"Disney at its most terrifying" was the subject of the e-mail with this link
The Menstruation Story
Plus, the first 30-40 seconds into it, the T.V. was playing something about Henry VIII executing his wives in London just as the cradle and baby appeared...(at least the T.V. bunny ears/digital converter box is working for Olympics channel, yay!)

"this isn't all that funny...it's mostly just educational..."
yeah, yeah, yeah...

nevermind, there was a much more satisfying exchange on e-mail

THAT IS HORRIFYING!!!Parts of that must have been really shocking for 1946 ("Did they just use the word vagina?"). But the fact that they make it your personal responsibility to have your period on time - AS IF ANYONE HAS FUCKING CONTROL OVER THAT - and they make it into a personal failure if you don't - is just STAGGERINGLY HORRIFIC!I just about keeled over when they used the phrase "past performance" as if you're supposed to grade yourself on the whole thing. Oh, and don't get me started on the whole "for most girls the pain isn't too bad thing" - WHERE THE EFF ARE YOU PULLING THAT STATISTIC FROM, EH!?And the "makeup will make it all better!" tactic at the end disgusts me.Oh, and the housework as part of normal activity - YEAH, KEEP DOING ALL YOUR HOUSEWORK, BECAUSE DISNEY SAYS YOU SHOULD. But treat yourself and don't lift any furniture when it's that time of the month.
It was all I could do not to yell FUCK OFF BITCH at the narrator.
