OK, I would never think about this in a thousand years. Now. I've thought about it.
This piece of work should be locked up, so she won't propogate.
Great title!
Since this issue may or may not impact those who identify as women, no pattern of discrimination can be established. Therefore, there is not an issue to be addressed.
Wow! The author and the topic was destroyed in the now closed comment section. Maybe there is hope after all...
This incompetent writer is what today’s colleges are producing.
Too funny :)
When it comes to menstruation, leftwing women go to two extremes. They either rail against it as some unfair patriarchal curse, or they elevate it and worship it in a nutcase Gaia-inspired fashion.
The author is correct: tampons are luxury items. Why else would MHP wear them as jewelry?
In the developing world, they found that in many areas, building enclosed, private outhouses and bathrooms for girls raised “secondary” school attendance 25%. While boys could pee in the bushes, girls were reluctant to wait all day for a private place to pee and poop (at home), and the start of menstruation made it literally impossible for many girls to attend school that week on top of everything else.
For older women, the expectation of privacy when going to the bathroom meant those without a private outhouse had to “hold it” until night, where they had some privacy but then were at risk of assault.
So yes, lack of menstruation products hinders girls in places where they have none such available - but lack of proper hygiene facilities for women and girls is a much greater problem and true “feminist” issue.
In the developed world, a woman with a cell phone and car who can’t afford feminine hygiene products has a problem with spending priorities, not equal rights.
What about us post menopausal women? Do we get nothing?
If the Democrats think it will win them an election, you and I will be footing the bill for all the Tampax.
Mark my words.
Gee, before the invention of feminine hygene products women must have been dropping like flies as they were poisioned by their own bodies.
Every day our government grows bigger and more intrusive into our lives. What’s not to like about that?
The elite socialists actually believe the female sheeple are too stupid to manage their bodily functions by themselves and need the assistance of their friendly government. It’s their Constitutional “right” to be given free stuff cause men get free stuff too.
Everybody wins! Government further controls the design, manufacture, distribution, application, and disposal of tampons. Women get their “free” tampons. Men get “free” gun barrel cleaners and first aid for gunshot wounds. Homosexuals, Trans-sexuals, and Eunuchs get free “toys” to stick anyplace the government approves. And nobody pays a dime. It’ free.
Ain’t equality and Socialism great! /s
My satire recognition gland is just plain worn out today.
Now they want free earrings too?
Would men get free tampons too?
They are a good item to have in a SHTF situation. All sorts of uses.
