Man Invents a Lipstick That Glues ‘WOMANHOOD’ to Block Blood Flow During Menstrual Period… Controversy ensues

A physician has made an invention to take care of women’s menstrual period and it is causing ripples around the world.

Akansas (USA) based chiropractor, Dr. Daniel Dopps, has invested a ‘feminine lipstick’ that seals together the labia minora to hold in period blood, The Punch reports.

The labia minora, also known as the inner labia, inner lips, vaginal lips or nymphae, are two flaps of skin on either side of the human vaginal, opening in the vulva.

The inventor calls his device Mensez.

Explaining how the device works, Dopps describes it as “An adhesive ‘lipstick’ that is applied to a woman’s lady parts to block their menstruation. And it comes undone when the woman urinates.”

Writing on his LinkedIn profile, Dopps states, “Mensez feminine lipstick is a natural patented compound of amino acids and oil in a lipstick applicator that is applied to the labia minora and causes them to cling together in a manner strong enough to retain menstrual fluid in the vestibule above the labia minora where the vaginal opening and urethra exit.

“The Mensez compound is instantly washed away with urine, which releases the menstrual fluid along with the urine into the toilet every time a woman urinates. No pads or tampons are needed. Safe, secure and clean.”

The application causes the lady parts to stick together, and strong enough to prevent leakage until the user urinates.

The urine instantly unsticks the labia and allows everything to wash out into the toilet.

Meanwhile, the invention has attracted acerbic reactions from females the world over:

Did you skip class the day they taught female reproductive anatomy?

Dude! Really? I am simply speechless. Please do a study of female anatomy and then invent something worth our use!

Natalie Stockard

So much FAIL.

Wow. Does this man even have the beginnings of an idea/clue of female anatomy? Based on this “product” of his and his comments, I would have to say absolutely not! MR. Dopps, might I suggest that just because YOU find a woman’s menstrual cycle to be “gross, crusty, smelly and incredibly awful” (your words, not mine), this cycle is a part of every woman’s life …

This has to be fake. So, to stop a period you glue yourself shut? Did this guy get his doctorate from the internets??

Even as a male, I’m speechless this is on LinkedIn and not on The Onion. Why do men think they are qualified to solve such problems?

So…have you ever heard of Toxic Shock Syndrome….or what? Have you considered that particularly heavier flow days would just dissolve that adhesive with the first sneeze, or just the act of standing upright after sitting/lying down? Also on the topic of heavier flow days, would it just trickle out from the behind, or would I need to glue the entire line from my crotch… See more

Congratulations! You are officially more qualified to be a doctor than he is.

There’s so much wrong with this Dan. I think you missed or completely flunked out of anatomy class or you confused archaic 19th century anatomy with up to date information. Please do us all a favor and stick to your day job. I also find it funny how in your response (which was unnecessarily defensive) to this ridiculous product you call menstruation ‘gross’ etc., this speak…

I read an article about this product ‘shared’ on FB. I didn’t believe it could be real. I legit though it was an “Onion” article or something. Wow. I just can’t even. And your comments about women being “distracted” 1/4 of the time, whoa there buddy. Do you think I’m ‘distracted’ now? Because I’ve had a hysterectomy, so therefore I’m “immune” to this distraction plaguing ot…

Can I use this to glue my husband’s equipment to his leg for instant (alternative) birth control! It’s obvious that this will work, but would you do the honors of being my first test subject so we have a study to show to the naysayers? Fox News is already interested in announcing my findings. Let’s get it glued down before word gets out!

So can I use this if I got into pre-term labor in place of a cervical cerclage? I mean, I have played a doctor and a nurse multiple times on TV, so I guess I am as qualified if not more so than you to make that call. Please stick to cracking necks and leave our vulvas be. KTHX.
