A chiropractor has invented a 'glue' for women to seal their vaginas during periods
It sounded promising - an invention that will make life easier during periods. Except, Dr Dan Dopps, a chiropractor from Kansas, claims he has invented a glue to seal a woman's vagina during menstruation. Mensez, he says, is a 'feminine hygiene lip-stick' to give women 'freedom and greater control of their lives'. He even patented the questionable product which he says is a 'safer solution' for controlling periods than other traditional methods.
His website explains how to use the "lipstick". There is curiosity, but there is mostly skepticism.
The unconventional method didn't go down well with people. "This shows your obvious ignorance of the female anatomy. But then, what do I know? I'm obviously distracted by my menses", said a woman on his website.
Even men had their issues with it
He wasn't done yet. In a screenshot (see below) of the Facebook page of Mensez, which was reportedly hacked, the developer told a critic of the product - "you as a woman, should have come up with a better solution than diapers and plugs, but you didn't".
The product is yet to hit the market.

It's 2017 and men still don't understand periods #mensez

I'm not worried about bacteria with this, no different than a cup or tampon. Am worried about labial damage! https://t.co/CW2SsdNfVs

People who don't know how vaginas/periods work shouldn't try to create menstrual products https://t.co/NUv46aX3EW #thursdaythoughts #mensez

I. Just...NO... As a guy, I'm mortified at the lack of basic anatomy on display. Also would like to point out he named it Men Says...#Mensez pic.twitter.com/ukJFPyP5id
