Lysol, the great disinfectent. I've been told it works for sore throats also. Kill two birds with one stone?

yeah, they're not telling the women to exactly bathe in the lysol in the traditional sense. the ad was intended for a more "internal use" for that not so fresh feeling, if you catch my drift.

But use a scrub brush before you dangle that part, just to make sure that the pores are opened up.

Lysol was used as a contraceptive when birth control was illegal - that's what these ads are referring to. "Germs" = sperm.
