Why women chafe and why nobody is talking about it - by Nellie’s Lane

Chafing isn’t glamourous but neither is suffering in silence.

Let’s be honest: chafing is one of those topics every woman knows, but almost no one wants to talk about. It’s uncomfortable, a bit embarrassing, and not something you like to bring up at brunch. But here’s the truth — women of every shape, size, age and lifestyle experience chafe. It’s not a “body issue.”

IT’S A HUMAN ISSUE.

Our inner thighs touch! THERE, I said it. They touch, they rub, the friction causes chafe and chafe HURTS.

Well, not anymore. At Nellie’s Lane, we’re bringing this conversation out in the open — because comfort shouldn’t be a secret.

Almost every woman I have ever spoken to regarding this has admitted that they struggle with chafe, even those who don’t, said they felt “exposed or unprotected” when wearing skirts.

Some poignant comments:-

“I hate wearing short skirts on public transport, I feel like it’s dirty”

“I don’t feel protected wearing a skirt during ‘that time of the month’”

“I love wearing skirts to festivals, but I hate not being able to sit down on the grass without having to hide myself with my bag or jacket”

“Since having kids, I tend not to wear skirts as I’m constantly bending over”

Until Nellie’s Lane was born, there were no real solutions to these problems except for us women to live in shorts, jeans or leggings.

If you can relate to any of the following things, then you need to become part of the Nellie Family.

·        You avoid wearing skirts because of the burn.

·         You pack ‘emergency’ bike shorts when you go out in a skirt OR wear them under your skirt and hate the feeling of 3 waistbands (Undies, shorts, skirt)

·        Carry talcum powder in your handbag when you go out in a skirt.

·        You’ve tried to walk with your skirt between your legs.

It’s time to be chafe-free.
