Try out this fun quiz: https://www.abc.net.au/news/health/2017-10-05/do-you-know-menstruation-fact-from-fiction/9010430?pfmredir=ms

Also, can you believe that this ad received 600 complaints?

https://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2019-09-18/as-standards-rule-on-period-blood-after-complaints-over-libra-ad/11521530

I get that some people are squeamish about bodily discharge, but come on.

Nothing wrong with the add, but then I generally don’t watch adds, that’s what iPads are for!

I got 9/10 on the quiz. Shocked Missed the one on volume Embarassed

I watched the ad, no issues. I also read the article. Is this person for real?

Quote:
Others were outraged the commercial was shown on TV after 7:00pm, saying that children may see the ad and ask their parents about periods.

"I am absolutely appalled that Libra has chosen when I was to talk to my seven-year-old little girl about periods," wrote one viewer.


Really? When were you planning on trying to talk to her, after she already got the lowdown from the girls at school? When she woke up screaming with blood in the bed and didn't know what was going on? Dipshit.

It would have been 8 but I took an outside chance to make things more interesting.

Well you have a vagina so it's hardly a fair fight.

I also suspect the medical training probably doesn’t hurt. Wink

Hang on a minute, using your (and ad standards) reasoning here; Condom adds would have them full of Jizz, demonstrating they don't break, Toilet paper adds would show poo on the paper and proof they're strong enough to prevent a finger going through, Cough medicine adds showing someones barfed up phlegm in the basin, toilet cleaners removing big skiddys from the pan... etc, etc, they're all only 'bodily discharge' after all.

That's actually a pretty good idea! Laughing On that note, nobody buy Kleenex brand toilet paper. Don't say I didn't warn you!

In all seriousness, squeamishness about bodily discharge is not only stupid and infantile, but it can actually be life-threatening. Check this story out from last year:
