"It is worth noting that although tampons (and increasingly sanitary napkins) may come individually wrapped, they are not sterilized; they are merely bleached white."

Is that true? It came from Wikipedia on an entry about menstrual cups, so it's possibly made by someone advertising for menstrual cups but...dude. Individually wrapped and unsterilized? o.0 my inner bio-geek is screaming for the hills. ::shudders and flails::

Cool. I shall read them.

::cackles:: resistance is futile.

astolat's work is always good if you want fic. Though if you're still catching up on episodes it might be best to avoid fic. Oh, and the episodes have arcs so the ideal way to watch it would be in order, because even though the plots don't have arcs the characters do, and it's facinating to watch. =)
