tampon adverts on TV.

[hobbit.]

why do they feature non males doing things like flying aeroplanes and bungee jumping?

why dont they show them doing bunny hops or star jumps naked over a sheet of white paper?

Is she chumming for sharks?

When my son was quite young, I explained to him what a period was. What was going on, why, and how it affected men.
I'm happy to report he is now 25, never been married and never had kids.
And the look of horror on his face is one of those priceless moments a father never forgets.

At the law school frat speakeasy I used them in a Bloody Mary Mondays drink promo.

Just to round out his horror, I hope you didn't fail to mention that his mother's breast milk was made with her blood, too. What a delight to watch that one sink in!

I've plugged some bullet holes with them...worked great.

Best tampon commercial ever was an unreleased TV ad by Tampax, made many years ago:

[Two boys, about age 8 or 9, go running into their room and crack open a bank after having made money at a lemonade stand. Mom listens in from the other side of the door as she's holding a laundry basket.]

Boy #1: "Wow! What'll we do with all this money? Buy candy? Toys? Video games?"

Boy #2: "Nah - I know something even better: let's buy a box of Tampax!"

Boy #1: "Tampax...um, why?"

Boy #2: "`Cause, when you have Tampax, you can ride a bike, ride a horse, jump out of a plane - "

[Noise outside the door: mom has dropped the laundry basket, and is sitting against the door, laughing hysterically]

Voiceover: "Tampax tampons. So you can ride a bike, ride a horse, jump out of a plane..."

Gotta love how tampax ads show women playing tennis, snorkelling in an exotic island paradise, and generally doing wonderfully active things.

Me: GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT CHANGING THE TV CHANNEL! RED WINE AND CHOCOLATE IS A PERFECTLY FUCKING ACCEPTABLE MEAL, YOU ASSHOLE! NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP AND HAND ME THAT HOT WATER BOTTLE!

Yours is the story I told my son.
He may never marry.

I've always wondered why they don't show a woman tossing a tampon into a lake and the lake is sucked dry. The woman looks into the camera and says "Ladies- nuff said"

It would be even better if all the fish swam up on the opposite shore, grew legs, and ran away screaming.

It would be even better if all the fish swam up on the opposite shore, grew legs, and ran away screaming.

And the fish were screaming "we will never get that smell off us!"

Oh dear lord I said that out loud.

My favourite candicame post is his description of the best tampon ad that never existed: It will feature a woman dressed in white armour leading a violent hoard, swinging her sword, decapitating her enemies, roaring VICTORY, blood splashing EVERYWHERE ... but when she emerges from the battlefield her armour remains clean and spotless! There's a voice over extolling the virtues of Acme pads and tampons...

I am going through menopause..... Best. Thing. Ever.
I've spent one week out of every month for 30 years wanting to rip someone's head off because pain. And mess. And pms. And and and and.....
Two light periods in the last 12 months.
Bliss.

I've been lucky. I have not had a period since I was 25.

If I were a woman, I'd hate you for that.

I was 29 after my third baby. I had complications and a hysterectomy.

 

[neci]

life with an IUD is nice. i have light spotting maybe once a month, and the only inconvenience is having to put on panties.

 

[evesdream]

If I were a woman, I'd hate you for that.

If men had periods, they'd boast about how long and how hard.

They'd wear tee-shirts telling everyone when they were on the rag.

They'd relish it completely and they wouldn't whine so much when they got a cold.
