able to give feedback! If you read their tweets [[https://twitter.com/menseztech]] it's just a whole load of rubbish!

I don't get the crusty think either? blood doesn't really crust over does it? my tampons and pads are always quite moist (and easily processed in seconds, you stupid, stupid little man)

I think we should invent a glue for attaching his penis to his head, where it belongs.

Crikey - haven't been able to log on all day as been out and about - can't believe all the comments! MNers - I am crying at some of your replies - you are all brilliant.

(Again - sorry for the original 'discuss' thing - not meant like that at all)

I actually think we might be witnessing this guy having a mental breakdown:

or it's an elaborate prank.

He's obviously never heard of menstrual cups. Does the same as his mad idea without the need for gluing body parts together.

he's invented other pointless things - Google Wavecap closures and ClearNeon. What are these things for? what problems.do they solve? Actually, maybe his weird bottle tops (er, don't we already have those?) could be used as mooncups and then he could dispense with the glue entirely?

Long con wind up or major post midlife crisis breakdown I reckon.

I cant seem to screenshot it for some reason, however on his twitter page:

Hide her tampons and replace them with Mensez Feminine Lip-stick #LessEvilPlans

What kind of weird messed up advice advert is that??

DW (from the bathroom) Cant find my Sans -pro?!
DH - Ah, I've thrown them away
DW - WTF?
DH - (passes through Mensez) Dont worry dear, I thought it best you glued your fanny shut
DW - Seriously, WTF?
DH - You're not thinking straight. You're welcome

I don't want to discuss. Thank you.

Sorry OP - I now realise that you have apologised for the discuss aspect. It just makes me feel like I have to automatically write an essay in response :-)

It's not for sale. I don't think he's even made any. I think it's just the delusional rantings of someone rather unwell who thinks they are going to become a multimillionaire this year.
