Can we just rename Tampons for them, to "Jesus Sticks", and when they have to have an uncomfortable conversation, they can just pull one out and say "You need Jesus"? Or when asking someone for one, someone can proudly proclaim "I need Jesus" to their friends.
I've gotten the seriousness out in other comments; I just had the thought, and had to share it somehow, somewhere.
They've done a good job making menstruation 'yucky'; the majority of women I know have at some point apologized to me after periods come up in group or private conversations. It's just a period, nothing to be ashamed of.
