Nelex...

The following extracts came in response to an advert in a South African woman's magazine called Femina. All of the extracts are from people whose first (or even second) language is NOT English and who live in a very rural existence.
Back in 1985, SA Femina Magazine ran an advertisement for Nelex, a medicine for the treatment of a vaginal infection known as Vaginitis. The ad prompted hundreds of letters from sufferers countrywide, most of them from women who were clearly unsure as what exactly was wrong with them.
The letters were collected by the advertising agency that created the Femina ad who swear that every single one of them is genuine. Herewith extracts from some of the most hilarious!

My interesting language is English, so you better send me an English copy of your vaginitis.

Nelex the effective treatment, is it also effective in Zimbabwe? My husband does not know where I live, so we never have sex.
