This is all incredibly ridiculous, but I've decided I love Ciara!

I hate the ad anyway.
It is patronising. Girls and women always have another woman they can ask when it’s their first time. Plus the package instructions are very clear even to an illiterate person.
It pushes applicator type tampons which massively contribute to plastic pollution problems.
