Is there some kind of constipation problem in america or what?

[Dis]

Why do I continuously see these commercials on tv? Is constipation that much a problem now days? Does no one actually eat any fruit? I suppose that is what happens when you live off of McDonald's.

What's hilarious is it's always women. Which makes me wonder. Do women's bodies differ in some way they are always constipated? I don't know much about women's bodies, so I have no idea. And is this really what women talk with each other about? Is this considered girl talk? You don't see guys holding conversations with each other about constipation. I suppose that is why you never see guys in those commercials.

Anyways, it's just something I had to get off my chest. I hope you can all provide an answer. Don't keep me in suspense.

I grew up with five sisters and my mother. Indeed, they were "bound up" (as my Mom called it) more often than my father and I. It does seem to be a female digestive thing, doesn't it?

No amount of constipation couldn't be solved by just eating different, male or female. Meh.

It might be prudent to remember that advertisers place specific commercials in specific spots in order to appeal to certain demographics. They know that certain segments of the population are likely to watch certain programs, and that those segments may also be at greater risk to certain ailments.

To put it simply, Dis: you may be in great danger of becoming constipated in the very near future.

If I were you, I would go out and buy as many laxatives as possible right now, just in case I become unable to leave the house when the constipation strikes.

yes I appear to be getting old . At least with regard to my viewing habits. I watch almost no modern tv shows or movies anymore. And no modern music as well.

I think you have to eat stuff like black break, get "fiber" (I may have invented that word)
