Party Girl's Thought for Wednesday, January 5, 2011

Seriously?  See where they have to go JUST TO ADVERSTISE?!

Today's thought is more of a rhetorical one, but I still haven't figured out WHY companies that make personal hygiene and/or sexual products spend any significant amount of money on advertising or marketing.  Commercials, magazine ads and online pop-ups about douche, FDS spray, tickler condoms and maxi-pads or tampons have, and I am almost positive will never have, any significant impact on which items I buy.  My mother/family, own experiences, friends, in-store and/or product information on packaging (in that order) play more than 95% into my purchasing choices than anything else.  I would rather they put those dollars to better use with higher worker wages, contributions to overall environment health & safety and/or charitable contributions.
At least ad & marketing people have some jobs in this market?

Look, it was like a prescription anyway... Put IN YOUR MEDS!
