Interesting, although I think judging ads of the past by today's standards is a bit silly.
The 'Modess because' ads used to appear in a women's magazine that my mother bought. As a pre-teen, I also remember wondering what they were about. Not sure how old I was when the penny dropped.
The article says 'it took us until the '90s to actually say the word 'period' or mention blood in most ads.' I think I've only ever seen a couple of Aussie ads that used the word 'period' and I don't think I've seen an ad that mentioned blood.

Euphemisms are the stuff where most period ads really shine.
They told me I could surf and ride a horse on my period, still waiting... lol.
