Watch As I Wave My Nerd Flag

[Image description: an ad by Summer’s Eve, advertising feminine hygiene products. Over a painting of Helen of Troy, the copy reads “It was more than her face that launched a thousand ships. A war was fought. A whole city fell. And thousands died. Because of a beautiful face? We think not. Although you’ll be hard-pressed to find any mention of her V in any history book, you can bet Helen of Troy knew what was up. Ad you can bet she knew how to take care of hers too. Just imagine if she’d had Summer’s Eve Cleansing Wash and Cleansing Cloths. pH-balanced, they help get you fresh and keep you fresh all day long. No telling how many ships would have been launched then.”]

#SHE LAUNCHED SHIPS LITERALLY OUT OF HER VAGINA

Is this seriously a thing now, world? IS THIS WHAT WE HAVE BECOME. I’m also amazed at the fact that they got through the entire ad without having to expressly say what they make or what it’s for once!

Summereve is really bad at this. 

Oh, and that commercial where it’s like, “It’s the cradle of civilization…men have fought for it, men have died for it.  Some may say it’s the most powerful thing in the universe.” bothers me so much.  On the one hand, I’m like, “Fuck yeah, vaginas are powerful,” but at the same time, no.  It isn’t the vagina that is powerful, it is the person who has the vagina.  Plus, they’re all, “Show it some love,” and if you really want to show your vagina some love, don’t use shitty products like Summer’s Eve.  Use mild soap and water.  We don’t call it a “self-cleaning oven” for nothing.
