Quoting MrsApple:I'd forgotten about that book!
Quoting makelineerror:
If you've ever read the book "Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret", they mention the horrible belt.
Quoting MrsApple:Yeah,women before the "modern days" had it BAD! Ask your mom about what she had to use!My mom told me horror stories of a belt thing they had to wear,lol.
According to south park they used tampons made out of Cherokee Hair.
