Have a happy Period!
I always see these comercials and do this  Who has a happy period
AN OPEN LETTER TO
> MR. JAMES THATCHER,
> BRAND MANAGER,
> PROCTER & GAMBLE.
> Dear Mr. Thatcher,
>
> I have been a loyal user of your Always maxi pads for over 20 years,
> and I appreciate many of their features. Why, without the LeakGuard
> Core(tm) or Dri-Weave(tm) absorbency, I'd probably never go horseback
> riding or salsa dancing, and I'd certainly steer clear of running up and down
> the beach in tight, white shorts. But my favorite feature has to be
> your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on being the only company smart
> enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi pads be aerodynamic. I
> can't tell you how safe and se cure I feel each month knowing there's a
> little F-16 in my pants.
>
> Have you ever had a menstrual period, Mr. Thatcher? Ever suffered from
> "the curse"? I'm guessing you haven't. Well, my "time of the month" is
> starting right now. As I type, I can already feel hormonal forces
> violently surging through my body. Just a few minutes from now, my
> body will adjust and I'll be transformed into what my husband likes to
> call "an inbred hillbilly with knife skills." Isn't the human body
> amazing?
>
> As brand manager in the feminine-hygiene division, you've no doubt
> seen quite a bit of research on what exactly happens during your
> customers' monthly visits from Aunt Flo. Therefore, you must know
> about the bloating, puffiness, and cramping we endure, and about our
> intense mood swings, crying jags, and out-of-control behavior. You
> surely realize it's a tough ti me for most women. In fact, only last
> week, my friend Jennifer fought the violent urge to shove her
> boyfriend's testicles into a George Foreman Grill just because he told
> her he thought Grey's Anatomy was written by drunken chimps. Crazy!
> The point is, sir, you of all people must realize that America is just
> crawling with homicidal maniacs in capri pants. Which brings me to the
> reason for my letter.
>
> Last month, while in the throes of cramping so painful I wanted to
> reach inside my body and yank out my uterus, I opened an Always maxi
> pad, and there, printed on the adhesive backing, were these words:
> "Have a Happy Period."
>
> Are you f#*cking kidding me?
>
> What I mean is, does any part of your tiny middle-manager brain really
> think happiness-actual smiling, laughing happiness-is possible during
> a menstrual period? Did anything mentioned ab ove sound the least bit
> pleasurable? Well, did it, James? FYI, unless you're some kind of sick
> S&M freak girl, there will never be anything "happy" about a day in
> which you have to jack yourself up on Motrin and Kahlúa and lock
> yourself in your house just so you don't march down to the local
> Walgreens armed with a hunting rifle and a sketchy plan to end your
> life in a blaze of glory. For the love of God, pull your head out,
> man. If you just have to slap a moronic message on a maxi pad,
> wouldn't it make more sense to say something that's actually
> pertinent, like "Put Down the Hammer" or "Vehicular Manslaughter Is
> Wrong"? Or are you just picking on us?
>
> Sir, please inform your accounting department that, effective
> immediately, there will be an $8 drop in monthly profits, for I have
> chosen to take my maxi-pad business elsewhere. And though I will
> ce rtainly miss your Flexi-Wings, I will not for one minute miss your
> brand of condescending ********. And that's a promise I will keep.
> Always.
>
> Best,
>
> Wendi Aarons
> Austin, TX

Re: Have a happy Period!
People who do not have vaginas should never have opinions on periods. Maybe THAT should be a message worth reading!
