What's Your Opinion on the Wuka Period Pants Advert?

Agree 100% they sicken me and I am female! No one accounts for embarrassment factor anymore as no subject is taboo..........people sitting on the loo, taking drugs to be intimate, bottoms on show for loo paper, it goes on and on and I don't want to see it, especially in mixed company!

I totally agree with you and we've noticed some of these ads coming on as we're having our tea .

Yes I hate it. It’s unnecessary to be sitting on the loo for an ad.

Hadn't seen it but just looked it up. I wish I hadn't.

I guess they feel that these sort of things should not be taboo. I don’t know how i feel personally

Just looked it up but I'm not finding the one on the loo just the shower one

Doesn't bother me to be honest. The fact people are talking about it means that the company has gotten what they wanted. Ads like that don't bother me, they never have.

I don't recall seeing this advert so don't really understand what it is. But then to be fair I don't pay attention to the TV especially adverts. I tend to switch off

EDIT: just noticed I did not read the title properly either.

Its literally just someone sat on a toilet lmao

At the end of the day periods are a fact of life and I’m a endometriosis sufferer (which took till I was in my early 40s to be diagnosed following the constant fobbing off by the GPs over the years due to the slack attitude to periods) and I’m shocked how many people still don’t want to acknowledge or understand women’s health issues, I’m no feminist but come on it’s an advert and if it gets people talking about periods then that’s a good thing. We are still dealing with people saying “that’s women’s problems” and continuing to suffer in silence with it.

The menopause is finally getting some traction so hopefully periods will to. sadly women don’t choose to how their bodies work. I gladly would have been born a man and not have to deal with the blood and pain each month and not having days off school or using annual leave to cover days when my period fell on a weekday because I can’t have time off sick because it’s “just your period” and because all women’s are different doesn’t help.

If society didn’t have this old fashioned mentality then the contents of of ad wouldn’t even come up. Times have got to change!

I’m female and I agree it should not be on the tv it’s far to graphic everyone knows what a period is

maybe instead of moaning we should complain to relevant advertising body. When things are not complained about it is supposed that we are ok with them 'Oh but we haven't had any complaints ' so nothing changes. Keeping things private does not mean they are taboo but there is a time and place and it is not in my front room, on my tv when I have company, especially male.

Not sure why we even need to advertise loo roll or STs but I'm not in the least bit squeamish these days .I've seen too much to cower at a bit of blood or poo lol.

I hadn't seen it, so I had a look on Google, oh dear, the blood part was unnecessary
