I agree speki4eyes. And the thing that worries me about the incontinence pads advert is that it sends a message that this is normal for women. (unless very elderly). It isn't normal and medical help is needed. Instead of buying the pants, first consult a doctor and get treatment.

I know I should post this somewhere appropriate but the sheer effort of finding something relevant is tedious.

I just want to vent about the Kleenex advert where a young woman openly sneezes into the lens of the camera. I have a horror of people sneezing without a tissue or handkerchief and this advert sickens me so much that I have to look away or switch off.
Also the one for incontinence pads where the actor claims to be "releasing her pee, letting it all go!"
Do we really have to be disgusted by these gross and offensive adverts, which in my case, only make me vow NEVER to buy that product?
