Why is it a taboo for a guy to buy tampons for their girlfriends?

I guess some men try to stay away from anything that has to do with periods. Maybe because it freaks them out, grosses them out, or they simply do not understand them. I think it’s more the latter, so talking about it with your partner should solve any misunderstandings about periods 🙂

I agree with Beka.. sometimes they dont understand them so for example they go to the supermarket and they see endless types of pads or tampons, they don’t really know what a period is, let alone how their gf’s period is.. so i guess its pretty complicated. They dont know if youre a heavy bleeder or light.. or if you like them with a certain smell.. or any other specification.. so i dont think it’s a taboo its just that they dont know what to buy and to the naked eye it looks pretty complicated
