TABOO Unveils New Period Campaign Complete With Vibrators, Menstrual Cups & Strangely, Hummus

In an effort to break down societal stigmas around periods, personal care brand Moxie has partnered with TABOO to launch ‘The Moxie Periodic Table’ – a centralised, online resource that provides credible, useful information about periods.

The Moxie Periodic Table is a totally uncensored period guide designed to make menstruation easy(er) for everyone, covering tips and tricks from a team of experts including sexologists, gynaecologists, nutritionists and fitness gurus, who answer everything from ‘WTF is a menstrual cup?’ to ‘Am I still a virgin if I use a tampon?’.

 

With over 60 pieces of content and more underway, the Moxie Periodic Table covers all the ‘feels’, ‘fixes’ and ‘things’ that go with menstruation – and includes comedy skits by Emma Holland, playlists by musician Kira Puru and advice from sexologist Chantelle Otten on everything from ‘outercourse’ to period-friendly sex toys.

To kick start the project, Moxie founder Mia Klitsas treated Melbourne commuters to a helpful and practical tip for reducing period cramps. The ongoing project will run on social media and street posters across Melbourne and Sydney with a PR campaign led by Alt/Shift, all driving to the Moxie Periodic Table microsite.

Coinciding with the launch of the initiative is the release of new research revealing almost half of Australian women do not fully understand their periods, with a further one in five admitting they feel embarrassed, ashamed or judged talking about menstruation.

Mia Klitsas, co-founder and CEO of Moxie said:  “It’s astounding that in the year 2020, people are still uncomfortable when it comes to talking about periods. This is leading to a lack of communication, which in turn is having a damaging effect on people’s understanding of their own bodies. Women are not getting the support and information they want and deserve; but we are here to change that.”

Matilda Hobba, General Manager of Taboo said: “This is a really important project for us to share with young women. If we can help to make this monthly reality a little less daunting and a little more light-hearted, we’ll have done our job. Importantly, The Moxie Periodic Table is a resource that will live on and evolve in line with what our community needs; it’s a place where people can ask all their wildest and most confronting questions – and receive honest, caring and respectful answers in return”.
