    There's a difference here though... If someone doesn't want to see blood they can choose not to watch a show about surgeons, but the advert could come on during a show that doesn't involve any gore.

    Ah but can choose to either watch or avoid watching greys anatomy if you're squeamish, but you can't choose when an advert might appear, perhaps when you're eating.

    We have a term "the watershed" for the time of night after which unsuitable for children programs might be shown. Even later than that used to be sanitary wear adverts. We used to call it "the bloodshed"

    I guess it's because so people don't like the sight of blood and they cant avoid it on an ad but I've always wondered, how do people who hate the sight of blood deal with a period?

    I was seven or eight, at Grandma's house. We were playing Barbies. I was so embarrassed to change Barbie's clothes in front of Grandma, because she could see Barbie's plastic parts.

    They are saying you can be an executive or a mom/wife/housecleaner/etc and still be a strong, independent woman. As a mom, it can be seen as a working mom versus a stay at home mom both being equal, too.

    If you're getting small messages from the bladder after you've crawled in bed, it's best to get up and get it over with because it's going to bail you out of bed in 2-3 hours anyway. But by then it's going to be pitching a frantic fit.

    Unfortunately, that is what often happens. With acne medications, creams, and washes, your skin will sometimes "purge" impurities before it gets better.
