A New Policy Against Self-Harm Blogs

One of the great things about Tumblr is that people use it for just about every conceivable kind of expression. People being people, though, that means that Tumblr sometimes gets used for things that are just wrong. We are deeply committed to supporting and defending our users’ freedom of speech, but we do draw some limits. As a company, we’ve decided that some...

becauseiamawoman:
I finally did it! I used my DivaCup, and let me tell you- there is no going back. For those of you who aren’t familiar with what it is, a DivaCup is a menstrual cup that you insert when you have your period. It catches all your menstrual blood, and when it is full you simply dump it in the toilet, rinse it out, and re-insert it!
According to their website, the DivaCup may be...
