Norwegian exhibit about menstruation &
the company history of the Scandinavian
tampon and menstrual pad company SCA
Mølnlycke
To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of
the SCA
(formerly SABA) Mølnlycke
company in
Scandinavia, which sells Libresse menstrual
pads and o.b. tampons, the company held
a wonderful exhibit about menstruation in
the city museum of Vestfold, Norway.
(See more about
the company.)
Visitors - and they sure look like men to
me! - inspect some
of the many displays. Thousands saw the
exhibit.
What a great idea! Why doesn't someone in
the States
do this? Wait a
second, I
HAVE!
