    yes they do. they spill products onto clean floors and immediately mop them up. maybe i’m thinking of feminine hygiene products or adult diapers. i don’t watch a lot of commercials.

    The culture around women shaving is so dumb. So dumb, in fact, I don’t shave anything other than my armpits. And I only shave my armpits because I don’t like how the hair feels when sweat accumulates.

    If I ever get a gf and she doesn’t like my fuzzy legs and magnificent bush, then she ain’t the girl for me.

    Body hair is deeply stigmatized. Bodies and bodily functions are stigmatized.

    It’s the same reason why sanitary pad commercials use clear blue liquid for absorptive demonstrations and not body temperature strawberry preserves. Or heaven forfend actual uterine lining…

    Smiling happy women reclining in a bath, shaving off foam to reveal glossy perfect legs, is shorthand for the reality of what actually happens.
