A jet-setter has been hailed a "genius" after sharing a hack to avoid paying extra baggage fees. In a viral TikTok circulating across the platform, Julie Waters (@dance.likenooneswatching) sported a fishing vest as part of her airport outfit filled with extra items to see whether she could successfully board the flight. The savvy traveller claimed to have packed a week's worth of clothes in the vest while flying with Spirit Airlines. "No one batted an eye, but a friend did make a comment that someone could have thought you were some kind of crazy Unabomber-type person so that would be the biggest downside," she told the Wall Street Journal. "What I really want to try is the pillowcase one, where instead of a pillow it’s full of clothes."

Period sex isn’t for everyone, and we totally get that. I have symptoms like cramping, nausea, and migraines that don’t lend themselves to feeling in the mood, and that’s not even taking into account the red mess it creates.

The sexual wellness brand is encouraging masturbation positivity all month long (in honor of May Masturbation month), and that includes during your period week. Because of Nixit’s enthusiasm, I am willing to try it…if only I can make it easier or less messy. And according to information about the brand’s lube bundle, I totally can.
