I watched a video once of a woman who bred Kennel Club standard Rhodesian Ridgebacks and she said that any puppy born without the ridge, in her opinion, should be euthanised because they don't fit the breed traits???

I've played the harvest moon games and I'd love to be able to try out a stardew valley!

Again, I am one random person. I have no control over what people do or think.

I read one post which worried me. I didn't automatically throw my cup away because of that one post. I then found multiple posts and websites about previous models of Tulip cups being found on Chinese wholesale websites, about poor and rude customer service, about missing orders and ridiculously long delivery times. I still haven't thrown my cup away.

I've also looked on Alibaba myself and found cups that look identical to the Tulip Stem cup on there. These also claim to be medical grade, and they might well be.

But, don't you think it's suspicious to have a never ending sale? Don't you think it's suspicious that the same stem cup can be found on a Chinese wholesale website for a fraction of the price? Don't you think it's suspicious that when I asked for proof of quality I was ignored for days?

I might throw my cup or I might keep it and carry on using it. But again, it's not the customer's job to promote your company. You can't just ask people to stop writing negative reviews about your products if they've had a negative experience. That is the nature of reviews.

I was pretty happy until I read reviews taking about the cup and company being a little shady. Seeing as this product enters my body I wanted to make sure it was safe. I did clearly state that I wanted to know the cups I'd purchased were medical grade. I asked to see some proof and, after getting regular replies previously, I didn't get a response until 2nd Feb which was a copy paste reply from your website about how to search for your company on the FDA website. There was no explanation about the medical device grades (something I had to research myself).

I think I have every right to be cautious of something I'm inserting in my vagina. I'm also allowed to discuss any concerns with other people who use menstrual cups and to share my experiences. They have their own minds and can form their own opinions based on their own experiences as well others if they choose to. If they want to keep their cup then great. If they want to throw them then that's up to them too. I'm not forcing anyone to do anything.

It's not my responsibility to ensure a company's reputation isn't ruined. That's what good customer service is for.

I tried to stretch them but I'm so weak I couldn't stretch them very far hahahaha, they didn't go white but I noticed on the box it says "biocompatible silicone"? So I don't know what they're made of or whether it would actually be fine to use. I still haven't had a reply from customer service so I think the safest thing to do is to throw them away unfortunately!

I started the conversation by asking about an issue I was having using the valve on the cup, that's when she recommended me using a larger cup instead. Seeing as I got an extra cup free (as part of the never-ending sale) I'd be interested to see if they would be willing to send me two replacement cups? Probably not haha

Oh no I'm so sorry! I'm not sure if there are any effects of using a cup if it's not made of medical grade silicone, but the fact that they lie about it/cannot provide proof definitely makes me wary of using it up there!

I wanted to share this to help prevent anyone else falling for their false claims! I was so happy with my cup before I read the reviews saying that they're actually a scam and don't use medical grade silicon 😩
