But if the depression, anxiety, and horrible feelings continue, please look up what PMDD is and talk to a doctor or gynecologist about treatment if you think you have it. This is a vital piece of information that unfortunately was unavailable in 1946, but realizing I had PMDD (pre-mentrual dysphoric disorder) has greatly decreased the amount of emotional agony you are in. It is one thing to struggle with mood swings and live with it, but a whole other thing to live with chronic depression and/or anxiety every time you're about to get your period. If something causes you too much pain, seeing a good doctor who listens and helps is worth it.

The bill is directed at "mature minors" as well, with many areas having a minimum age of 13 or 14. Also you ignorant twit, sex change operations are the LAST part of transistioning. You know what the 1st part is? Consulting with a Dr and a therapist. Then if the patient and the Dr think it would be in the patient's best interest to start medical interventions like puberty blockers - something used for DECADES to stop precocious puberty w/o any permanent side effects - then they take meds for as long as they feel they need to. There is a whole process trans ppl have to go thru to get to the surgery stage and not all trans ppl choose to have surgeries, or they pick and choose which ones they want for their stage of like. No doctor is approving instant mastectomies and hysterectomies and vaginal and penile reconstruction surgeries to 10 yr olds who walk in and say they don't like their bodies.

Haha! My mother is 97 now and I'm still waiting for any kind of birds and the bees talk from her. At least she did let me go to the class. Not this one but similar in 1972.
Nothing in this movie is 'dated.' All of it is still great advice. Nothing has been proven wrong, since 1946, by 'modern science.' Amazing. Even the part about not feeling sorry for oneself, and still taking care of one's appearance, which "gives one new poise and lifts morale"-great advice in general for anyone! I wish I'd had this vid to show my daughter when she was a pre-teen. It's so well presented and told in a way that's kind, gentle, and just matter-of-fact, without being at all embarrassing. And I would have felt much more comfortable introducing it to her in a home setting, with me, rather than first learn about it in a school classroom. An excellent film, made during the days when Disney was a good and trusted company. 🥰

There is one thing that has changed: This video says it's normal for periods to be irregular for just the first year. However, now they say that they are often irregular for the first several years. My periods were irregular for the first 10 years (until my early 20s), but none of my doctors were concerned about it; they said it was normal for young women.

@@halleyorion There is tons of research on this topic. It seems your Dr used the word “normal” interchangeably for not a medical problem. It’s not common to be irregular for 10 years without a hormone, weight change , or long term illness to be at the root. I am sure they do not want girls to assume and go 10 years without checking with a Dr. I am sure it is possible to be irregular without health issues however 2 to 3 years is the average time before it regulates.

I remember seeing this in school as a young girl and afterward, each girl (we were separated from the boys to view the movie) was given a little "personal Product kit" that looked like a little gift that included this pamphlet and an assortment of napkins (pads) and tampons. All the boys were jealous because we got "gifts" and they got to watch a football reel. The girls were so excited that we couldn't wait to use our little kits! Little did we know once that little "gift" from Mother Nature arrived it was a life of Hell for 30 years! Great memory now all that hell is over. Where is the Disney film for Menopause?

This video promotes good health and is an invaluable tool for presenting this education without the embarrassment and stigmas that society attaches to it. The only people that I can imagine being offended are those that honestly, despite all evidence to the contrary, believe that there is no difference between a man and a woman.

@@crunchycrustyteacupshards6902 It's all about perception. You obviously have very negative associations with menstruating, and seem to feel embarrassed and ashamed about menstruating. If you were raised in a different environment where periods were a celebrated and a valued part of womanhood, your perception about the sensory experience of menstruating would be more positive, even with all the symptoms. There is no shame in being a biological woman. It's attractive and sexy. The body scents we have are a biologically important part of attracting people. A loved one's scent would be important to you, as yours would be to your loved one, including children being comforted by the familiarity of the smell of you, if you are associated with positive experiences. (Men don't have as strong sense of smell as women. Women are attracted to men who have an immune system that most differs to theirs, so their children have a better chance of a stronger immune system). The human body is extraordinary. Especially the complexity of a woman's body! That definitely includes your body. ✨️ That you are menstruating means that you are probably fertile, and will most likely have a choice if you want children, or not. Some women don't have that option. It's something to be appreciative of. If you think any of your bodily scents don't smell right, and it's not just a matter of personal preference, it's best to see a doctor in case you have an infection. Having a woman's body is certainly an ongoing challenge! But personally, I would rather be a woman than anything else!

@@daniellamcgee4251 As a female who was raised in a positive environment about periods, and when I first got mine, I was celebrated, I can honestly say, that periods ARE gross. It's literally blood exiting the body. Even the body thinks it gross and unneeded, hence the reason it is shed every month. Yes, as gross as they are (like pooping and peeing), it is natural, and the idea overall, is beautiful. Still, the pain, the worrying if you're going to bleed through your pants, the mood swings, etc., etc. can be quite annoying, inconvenient, and yes, gross.
This was made in 1946… its 2023 and I’m over here going “ohhhhh so that’s why it feels like that” understanding things I’ve should’ve known.
I love how common sense this advice is, especially the parts about not feeling sorry for yourself, I kind of laughed at that

Why is everyone saying this was an informative video? It doesn’t even mention what might be the single most important thing to prepare them for - the fact that they will bleed. If I saw this before I got my first period without other information, I’d be terrified when I started seeing blood. Pads, tampons or any other sanitary product aren’t brought up at all (though tampons were pretty controversial in the 1940s, so that’s not surprising). Sure, this has scientific information, but that’s not what kids need to know before they’ve had a period - they need to know how to deal with it, and they need to know they aren’t about to die. I’m not saying it’s completely useless, but it definitely doesn’t do nearly a good enough job at explaining menstruation, so I don’t know why people are acting like it is. It’s dated at best.

As humorous as it might be to watch this now in 2018, it's important to remember that it was absolutely groundbreaking in 1946. There was still a lot of negative stigma and misinformation about periods that at the time (and previous decades) were very mainstream and common. Women's health wasn't talked about and a lot of this information was kept quiet until the "day of" which wouldn't help anybody. My grandmother told me about how all of this information was considered taboo, gross, or inherently inappropriate when she was growing up. Hell, even TODAY there's still people who think that way. Still though, historically speaking, this is a great piece of history regarding health education! You've got to appreciate it for that at least!

This film, which was shown in 6th grade in our school district, was the extent of our sex ed in 1961. At 3:55 the narrator states "If the egg is impregnated, which happens when a woman is going to have a child..." We were never told how the egg got impregnated, so several of us thought we might be pregnant if our period was late, even though we had never so much as kissed a boy. What needless anxiety we suffered.

Back then honey, everyone was more mature than they are now. I heard my niece getting bullied because she started her period. She's 11 by the way. Sad how both females and males make fun of periods, but back then we were so happy we were finally becoming true women 🥺. I miss those days 😭
As a man I applaud such honest, straightforward and no-frills educational content. Back when my grandmother was alive (born 1928), she used to tell me during her time NO ONE talked about sex or periods. She was absolutely clueless as to how girls got pregnant, which led to her getting pregnant with her first boyfriend at the age of 18. She had no idea what was going on and was shocked to find herself pregnant a few weeks later. That event literally ruined her life and preventer from getting an education, good jobs, etc., since no one would hire a single woman at that time. While all her girlfriends were going to vocational schools, getting good jobs, getting married, traveling the world, etc., she was ostracized by society and ended up babysitting all her friends' kids while they would go on vacation to Europe, etc. According to her, even though she loves her children, getting pregnant at an early age out of wedlock in the 1940's completely ruined her life, and all because she was completely ignorant about sex. So kudos to the makers of this film, however hokey it might look to us today.

Sex education didn't make women get pregant from ruleless sex less, if anything it seems to have done no good. I highly douht your grandmother didn't know what sex was at least a little, I think she's a liar.

I'm disappointed with Disney these days. They had quality shorts like this in their vaults and didn't think to make it available?!? Sheesh! 😩
My mother was an RN I learned about this very early and knew more than all of my friends! Thank you Mom I love you more!!! (She was our school nurse also!!!!)
This is about the entirety of everything I've learned in 4 years about menstruation. Good job Disney

You can use tampons
Oh my gosh, I think I saw this in 1966 !! I feel like this is from the late 40's. I must say that we were seeing these old films well into the early 80's.

I also saw it in ‘66. My mother took me to a place one night when I was 10, and they showed it. I didn’t understand it at all, and my mother didn’t say a word about it, and she never ever brought up the topic again. I was totally unprepared, and when my period started I had zero tampons. I had to skip out of school to get them. I went to a private preppie school that had no nurse.

Fun fact: That short was one of the inspirations for Homeworld in Steven Universe, according to Rebecca Sugar, more specifically the scene at 7:24-8:06
Funny story: I'm a guy, so when they announced in 4th grade that the boys and girls are going to have to attend a specific meeting to discuss puberty, the girls went off to watch this movie. We had no idea since the male teacher took us outside to play kickball. I never did know what they were watching until now -w-

I saw this when I was in private school. I was in 5th grade. Even got the same little handbook! They even gave us a box of pads and 2 menstrual belts. The boys were in another room watching a movie about what happens with their development. I remember when we all came out after the presentation, boys couldn't look at us and we couldn't look at the boys. Our lives were forever changed in that moment.

@@tiph3802 omg! they came in my "starter kit" -- 1970? but a thin fabric belt that goes around your waist, with two "garters" that would attach to and hold up pads, which had extra material at each end -- iirc, "Stayfree" was the first pad that had adhesive, instead of requiring a belt -- early 1970s? -- there were also these hideous panties, with elastic bands at each end of the crotch; you would insert the pad there
