Somebody Draped Baby over a Piano Bench

The second half of our BEST commercials and print ads for feminine hygiene products. This one is better, we promise. Join us at Camp Gyno where periods are celebrated. Laugh with Kotex as they make fun of themselves over the years. Be inspired by the warrior women in BodyForm’s Blood Normal campaign as they eat it on waves, trip on running paths, take punches in the ring, only to get back up and get after harder because “no blood should hold us back.” The 2010s ushered in empowering ads and tampon/pad packaging so bright they could pass for Easter eggs.https://anchor.fm/blameitonthevag/episodes/Somebody-Draped-Baby-Over-a-Piano-Bench-ec4qg4

Your Vag: Friend or Enemy?

Helene isn’t feeling the love for her Vag, Besties! We had to get to the bottom of her disdain for her vulva. From neighborhood blow jobs to roast beef sandwiches, we peeled it back layer by layer until she declared “all vaginas are beautiful, including my own!” Join us for your poll results and see how many people are besties with their vulva versus frenemies!

Nobody Makes Baby Wear a Tampon

Old timey ads and commercials promised us feminine hygiene products that were discreet, convenient, and a solution to our “problem.” They were also condescending, ridiculous, and laugh out loudable (totally a word). Join your Vagina Besties as we roll out the best (and by that we mean WORST) feminine hygiene print ads and commercials. Why is everyone wearing white? How many cats is too many? and What’s really in that plain, brown wrapped box Karen just picked up from the drugstore? 




Extra Period

No one likes an extra period. Unless it’s with your vagina besties! This extra is all you, listener. You emailed us, you posted on our Facebook page, you told us in person at the gym. We listened and now we’re sharing (with your permission, of course)!
