I stopped watching about 40 years ago when they started advertising sanitary napkins.

it can't be any worse than the ads for boner pills. "If you have an erection that lasts more than four hours."

I am so glad I don't have small children any longer. Hell, when I was younger (in the Dark Ages) us kids would get embarrassed when a Playtex bra commercial came on!

The only ones I've seen are of women who appear to be stay-at-home moms, and they can't quite decide if they want another hellspawn yet, so they have an IUD. There might as well be a neon sign flashing off and on saying, "She's MARRIED! MARRIED!! And we're not talking about sex, it's about babies!"

Then again, the Nuvaring commercials that look like Ester Williams films are pretty stoopid, too.
