Re: UKNM: Lord save us from tampax banners on the web....

[Amanda Christie]

This ISN'T a female thing but why on earth would anyone be perturbed

by such advertising.  It blows my mind that someone would! (and the

I guess the first time a Tampax advert arrived on our TV screens (this

is where we hope www is going) you may have also been shocked. The

internet NEEDS to be more consumer - surely!


GEEEZZZZ.
