butch tampons

[anotheranon]

There is no such thing, but there's an LJ discussion about the woeful lack of marketing to the non-girly-girl consumer who, dammit, has periods too! (courtesy misia).

If I am ostepathically bullied into re-joining the "once a month" club, I'd be SO all over "Blackbeard the Pirate's Rugged Tampons! Fer pluggin' th' bloody hole afor' th' sharks smell ye!" No more of the frilly pink shit!

here in Sweden we have Ellen. at least it is blood-red all around, and contains some kind of good bacteria which keeps life, the Universe and everything lese in balance. I like to think of it as anti-pastell :) I would be great if they could have the package and advertising in pirate-black though ;)

If you can't have pirate black, blood-red is the most appropriate packaging colour for tampons. Bet in Sweden the advertisers actually ADMIT what the things are FOR too. :P
