The Tampon Story

May 7th, 2008 by Evil Beet


Okay, you’re right, I’m totally telling my tampon story. Because it’s the funniest story ever, and I was inspired by Moe over at Jezebel so fearlessly telling her tampon story.

The story is after the jump.

Please note: if you are my grandfather or father, do not jump in. Please.

Alright. So I’m 16 years old, and I have this boyfriend who is very sweet and remains one of my dearest friends to this day. We’ll call him Josh for now, although that is not his name, but he will die if I say his name here, and plenty of people who know him will figure out that this is him anyway and give him endless shit about it, so, for the record, I’m sorry, “Josh.”

Josh’s parents are out of town and I’m spending the night at his house. I’m menstruating, and I have a tampon in. We start making out on his bed, and he starts to take off my clothes, and I’m like, “Josh, no, I’m on my period.” And he’s plenty upset about this, but he’s finally like, “Okay, fine, let’s just get naked and go play in my parents’ jacuzzi tub.”

His parents have this large jacuzzi tub in their bathroom, so we take our clothes off and get into the tub, where we promptly start making out again. I’m sure this was all part of his grand scheme to get laid that night, because one thing leads to another, and he’s a teenage boy, and before I know it we are fully having sex in the bathtub (and, yes, I was on birth control). So we’re doing this for about a minute before I’m like “Fuck! My tampon!” And he’s like, “Oh, right, go ahead and take it out.”

He pulls out so I can remove the tampon, which I attempt to do, and it’s at that point that I realize that I can’t find the string. The string is nowhere to be found. In fact, the entire tampon is absolutely nowhere to be found. The tampon is MIA. Now, I’m 16 years old, so I’m not particularly well-versed in the details of the female anatomy. I have no idea where the tampon is at this point. I am fairly convinced that it is now in my stomach, working its way up into my lungs, where it will begin to suffocate me and Josh will have to rush me to the hospital and they’ll call my parents and I’ll be naked and dripping wet in an ER trying to explain to my father how a used tampon became lodged in my lungs. I am terrified.

Josh is like “Look harder!” And I’m like “I’m trying!!” and after a bit more unsuccessful fumbling and total freaking out on my part, he’s like, “Oh my God. I’m going in!” And he has this really determined look on his face, like a man gets when he’s about to lift something very heavy. I had this mental image of him putting on a little miner’s hat with a light on the top and heading in to excavate. So Josh takes a deep breath and begins searching my vaginal cavity for the missing tampon. This continues for about thirty uncomfortable seconds before he’s like “I got it!” And he carefully removes the tampon, bloody and dripping wet, and hands it to me.

At this point, I am so overwhelmed with relief that I just do what comes instinctively: the tampon is wet, so I ring it out over the bathtub. Josh is like “What the fuck!!” and he jumps out of the tub. And then I realize what I’ve done, and I’m like “Holy crap!” and I jump out of the tub, too. And we’re both standing there staring at this gross, bloody bathwater with a tampon floating in it and he’s like, “Um, you’re pulling out the plug” and I’m like “Yeah, that’s fair.” So we drain and clean the tub, toss out the tampon, and go to bed.

Funniest shit ever. Needless to say, I never made that mistake again.

    Okay, okay… since Beet gave me the ‘go ahead’ I’ll tell the story… This happened about 5 years ago. After having a fantastic session of wild monkey sex, my guy got up to go discard the condom that was no longer where we had placed it. So, he freaked out and kept silent about it for like freaking two days.Unbeknownst to me, I just went about my usual days with a condom tucked up in my slave maker ( that’s what I call my vagina.I think it’s a much cooler term then others out there).
    He calls me at my fire station on the second day and asked me if I received any “surprises”.Knowing the power of my slave maker and also a true romantic, I assumed he sent me some flowers at work..so I was like no, but I’ll keep an eye out.
    Long story short, he broke down and told me two nights later. I have to say I was a bit pissed. Since I was at his house when he told me, immediatley I decided to go searching for this thing on my own and without his assistance. I did use his toothbrush to probe my innards, so I guess he kind of helped ,unbeknownst to him..( Don’t worry, I didn’t use the bristle side)
    Anywho, I didn’t locate it. I did the squat and cough thing, still nothing. So we figured that it must be in the bedding or it must have vaporized during the wild monkey sex session. We laughed it off and that was that.
    So, like another week goes by and I’m at my station again. I was peeing when we got an alarm, I rushed out and I forgot to flush. That’s right my people, when we returned to station, the lost condom mystery will have been solved. One of my crew members came across the unsettling scene. Since we have unisex bathrooms everyone was wondering who it belong to and who was engaging in sex while on duty…( cricket sounds) …
    I never owned up to it… Hey, I was the only chick in the station. I have a reputation to uphold…
    I know, I know… I said I was going to make a long story short. It just never works out that way.

    Yup… glad I’m gay….

  10. Cooter says:

    Lmfao! That story is BRILLIANT!

  11. Sharon says:

    Josh seems like a real trooper . . . how many guys do you know (especially at that age) who would be willing to go on a rescue mission like that?

    OK, I’m glad to see I’m not the only one with a lost condom story. After separating after twenty years of marriage, I of course decided to practice safe sex on my first outing with a man other my husband. Having completed the dirty deed, yes, you guessed it, couldn’t find the condom. We looked for it briefly but no luck, and I figured it just got caught in the sheets. After my new guy left I made a more detailed search of pillowcases, sheets, under the bed, crack between headboard and mattress and becoming increasingly frantic the overhead ceiling fan, you know just in case. The next day he called and asked if I found it and I lied and said yes. By this point I began to suspect he had taken it with him for fear I would get busy with the turkey baster or something. Anyway about 2 days went by before the light bulb went off and sure enough after some uncomfortable poking around I finally found it. Want to know the really funny/sad part of the story? I WAS 40 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME!!!

    On my 19 birthday party with my first boyfriend, at my house, we went and hade sex in one bathroom. I had my tampon on, and I did it anyways (I was totally drunk).
    The next day I didn’t remember and I put on another tampon.
    Well.. a few days later, when I was removing one I realised that I had 2 tampons inside, not one!!!
    hahaha

    At least you remembered to take it out, my roommate left one in, had sex, got 102 degree fever, and was in the hospital for 2 days

    Good storytelling, Beet. I actually held off on reading the “Tampon Story” because I was worried that it would be too off-putting for my saintly male ears. But your linking to the “Josh” text stirred my curiosity. You told the story well and made it compelling, and not gross. Still, I’m going to lay off of sex for a while. Unfortunately, that won’t be any great change to my ‘08.
