Swedish ad showing menstrual napkin belt
A Swedish print advertisement from
the 1970s shows a boldness never seen
in American advertising for menstrual
products, or in most other countries
(but see a Dutch
ad). Even today, with an
advertisement (for shoes!) in
mainstream American women's magazines
showing a TV actress sitting on a
toilet, panties below her knees,
obviously ready to perform a bodily
function, I doubt that something like
the above would appear in mainstream
print in America.

with a traditional belt and pad and a

panty pads showing women wearing
belts, 1972,
1973. And

belt from 1945)
