She had to go to an OB to have it removed and it scared the bejeezus out of her (and me.) I'm not saying it's a bad product, but buyers beware!

I had bought some Kotex, which I don't normally use, and chanced on the side panel which has "helpful" info on what size tampon you should use when. The guide to help you determine how heavy your flow is, is in...grams. You know, because we've all WEIGHED it before! I immediately had a vision of a woman sitting on the toilet with a cupped hand waiting for...how long? Oh who knows? Because the package doesn't say how many grams per length of time either!<br /><br />The husband asked me how I would explain it - "Easy," I said. "If the time from feeling it comin' to 'shit I have to change my clothes now!' is less than a second, that's a 'super' or a 'maxi super.' If it's easier to wash out my panties than be bothered with using anything, that's a panty liner day." That's how we know what size tampon to use P&G! Someone in their marketing department is clueless!<br /><br />2. Speaking of marketing - the other thing I wanted to say was that while I liked your end rant about not having all this negative crap foisted on us by ad campaigns, *we* need to stop buying it too. The reason companies use these strategies is because they work, and that's kind of our fault. Yes, we're programmed to want to be pleasing, but we really need to take responsibility for ourselves and learn to ignore the bs of bad advertising. <br /><br />One of the best ways I've found to feel great about myself when I'm consuming (which I think is key to this - you don't compulsively buy orange lipstick to make you prettier if you're already feelin' fine) is to take a great friend along with you when you shop. She can help shield you from the crap. But you also have to believe her when she says "damn woman! You look so hot I'd hit on you!!" :)Kathlynhttp://www.bakelikeaninja.comnoreply@blogger.com
