What's with that advertisement showing Napoleon not being able to Conquer the World because he had "male menstrual cramps."

Women's menstrual cramps happen because a blister on their ovaries erupt to free an egg cell. Men don't have ovaries, so they don't get those eruptions, so they don't EVER have that particular cause for cramps.

Men do sometimes get "stomach" cramps, but these are muscular cramps that women can also get, and in neither sex are they related to menstruation. Which, by the way, men don't do.

So WHY, fer crying out loud, is SOMEBODY paying good money to promulgate the falsehood that men get menstrual cramps too? What's the motive here?

I haev no idea whic advertisement you refer to but they are undoubtedly paying the money gained from previous successful advertising campaigns in order to attract consumers. That's what motivates all campaigns. And it would be daft to assume that the content of most adverts was based on reality and not a created fiction of unrealistic human aspirations.

omg that is the most hilarious thing i have ever heard. If men got menstrual cramps, then im damn sure they'd be a bit more sympathetic to us women!

It is kind of odd. I've been wondering why anybody would bother with something so stupid, but if advertising keeps this thing running, then I guess it's ok.
