Ladies: why do you think sanitary belts are on the come-back trail among younger women?

I read that sanitary belt sales have tripled in the past five years to younger women. They say the belts are in colors, the pads are thin, etc. Do any women here know of anyone using the belts? Do they work well?

For the same reason garter belts and stockings are making a comeback, with younger women. Younger women are not prejudice against something they don't know about, and when the industry makes improvements they are willing to try something out for themselves.

Women have been rebelling against pantyhose for years, but the younger women are willing to try stockings and a garter belt, which have improved over the years, and are more in tune to today's active population. The same is true for sanitary belts.

Garter belts are great-wear them all the time. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/accuse_write?qid=1006051517067&kid=Qc18WTa1BWNI4D8zzz4Gt7PD.uCNhl7qMibE_kZD_ifpslkdsPZ2&s=comm&date=2006-11-08+06%3A41%3A11&.crumb=

Having grown up in the generation before self-adhering pads I have to say that in some instances I would prefer to use the sanitary belt because it feels more secure than just a self adhesive pad. However, I think I'd be happiest if I had the option of using either, and I'd probably keep both on hand.

i have not heard of this but i like the conventional sanitary towel as i kno how reliable they are! i dont know anyone who uses them and i dont think i will ever start using them!

They are absolutely fabulous! The new ones don't have any tape on them - since the belt holds them - and they fit snug, don't stick to you and are like a thong. Absolutely excellent.
