So, if your plumbing can’t handle it, what’s so hard about asking me not to flush it?
None of you can answer that simple fucking question. So, is it 'cause you’re lazy, or 'cause you’re stupid?
First, I have ALREADY stated that I inform people that my well-and-septic can’t handle anything other than poo, pee, and TP. So STFU about “lazy” and “stupid” in regards to my household.
Second - it’s not JUST about the plumbing of a particular toilet or building. A lot of city systems can’t handle it. There is no way in hell the average homeowner is going to be able to determine whether their local municipality’s system can deal with used tampons. So even if their home/office/whatever can deal with it, the problem may be (literally) downstream from there.
I’m sorry so many water systems don’t meet your high standards but that is reality.
But, by all means, continue to conduct yourself as have been. You clearly don’t care about whatever problems your flushing of tampons may be causing others. Your comfort and clean fingers are so much more important than anything else. At least that’s how you come across. I like to think you actually do give a damn, and it’s just news to you that most plumbing systems aren’t as good as you thought they were.
If you already inform people not to flush tampons at your house, then why the fuck do you think that “lazy” or “stupid” would apply to you, seeing as I was specifically talking about people who can’t be bothered to do that? Are you motivated and clever, yet illiterate?
How are you supposed to inform people in your home, though? Tell every woman of menstruation age not to flush them? It would never even occur to me to do so (not that I get SO much traffic).
You could laminate a little card and post it next to the toilet paper. I’ve known more than one person who’s done that.
