This post is for us girls, though guys are certainly welcome to read it - but, no offense, I'm not sure I want to hear your comments on the matter. I'm looking for the voices of experience here.Have you seen the ad for Always feminine products? The one that ends with a voice over from a woman with an incredibly unrealistic zen-like voice (given the circumstances) saying, "Have a Happy Period."
I don't know a woman alive who is happy at all during that period (pardon the pun). It is the most miserable act of clockwork ever conceived and I always feel incredibly insulted every time that Always ad assaults the airwaves and condescends to women everywhere with its fabricated marketing mumbo jumbo. It makes me think that there's no way a woman could have possibly worked on that ad campaign, but that wouldn't make any sense. It's all about feminine products!! Corporate would have had to get a feminine point of view in order to create the campaign, so how could this insult possibly be the end result? Have a happy period?!
I know we don't all suffer equally, but they don't call it the curse for nothing.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Inquiring minds want to know!!
xoxo,
bex
