@theliorainitiative: Back in the early 1900s, Lysol wasn’t just marketed as a “feminine hygiene” product - it was also quietly promoted as a form of BC. ************* With few safe options available, women were left to decode ads filled with subtle language and euphemisms. ***************** The glossy photos promised “freshness” and “marital happiness,” but what they were really pointing to was contraception - without ever daring to say it. #TheLioraInitiative #WomensHealth #ReproductiveJustice #Lysol #DarkHistory

Looking at these ads now, what subtle hints do you notice that were meant to disguise what they were really selling?
