The Story of Menstruation, as told Disney style

You got 10 minutes to spare? Coz that's how long this video is.

Produced by Disney in 1946 in collaboration with Kotex, this video was a part of a sex education campaign in America and was shown at public schools.

It's not the greatest animation Disney has done because I got bored by it after two minutes. It's pretty straight-forward. Clinical even. The standard music used and voice of the old lady talking in the video made me sleepy. But considering this was released in the 40's, there's not a lot to expect.

If this was created in this decade (or century), obviously, this video would be loaded with computer animation and Disney princesses would be singing and dancing all around, the same way you see women in napkin or tampon commercials move about, when they're not even worrying about menstrual cramps and migraines!

Note that the cartoon baby in the first few minutes of this video looks like she's already wearing make-up. Like so:

This is a 25-year old baby. 

But the script is quite amusing!

"Not only can you bathe...you SHOULD bathe!"

Where did her boobies go??

"Just be careful to avoid either very hot water or very cold water. In fact, it's not a good idea at anytime to shock your system with extremes." DUUUUUH. LOL!

This lady is taking a bath under a hail storm. 

"Try not to get yourself off-schedule by getting overtired, emotionally upset, or catching cold." 
"After all no matter how you feel, you have to live with people. You have to live with yourself too."
HAHA. Does Disney know us women really well, or what??

Menstruation = drama queen. FACT.
