Kotex & Breaking the Cycle

Kotex has a pretty hilarious campaign geared toward young women that tries to break stereotypes about periods that are prevalent throughout conventional ads for menstrual products. The site, U by Kotex, could be better. But the part I really like is a declaration that young women can sign to love their bodies and talk honestly about their periods without embarrassment. One of their commercials shows a woman talking about her period and kind of making fun of all of the menstrual product commercials that are out there.

I don't use disposable menstrual products- and at the end of the day, Kotex just wants to make money- but these ads are definitely a step in the right direction for advertising!

Clearly she's doing it all wrong. If she would just get on the birth control, she wouldn't have to worry have having a monthly period. According to the commercials, that's why birth control exists.

SOMETHING like that. I'm this close to unlocking its deep, dark secrets!
