It took me aaaaages to realise what this baffling advert was referring to. How mentally draining it must have been being a woman in the 1940s...and how annoying when there were LOADS of very Un-coy adverts about really gross things in nearly every issue of The Orcadian:
 |
| Flatulence! |
 |
| Eww Warts! |
 |
| Constipation! |
 |
| "It just decays in your bowels..." |
How are the words 'sanitary' and 'towel' worse than 'wart', 'bowel' or the phrase 'two pints of bile flowing freely'?
Give me a roaring woman jumping out of a plane any day.
All adverts taken from 1947 editions of The Orcadian
