Very Personally
Yours (Kotex, Kimberly-Clark
Corporation)
puberty & menstruation booklet for
girls, 1981, U.S.A.
Below:
P. 6

Below:
P. 7. This is the rare booklet for
girls that uses VULVA,
and it explains it. But it should
point to it
on the drawing on the opposite
page. Clitoris
also appears in print but with no
further discussion maybe because
it would lead to WOW! and
Where is it
again?! and the downfall
of American Girlhood and to
torchlight processions against K-C
headquarters; these clarify its
banishment from the drawing. Hymen and
anus
are also rarely mentioned in this
kind of booklet but here they are!
Once Kimberly-Clark got started it
couldn't stop!
See a photo of an egg leaving
the ovary.
