I ordered 3 pairs of the underwear and I wish I had read the reviews first. I am not sure who in the world enjoys sitting in their own filth until they can change but that's what we're talking about here. The glory of pads and tampons is you can change them. Are we supposed to be walking around with several pairs of underwear in our purse? I am confused why anyone would think this is better? I compare this to wearing a very dirty diaper you can't change until you get home... have a shower and clean yourself. This whole "can hold 8 tampons of liquid" is just ridiculous. Within 2 hours of wearing the underwear meant for heavy flow, I had leaked everywhere. I ordered a small and they are way too big. Just gross and all around wrong. Period.
