“Banned” usually implies “by government action”. I don’t think the government every prohibited showing this film, so it was never really banned. In fact, the film was shown to millions of high school students. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Story_of_Menstruation
I would guess the Disney and Kotex corporations just stopped making it available when it started looking out of date. (Like hundreds of other educational films of previous decades.) Not being available hardly means the film is “banned”.
Aw, you beat me to the punch — I was going to say – “gives a new twist to the term ‘Flowing Data.” ha ha. I guess it was too obvious for me to be the only one to think of it.
Probably banned because of the naked woman in the shower.

but then i looked at the actual text.. “it’s funny that *flowing*data leaked it”.
