That material struck me as odd too. Have you bought any? I haven't. But the add looks like its some memory foam type absorbable. One website showed that the material is called infincel and is not made with the mornal materials.

I'm a guy which is what makes this topic really strange for me lol It just seemed odd and thinking about the fact that they are made to dispose would hopefully mean they covered the whole environmental issue but there's no info as to what it is so i'm just curious.

asafum08, i too heard that commercial. I recall thinking: hopes its tested, or this time next year it will be on the 1-800-LandSharks commercials as the class action suits get under way.

as another poster mentioned, this may be marketing fluff designed to separate their product from the herd. i read of a USA beer bottler that employed a tag line mentioning their brew was "cold filtered". this ad campaign sold millions of bottles of happiness. the funny thing was, 'cold filtering' is just a common part of the brew / manufacturing beer process. most everyone did the same exact thing. but this one beer co had a ad company that was smart enough to make it seem like something special.

years ago while taking night time college courses i had a marketing teacher who was a life-long ad man. his claims to fame: he wrote the "Hi Guy!" tag line commercial (1970's) - a fellow in his bathroom opens the medicine cabinet mirrored door and there is a goofy fellow smiling back at him - Hi guy! (Alka Seltzer?). That, and he worked for the company that set Michael Jackson's hair on fire during production of a commercial.

any way, this teacher began the course by repeating this line three times very solemnly and loud: "advertising is the sole reason for the quality of life we live in America today". three times, loud and slow.

looking back now, I pity that poor deluded man. he really believed in it all. and he was the picture of failure, never getting the big account or the big break, divorced, balding and lonely. having to teach school at night in addition to a full timer so he can make alimony. standing in front of a group of second-string students in a night course for a community college. standing there, tired, hungry, damp, and still singing the praises of the system that had failed him. he was sold on selling people how to sell to people. i hope things improved for him. Peace!

Here is the trademark link.

I just found it odd the first time I seen the commercial I'm not sure why. Just one of those 'things that make you go hmm'.

I encourage all women to boycott disposable hygiene products in favor of reusable ones. I use cloth pads and not only does it save me all the money that would otherwise be going into the pockets of companies like Johnson & Johnson, I feel good knowing I'm contributing less to the never-ending garbage problem. Also, products like the Moon Cup or the Keeper are good reusable alternatives to tampons, which are known to cause toxic shock syndrome (ESPECIALLY the bleached ones). After all, your body is obviously trying to get rid of the egg, blood, uterine lining and there are waste products your body wants to get rid of mixed in. Why would you try to keep it plugged up inside you?

And why are people so squeamish talking about this stuff? It's no more gross than sneezing or peeing, but because it's done by only half of the population it takes on a mystery and people get uncomfortable talking about it. Guys discuss their bodily functions in graphic detail but it's taboo for me to talk about mine?


You know, I was trying to figure out why I reacted so squeamishly to reading your post (I'm a guy) because I too feel it's irrational. The only other things I could think of that make me react the same way is puke and getting kicked in the gonads. Odd thing on which to find myself thinking today, but it's a welcome change from my normal shallow ruminations...
Maybe the similarity between puke and menstruation (getting rid of something your body doesn't want) is the reason? I don't know.

sometimes i need a slap of reality to get my mind off the one track i focus on, thanks for reminding me that disposable razors exist. albeit a good retort it is still the same problem, you dispose of a plastic (petroleum product) frequently. aliens have nothing to do with oil aliens have noting to do with pollution aliens have nothing to do with greed and this post had nothing to do with aliens. see the connection?

if it isn't a natural biodegradable product then those that care for those to come will choose to buy the proper product, but until the information is out there for people to find we have to question what we don't know. How about more deny ignorance and less "i'm so smart i'm gunna make fun of others"

p.s the moon is made of cheese fool.

As a 'guy', I agree - we're not in the 1200s anymore. Anyone afraid of 'this' topic should probably just lock women away for one week a month and drop any pretense that they are 'modern' people ¬_¬

Title: Absorbent core for use in catamenial product.[ipexl.com/en/patents]

Abstract:
Curled, twisted cellulosic fibers are reduced in size by mechanical means, i.e., by refining. The refined fibers are formed into sheets which are used as an absorbent layer in diapers, bandages and, especially, in sanitary napkins. In one mode, the refined fibers can be used to provide shaped sanitary devices. In an optional mode, fibers having intra-fiber capillary channels can be used to direct fluids into absorbent sheets comprising the refined, curled cellulosic fibers.


Personal Disclosure: I hope that helps.
