Why is it in every tampon commercial...

...all the women are smiling while talking about "wings" and "applicators"?

I wasn't even thinking about this when I started this post, by my roommate's girlfriend had her Pomeranian puppy over the other day and it was in heat and "bleeding" (I guess I didn't even think dogs did that cause every cat/dog I've been around has been spayed - I know, I'm dumb)...anyways, she had made a "diaper" out of the dog's sweater with saftey pins so that the dog wouldn't bleed all over the place. So gross....neutral

You wanna know what's REALLY gross?

Some of those same commercials talk about leakage and odor if a woman stands up from a sitting position too fast.

lol

Although I know this happens, I don't need a commercial to let me know.

Have you ever seen the tampon commercials where they just come up to some poor helpless female in the drug store isle? (which you know aren't realistic commercials cause we'd be in our seatpants and would probly punch someone running up to us with a camera.) lol lol

Really, those commercials can be sooooo insulting to women's intelligence. The worst ones seem to be for douches. I remember seeing ads when I was younger where two women would be sitting at the breakfast table:

Younger Woman: Mom, will using a douche make me feel more comfortable?

Older woman pulls a douche out from under the table

Older Woman: Well honey, I use Summer's Eve!!!



WTF????? Is this normal for women when guys aren't around?? Do y'all always bring douches to the table?? What was the mother doing with it under the table?? Was she douching during breakfast?? omfg


Another ad featured a young woman, with her hands behind her back, talking to her mother:

Young Woman: Hey mom! Guess which hand has effective douche control in it???
Seriously, do y'all play such bizzare games when men are away??

Is it really even necessary to advertise these products??? I mean, if you have need of them, don't you just go to the store??? It seems to me that most women find these ads even more embarrassing than men do.
