Okay Here goes we have all dreaded the red spot on the skirt. When I was a teenager I was a glamour model. One afternoon I was happily posing away scantily dressed when one of the photographers gently pointed out that my period had started because blood was trickling down my leg After I cleaned myself up I was able to laugh it off but wondered how many others had experienced embarassment from the monthly flow.

Hmm I don't recall any but sort of related is when I was in bed with a new lover and thought I had started my period but no, he had actually torn his penis and had to be rushed to Accident and Emergency. He had a bandage applied and then surgery to repair the tear.

Bex What a coincidence that also happened to me and the blood went everywhere. I had been slightly over enthusiastic. However I am now married to the guy and we still giggle over it. Jacks

Fortunately I have managed to scrape through life without any major period embarrassment, but I was always really paranoid that something would "leak" out, especially as a teenager in high school with all those hairy legged boys hanging around...lol.....
However, your post has given me an idea for another topic "your most embarrassing moment". I have a doozie, but I'll have to summon up the courage to post about it because I still cringe when I think about it....lol....

Mine was when my periods started. Got home from school, having travelled a fair distance on the bus, went to the loo & nearly passed out from shock because there was blood everywhere. I hadn't got a clue as my Mum had told me nothing. I still feel sick when I imagine sitting in a pool of blood and not realising!

Mine was my very first period aged 11...my Mum died when I was 8 and my Dad never told me anything (old fashioned I suppose back then).
When it came i thought I was dying!!!
Screamed the hosue down, Dad came running & he was mortfied. He scooted around it a bit, bless him & went to the shops to get me sanitary towels. (the kind of man he was I can imagine he was traumatised having to go to the shop for these).
It was never spoken of again, I found out the rest along the way!! I was so ashamed I couldnt look at him for weeks.

At least there was a reason for you not knowing, Stumpy. My mum had bought sanitary towels & a belt for me, but hadn't been able to pass on the actual information. I thought I was dying as well; the next day I was given a book to read and was told "you are a woman now" and that was it, really.....the sum total of my sex education.
Well done to your dad for going to get you the necessary, though. I have a hang up about this even now. I've never asked my husband to buy tampons etc for me - I'd have to be bedridden before I would ask him to do so.

Mine wasn't actually mine, if that makes sense it was someone elses. It was when the kids where young during the school holidays & a few mums and 2 of the Dad's had gone to one of those indoor ball park thingies. My poor friend was wearing white trousers and she had the sudden realisation that she had started flooding she sort of managed to communicate this to me somehow & then she got me to do a kind of bizzare walk behind her to cover her backside - goodness knows what we looked like - somekind of pushmepullyou. Its years ago but I think she shielded her front with her bag. We were walking so close together, you couldn't have got a fag paper between us. People must have known something was wrong and I was struggling not to tred all over the back of her feet and trip us both up, the place was packed as well. We did manage to do this bizarre walk right out to the car park where she managed to find a cardi to sort of tie around her waist, so that she could go back in and then make her excuses and leave. I think if the two Dads hadn't been there she might have fessed up, but it would have still been difficult getting out of such a packed place - what a nightmare for her, as she would have been seeing the people involved on a daily basis at the school gates for a few years to come. xxxx
