"Be unstoppable" is a pretty funny thing to write on a tampon.

Her response was pretty fearless. I hope he replied, “Atta girl!”

Or "That's the spirit!".

What focus group convinced them that trite inspirational messages on tampons was a good idea?

[–] Shou@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

White women. Same goes for quotes/questioms on tea bags. And zodiac crap. It's all the same target group.

Image transcription:

[An image composed of text at the top, followed by two pictures, each described as follows:

text: "Sometimes I text my wife the motivational quotes from her tampon when she has her period to try and cheer her up

picture 1: Three tampon packages. Each one is labelled with a different motivational quote.They read "Live fearlessly!", "Walk like a champion.", and "Be unstoppable."

picture 2: a screenshot of an imessage conversation. The first message, blue, reads "Live fearlessly". The second message, grey, reads "I swear to god, go fuck yourself"]

end image transcription.
