My. Goooosh. This remind me of the film that I had to see (in fifth grade, I think) on menstruation. I remember that the film started with a cartooned boy and girl dancing around in formal dress at a school dance and was followed with an animation of the girl's uterus with [gasp!] the menstrual lining slowly, er...descending. Those are the only two scenes I remember from that film and they are forever burned into my brain. Viva the late 70s! Oh. My. Goooosh.

I guess I'm older than I thought :) You can see the whole booklet here and know how we learned about becoming a woman in the 3rd grade: http://www.mum.org/guli78.htm Oops, I was wrong…the film and book are from 1978.

It's like some surrealistic health class project. I couldn't find a clip of the video they made us girls watch in the early 80s (while the boys were sent off to play kickball in the gym, I might add), but here's a link to a photo of the booklet they gave us, yes with the super big pads. Adhesive didn't arrive until a year or so later. http://www.flickr.com/photos/sock_puppet/872918174/ Yikes! It’s like some surrealistic health class project.
