Tapeworm Diet Trend
People have tried so many things where some gave worked, and others didn’t, but we have to give credit for creative thinking. Women tried everything to stay pretty and in shape, even if it meant trying something dangerous. For ages, women have worried much about their weight and will not ease up for the near or far future. In the 20th century, a popular diet was invented where women would ingest a pill that contained tapeworm.
Tampons Of The Early Days
The hope was that the tapeworm would help with their weight loss without them having to worry about what they eat. The tapeworm would eat away on the food in the stomach, so there would not be excess to cause weight gain. However, it didn’t work as planned as the practice only ended in persons developing infections and other complicated issues.
Black Underwear to Hide Stains
Menstruation is a natural thing, and women today equip themselves with the necessary products to indulge in the best hygiene practices. “Free periods” are a big no-no of today though, in the early 1800s, it was normal for women just to let it flow. For women who lived in rural areas, they wouldn’t pay much attention to it and gave nature the ability to do as it wished. This practice led them to start wearing black underwear so the stain would not show so much.
Black Underwear To Hide Stains
In the modern age, there are period panties that are designed to absorb the extra fluid the body dispels (a great work of technology). A lot of people have resorted to using them (though a taboo) instead of using tampons and pads. Just imagine a woman having to wash her undies after a heavy-flow day.
