Look Back *Giggle* For Today

When was the last time you saw these lying around your floor's stock/supply room?

O_O Oh my word, I think I'm going to have to pass on douching with Lysol hahaha! I also think I'd need to trade in a hubby who cared so much about whether I smell like peaches and perfumes downstairs .

Give the Lysol a go, you never know what floats a man's boat these days. *LOL* You can push the envelope further by wearing "whites" afterwards around the house. The combination of the wafting scent of carbolic/phenol plus the sight of a nursing uniform? You may not be left in peace for the duration.

Listerine for birth control, yeah, right. My younger brother had three or four classmates whose moms, all friends in the neighborhood, all used the same thing our mom did for contraception. Probably Listerine. :)

Oh my dear girl that is only but a tiny fraction! *LOL*

Feminine hygiene products are a multi-billion worldwide industry much of it designed by western males fascination (and some would say attempts to control or at least impose order) over female's nether regions.

Douches, deodorants, perfumes, powders, waxes, razors, etc.. and most recently hair coloring (either to cover grey and or change color to anything from neutral darks to flaming red), all marketed to *cure* a supposed problem. Or, make females feel like social piranhas if they didn't fall into line.

Lysol and Listeriene were marketed to married women (as unmarried weren't supposed to be having relations thus concerned with odors "down there") as a douche for both hygiene and birth control purposes. The former was very much promoted by a top OB/GYN of the day for those reasons and use during delivery (hands were wiped with Lysol before being introduced into the birth canal).

Douche with Lysol Brand Disinfectant - and Keep Your Husband Happy!

Museum of Menstruation and Women's Health

^Just WOW, DoGood...I knew about the male fascination with our personal "goodies," but I did not know there was a museum of mensturation!

Well don't know if it tis museum or other collectors but there is a market for vintage lady's days items. On eBay and elsewhere someone or something is paying good money for old boxes of sanitary napkins and belts.
