Do the Feminine product commercials have to be so f-ing ridiculous?

There is always the pad, panty liners, tampon etc ad with young girls wearing white pants dancing all over the place. They are all dolled up with great lighting telling the young girls how having your periods is cool. Nothing like great marketing glib to make you buy ridiculous products which promise heaven but in reality aren’t all that special. They forget to mention the cramps, the bloating and the many trips to the bog to constantly check if things are cool. (btw men that’s the reason why women sometimes go to the loo in groups, if anyone needs a tampon she will be assisted and maybe even get some bascopan (sp) for the pain). No one even tells you how them ‘booma clot’ sometimes leak at the sides when the meeting at the office takes too long or during the road trip where there is no loo in sight. Just you try to wear white pants during your periods then see if your ass won’t look like the flag of some Asian country whose name escapes me now.

They always insist of saying shit like blah blah brought to you by *insert brand here*. Or it has wings but it don’t fly. Am tired of lying to my nephews and nieces when babysitting what exactly those “things” are. My friend told his son what a pad is. During one of the many commercials he turns to me and tells me that pads in pampers ya wamama. Clever mama right there!
