The Fanny-Fashion Reusable Refresh



Fanny loves the Autumn - golden leaves, the brisk air and that glorious back to school feeling when you buy loads of new stationery with sharp pencils, pens that aren't yet splodgy and beautifully untouched notebooks that haven't been defaced with doodles or the words 'I'm bored' scrawled over and over again in long meetings with the Marketing team (just Fanny?).  It's out with the old and in with the new and the fresh and the crisp and the clean.

Period Poverty: A Stain on Society



Fanny asks you to think back a little.  Remember life before the general election? When politics was all Brexit-y and you thought that was the real low point? And then the election happened and we realised the depths we had left to plumb?  Yeah - before all that….?

Reusable Pads: Fanny's Myth Busters


When Fanny told her friends she was starting a blog about reusable sanitary wear, their reactions ranged from mildly bemused to light vomiting. This was to be expected - not everyone has such an enlightened and pleasingly-clothed vagina as Fanny.  Not being one to be deterred by a little mockery in the face of seemingly left-field apparel choices for the nether regions, Fanny will now attempt to address some of the objections raised mid vom....

Attack of the Robot Fannies: Technology and Menstruation


You've really got to admire the balls on chiropractor-come-menstruation technologist Daniel Dopps.  When Fanny read about his plans to help women deal with menstrual bleeding by gluing up their fannies, she laughed so hard some wee came out. Or it would have done if her bits weren't glued up. Really, this guy actually makes Gwyneth Paltrow's foray into vaginal steaming look pretty amateur on nut-o-meter.

Disposable sanitary pads - a heartfelt breakup letter



Dear disposable sanitary pads,

I’m leaving you. I cheated on you with reusables and found my muff’s true love.
