Dear Kotex,
I recently noticed that the peel-off strip of my pantiliner had a bunch
of "Kotex Tips for Life" on it. Annoying advice such as:

- Staying active during your period can relieve cramps.
- Avoiding caffeine may help reduce cramps and headaches.
- Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day to keep you hydrated and feeling
fresh.
- Try Kotex's other available products, blah, blah, blah.

Obviously the person behind this was someone who has never possessed a
functioning set of ovaries. Go ahead and tell a menstruating woman TO
HER FACE that drinking 6-8 glasses of water will help keep her feeling
fresh. See what happens and report back. I'll wait.

While you're at it, dump out all the coffee at work and remove the
chocolate from the vending machine. I guarantee that the first
responders will be females who just ovulated. Look, females don't need
or want tips for living on feminine hygiene products. Younger girls are
already hearing "helpful" crap like that from their elderly relatives.
Veteran females have already concocted their own recipes for survival,
many containing alcohol.

Printing out shitty advice while sneaking in ads for the brand THAT WAS
ALREADY PURCHASED, is just plain annoying, not to mention rude, and
enough to send a girl running to the 'Always' brand.

Mostly we'd like to forget that we even need these products. It's not a
fun time, so do not assume you can try to cheer us up by adding smiley
faces or bunnies or flowery cutesy crap to your products or the
packaging.
Put your product in a plain brown wrapper so we can throw it in our
grocery
carts discreetly and have it blend in among the cereal and cookie
boxes!

There is nothing more annoying than having a blinding pink package
announcing your uterine state to everyone in the store.

The ultimate goal of your product should be functional invisibility at
every stage, including at the point of purchase. So take your tips for
living actively while menstruating and shove them right up you're a$$!
Try drinking six to eight glasses of water to make you feel fresher
while you're doing it!

Ovarily Yours,

Yeah **** off, we're never buying that brand again

rofl have sent you some Karma for making me pmsl

And why don't they put your purchased sanitary wear in paper bags anymore???????????

..and why are they so bloody expensive?

Cos they're 'womens things' and we need them so they take advantage of the fact that we no longer want bits of folded up rag stuffed in our knickers during the time of the month.

....obviously 'they' are men
I think they ought to be made to wear mammoth bits of folded up rags in their y-fronts once a month.........hang about...most of 'em probably do....but not once a month

Has anyone seen the ones (can't remember the brand) that has little 'did you know' facts on them? Did you know that a duck has three eyelids and that there are two golfballs on the moon? well, I wouldn't either were it not for the information superhighway that is sanitary pads

and while you're at it, bin those god awful ads with some silly woman screeching away in the background...."made for comfort made for yooouuuuu" and her that rolls about the bed kicking off the quilt. She wants kicking, severely

So bloody funny
nice one and its just remindded me I must go and buy some of the god damm things (OH MY GOD!!!) please noooooo

Ang x

And to add injury to insult
