Australians have such a kooky sense of humor! See if you can figure out what this commercial is about before it ends. (Thanks to Kevin R. for the tip!)
Update: The beaver ad has drawn complaints in Oz but Kotex has no plans to yank it.
Apparently the ad was based on “extensive research” into euphemisms Australian women age 18 to 24 use to describe their genitals in order to make themselves feel more comfortable with their bodies and “beaver” placed 11th out of 181. http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23358686-421,00.html
i guess it helps that we dont call vaginas “beavers” here, but knowing thats what they are called “up north” makes it all the more funny. I wonder how long it will be before its pulled off air for being “offensive” as most good ads are these days.
Bahaha. My fiance and I cracked up at the end of this commerical. Since you’re a Canadian and so am I, at first we thought it is Molson’s (beer) commerical.
From Molson’s well known commercial I AM CANADIAN “…the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal…”
This is funny one.

Unsurprisingly, few people reading this blog are moved to comment on an item about vaginas…
