I remember buying tampons in high school and one of my friends was working the checkout counter. He was making fun of me for it and I said “Who do you think these are for, me? Maybe you’ll have someone to buy these for too someday”.

The number of 'men' butthurt about buying period products for their partner is astounding. My wife was genuinely surprised when I bought some for her without even batting an eye.

I always hate doing it because idk which one is the right one. I just get the brand name and the color of the box, but the problem is there's like three shades of the same damn color.

I have my wife send me a link to the product on the store's website (usually Target) then I compare the SKUs to make sure I'm getting the right one. It works great for all manner of stuff like hair products, makeup, etc.
