Does anyone think it is appropriate to make fun of menopausal women. Many women suffer from this and how QVC can capitalize on this to sell a product is disgusting

No one is making fun of anything.  Naomi Watts developed products for herself and decided to sell them to others that may be sharing her experiences.

It's fine.  Relax.  Simma down.

The world will not end.

Nothing "disgusting" about it at all.  What an odd attitude to have.

No one is making fun of it.  Naomi Watts is very serious.  I hope her brand is successful.

Some folks still don't understand capitalism,  entrepreneurship,  marketing,  brand awareness,  new product development.......

This has nothing to do with capitalism. It has to do with women who suffer hot flashes and night sweats. This goes on for years and yet they sell a product and try to make it seem funny

QVC sells skincare that customers here pay three, four, five times as much as Naomi's product.  Eye cream, face cream, decolletage cream, foot cream, etc.  

Stripes Vag of Honor is targeted, specific, hydrating skincare for a woman's body.  What's the big deal?

Some of these repressed comments on this forum are bewildering.  I've heard hour-long presentations of the efficacy of ingredients of facial serums with videos and graphics on changes in the skin in minute detail.  However, Naomi did not drone on like that.  She was charming, unabashed, and presented the product just fine.  The injected humor is trying to loosen some viewers up so they can feel a little more comfortable.

Equating it to selling s*x toys (on another thread here) is ridiculous.

Took the time to listen to Naomi Watts who is being honest  of her experiece   and  being serious. Tuned out Shawn  during the presentation, but have to admit  she is trying to be respectful of the subject with Naomi Watts.

There is nothing ground breaking about the Q selling  this 

vaginal product and issues women have post menopause.

Its been talked about endlessly on daytime talk and podcast

for years and written about in books ( Suzanne Simmers wrote books about it 

decades ago) magazine and newspapers. Numerous products are everywhere.

Q late to the party on this. I lasted maybe 2 minutes.

[They Call Me MR Wilkes]

I want to make a joke about lasting two minutes.

But I refrain.  Simmer down.
