What about Willy Wipes and Penipads?

That sounds like part of a Dave Attell comedy routine.

2020-06-25 | Countdown to ditch outdated language for straight talk on period products | Stuff.co.nz
'Countdown supermarkets are ditching terms like “feminine hygiene” and “personal care” products in favour of calling tampons, pads and menstrual cups what they are: period products. ', "From now on they'll be labelled period products, says spokeswoman Kiri Hannifin."
'Sanitary items and feminine hygiene products are a thing of the past at Countdown supermarkets. '
'Intimate hygiene products would now just be called genital washes and wipes. '
'Hannifin said Countdown was the first supermarket globally to change period product terminology. '

Good news everyone, they told blood to no longer be a vector for disease!

Of course! I mean, clotting, dead blood cells are perfectly safe and sanitary! Just leave the stuff anywhere. Countertops, floors, toilet seats - NO ONE WILL MIND AT ALL!!!

I mean, really, why even buy the "period products", just freebleed.
I also think it's funny that they're so proud they're not using euphemisms anymore, but they're really just using a different euphemism.
