Commercial Sharing Thread - Adult Incontinence Version!

[ChocChip]

Given there's a pretty active thread about baby diaper commercials, I thought I'd start one for the sort I prefer - ads for adult incontinence products, pads, pull-ups and nappies. Anything that normalises wetting yourself in absorbent products is welcome here

 

[PCBaby]

but have you noticed they are all for pull ups and all aimed at women? No nappies and no men!

That's not true!

That's not true!

Well I've never seen a tv advert for men with bladder problems, perhaps you have a link to one?

My post that you quoted is a link; click on it

It won't let me show it, tells me I have an ad blocker which I have turned off but still won't show it.

 

[PCBaby]

if you give me the name of the ad or sketch I may be able to find it, but there is still nothing on UK TV about men and IC.

It's the Oops! I Crapped my Pants! sketch from Saturday Night Live; since SNL is an American show, NBC may not have that clip available in the UK.

I heard a radio ad for Tena for Men pads recently.

I guess full adult nappies aren’t advertised because those who need (or want ) them won’t need TV commercials to tell them they do, and they tend to be provided through the NHS and other care institutions in most cases here. Whereas “discreet” pull-ups and pads can be marketed to otherwise healthy young and middle aged women with less stigma. I wondered if TV advertising would eventually turn to adult nappies when the pull-up pants first came on the market, but no such luck...

I like the soft porn of women in Tena or Depends commercials when they wear the products. They appear to be for slight leakage and not heavy duty use.

I just checked out that sketch, it's a spoof advert or sketch and not an actual advertisement.

Yeah, I love seeing attractive young-to-middle-aged women admitting they wet themselves and showing off that they wear “discreet” adult pull-ups. Only thing better would be if it was genuine adult nappies, but it’s harder to make them as marketable to the majority...

Thank you for the laugh of the day.

I don't have any videos to share on this thread, but I will say that many of these commercials are very rare to find on television, let alone online. Even back in the day, you would be lucky if you saw one during a commercial break.

This holds true for me.

Does this hold true for anyone else?

 

[CommanderCrayfish]

Gotta be honest, I found these ads kind of sexy. Shame they don't air anymore, they've been updated with a new actress.

This one has to be my personal favorite. Lady rushing home from work desperately needs to pee and can't find her keys. Sort of implies that she wets herself.

I have seen other commercials for men and depend flex fit. for some reason a firefighter comes to mind. and I don't know so much about now days but back in the 80s and 90s you had soap operas on during the day. The adverts were usually about diapers baby and adult because you had the target audience of women old and young watching the shows.

Okay that looks like a good inductee for a super bowl commercial

That made me chuckle

I’m sure there was a recent one in the UK where the actress is attractive late 20s (early 30s at most) in which she says “now I can feel both pretty and protected!”

The actress who plays the young Mum is 32.

There are also radio ads for Tena Men on quite a lot at the moment with the tag line in a
macho American accent “Tena Men - Pants and Pads- Keep control!”
