Answer #2

okay when your in the shower you arent leaking… WHY? oh I know that one! because your in water.. ull be fine. HOPE you HAD FUNN! :D

Answer #3

Well, I’ve been a competitive swimmer for 10 years. You should at least try a tampon. ‘Cause if the day is inconvenient and you’re heavy, then there’s no real way of getting out of it. I wouldn’t trust going without.

(If you wear one, CHECK THE STRING EVERY HOUR. Oh god it saves you embarassment.)
