Speaker 1 (00:00):
Jonesy and Amanda jam.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Nation Jonesy, Demanda Arms for the pub test and well,
there's no shortage of slang terms for vagina.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
No, but why do we flinch then when we hear
the actual word? This is a GOOLI we got the other.

Speaker 4 (00:12):
Day, Hey, Jones and Amanda. So I'm in the car.
I'm listening to the radio loud because you guys are
awesome and I love the music. And an AD comes
on and the ads tend to be even louder, and
the add is for vitamins. All of a sudden, someone
shouting vaginal health six times in a row, so loudly.
Next thing, I'm shrinking down in my car seat as
the guy next to me is stearing, probably wondering what

(00:34):
the f I'm listening to and maybe what's going on
down there?

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Right?

Speaker 4 (00:38):
That's what gets my goal.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
So she's rocking out to dress for success in the
car and then that finishes, and then.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
That and we have listened? Is the word said a
lot in that ad? Have a listen?

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Do you know?

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Vaginal vaginal vaginal, vaginal, vaginal vaginal. I don't know if
I noticed, but we had a discussion about this within
our team and we're saying, you know, if and it
does it is makes you WinCE, doesn't it hearing the
word that off? But why does it if it was
for another body? Part of it was for an elbow, Yeah,
I think twice ab.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Hour tennis elbow, and they said, if you're suffering with
tennis elbow, they don't got to preach your tennis elbo.
But like what it's doing for the Crusoes people it's
getting We're giving them a lot of advertising. And if
you're a lady that's affected by this, then no doubt
this would be a good product, not just that.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Why don't we say the word out loud? It is
one of the most censored words in the English language
and what it does is creates a lot of shame
around women's bodies and might hold back medical and health
concerns because of the swimmishness around the word. I think
the next generation down your kids grow up using this word.
You know, we found euphemisms for it now generation or

(01:41):
just didn't talk about it. Interestingly online Digital Jenna said
that the majority of people saying no that they don't
like the word are women. So what do you think.
Let's put it to the pub test. Hearing the word vagina?
Does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 4 (01:53):
Yeah, I think it does pass the pub test. That's
part of our body. It shouldn't be a taboo topic.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Certainly those past the pub test. We're living in two
thousands and like twenty twenties, and it's just I don't
understand why people get so upset here in a body part.
And two it's done its job. We're talking about an
ad and we all know exactly what they're selling. Now, No,
it doesn't, and they do say it too much. I've
got a.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Buslator of kids and when I hear it, I cringe.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I think what's their reactions when they hear it.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Of course it's past the pup test because it's just
like any other body parts.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
It's just that's all terms you say for it. Yeah,
I think it passes the pub test.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
So I grew up a bit in the next generation
where we talk more openly about bodies. So it's definitely
past the pub test for me.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
If men had one maybe talking about it all the time.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Well, wouldn't you just brandan and be competitions who can
say that the most often?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
That's going on a kiss right now?
