We like to hear of women doing awesome stuff in the world. It is just icing on the cake when they happen to enjoy the comfort of GladRags alternative menstrual products at the same time! Here's a testimonial from one group of adventursome GladRags devotees:

We're Rachel, Carla, and Jess, three botany field interns at Death Valley National Park. img_3467.JPGWe plot vegetation throughout the park and spend most of our time in the wilderness. The menstrual cup makes our lives easier.
After spending a week or more in the field, the idea of carrying around our bloody disposable products in order to pack them out of pristine wilderness areas seems unpleasant. There's the smell, which is not only foul for us, but also attracts animals like mountain lions and coyotes. We already have compost stinking up our gear. With cups, we don't have to carry around a period's supply of disposables in our already limited space and we don't have to triple bag the used items with more disposable things to take home and add to our local landfill. As far as comfort goes, in the harsh desert climate the cup makes the most sense. The desert's dry already, we're glad we don't have to shove dry tampons up our 'ginas. Gladrags, thanks for offering us a great deal on menstrual alternatives. You've certainly improved our lives for the better!
