Boyfriend buying tampons for his girlfriend asks whether she wants 'lemon or lime' flavour

If you are in a relationship with a person who has a menstural cycle, chances are you'll be asked to go on a tampon run at some point.

But one man who was asked to pick some up seemed to find the array of products on display a little confusing.

Brogan Paget tweeted a screenshot of the text conversation with her boyfriend, who asked her if she would like "lemon or lime" flavour tampons.

People were very amused by the question

But others needed some clarification about the difference between the two "flavours"

And some responded with their own examples of strange questions they'd been asked about tampons

The only thing we can hope about this whole episode is that Brogan's boyfriend and other men for that matter can learn that tampons do not come in different flavours.
