A Letter To The Makers Of Kotex! Funny... 
	
	
		Dear Kotex, 
I recently noticed that the peel-off strip of my pantiliner had a 
Bunch of "Kotex Tips for Life" on it. Annoying advice such as: 
Staying active during your period can relieve cramps. 
Avoiding caffeine may help reduce cramps and headaches. 
Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day to keep you hydrated and feeling fresh. 
Try Kotex blah blah blah other products... 
Obviously the individual behind this was someone who has never 
Possessed a functioning set of ovaries. Tell a 
Menstruating woman that drinking 6-8 glasses of water will help 
Keep her feeling fresh. Like we need more fluid inside our bloated 
Bodies from hell... but go ahead... I triple-dog-friggen-dare-ya... 
See what happens and report back. I'll wait. 
While you're at it, dump out the coffee at work and remove the 
Chocolate from the vending machine. I garan-damn-tee you that the 
First responders will be females who just ovulated. 
Staying active will relieve headaches & cramps... well guess what, 
The only activities that interest me is eating.. sleeping.. ing 
Or crying for no apparent reason.. . and oh... does ripping someone's 
Head off count as a friggen' activity?? 
Look, females don't need or want tips for living on their feminine 
Hygiene products. Younger girls are already hearing "helpful" crap 
Like that from elderly relatives. Veteran females have already 
Concocted their own recipes for survival, many containing alcohol & barbituates. 
Printing out crap advice while sneaking in ads for the brand that 
Was already purchased is just plain annoying, not to mention rude, 
And is enough to send a girl running to the Always brand. 
It's not a fun time, but DO NOT try to cheer us up by adding smiley 
Faces or bunnies or flowery cutesy crap to your products or the 
Packaging. Put the crap in a plain brown wrapper so we can throw it 
In our carts discreetly and have it blend in among the wine and beer. 
There is nothing more annoying than having a blinding pink package 
Announcing your uterine state to everyone in the store. Why don't 
You just add an in-store microphone to the damn package& announce 
That... helloooo, another female in the store is on the rag!! 
So take your tips for living and your cute bunnies & the smiley 
Faces and shove them right up your @$$! 
P.S. How about adding a free sample of Pamprin & maybe a shot of 
Vodka to your packages instead? Might go a long way! 
Respectfully,
Penny Marie Sampson (PMS)
