@They CallMe MRWILKES  Yes we get your lecture, again.

 

What are you even doing here??  The topic has nothing to do with you nor do you understand about these products.

 

Your constant remarks about being entertained by "you ladies" is condescending and quiet frankly you present as another "Mr." who views the good women here as not understanding economics, needing to calm down, and other assorted remarks I thought would have been dismissed decades ago.

 

I don't need your right to post comeback either.

I do not find the products wrong or embarrassing or disgusting or whatever.

 

I remember the first book I read about menopause by Dr. Christiane Northrup called "The Wisdom of Menopause". 

 

However we do know some earlier products were found to be problematic and commercials were removed.

 

I think it's a new time of life to embrace.  

 

Women can decide for themselves yay or nay. Isn't that what we all strove for decades ago ( and still do)?

 

Be well.

I do not understand the big hype about this. ****** is not a dirty word or a disgusting word. I also went thru menopause at age 36. I had no idea what was happening. I wish I had this product then instead of the meds etc they tried and did not work. But I will try this now. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. That being said Shawn was not the right host for this. She makes everything sound vulgar. Mary Beth would have been perfect she has more finesse.

@Cakers3  

I understand wanting to accept people we post with at face value but it does surprise me that anyone would think @They Call Me MR Wilkes is actually a "Mr."

@SusieQ_2  No matter what the gender, "condescending" does apply.  And frankly I can't imagine being so wrapped up and immersed in the goings-on of QVC as that person is, no matter what gender! 😵‍💫

Frankly QVC and it's desire to make money off a female rite of passage is a little off-putting and it was probably a suggestion of Shaun's since she seems to be the leader of the pack.  So tired of the over 50, menopause and vaginal problems.  Women have gone through these processess since forever and survived them.  Usually when a women experienced these thngs she talked to her doctor about it.  They have blown up aging and menopause like it's an illness. You would think Shaun and her gang would let women age gracefully and normally.  I don't watch any of those age related shows but since QVC has sunk a lot money into this  avenue we are probably going to be hearing about it for some time.

If viewers enjoy these shows, that is all good.👍

 

If viewers do not like them, that is all good.👍

 

Calling them Negative Nellies and other assorted put downs, 👎

 

I had no interest in any of the new offerings, and I am well past 50.

 

One does not have to enjoy presentations about Vag or whatever is being sold to not recognize her own passages through womanhood in a positive light.

 

Helping each other is key.  Try some understanding for those who are not comfortable with these programs. Oftentimes it seems to be more about the hosts than it is about the products.

Not sure I understand what the issue is here. If it addresses a potential problem for customers then 🤷🏻‍♀️. To me, it’s not very different than selling face cream to target wrinkles.

I think this item is no different than any other item the QVC sells to help someone.

We all can’t expect to be interested in everything. 🥴

And I think it was totally unnecessary to point fingers
(I could picture them in the air !! )
and embarrass any poster male or female. That in my books was rude and uncalled for, therefore discounting any opinions from the Finger Pointing Poster.
Try saying that 3 times! 🤗🤗🤗
