Boots sell 'Feminine wipes' and there are lots of Femfresh products out there, will these have to go?

Fairly sure I've been using Kleenex "extra large" for months if not years but then I am a wimp who chooses the Balsam option in the green box. Half of me wonders if the entire story was dreamt up by the Kleenex marketing department.

Well you may ask. Believe it or not, a Police 'Hate Crime' Officer already expressed thoughts on labelling of 'feminine hygiene' products.

Who's complaining?

They say they've been inundated with calls complaining but who's verifying these calls?

Its the same with "viewing figures" for their TV shows as well, who's verifying this? because you ask people and they haven't a bloody clue what the tissues called never mind the nickname for them ffs

I honestly think they make this up as they go along
Report SontaranStratagem October 18, 2018 4:26 PM BST
Who the hell has the time to make these calls as well?

one minute the BBC are reporting that people haven't the time to even make a microwave meal because of increasing hours at work, the next millions are calling up ofcom complaining about a tissue paper

Its baffling Crazy

Hi @Kleenex_UK. My 4yo son asked me what was written here. Then he asked, why are they called mansize? Can girls, boys & mummies use them? I said: I don’t know & yes of course. He suggests you should call them “very large tissues”. It is 2018

OK, @Lisa Hancox , what are your views on filling parliament with 4 yr old policy makers ?
Kids ask questions , parents supply the answers . Nothing new there . It doesn't mean we have to implement their childlike suggestions .
