Ya that occurred to me too. Females have managed their periods up to now without free tampons. How did they do it?
I confess I don’t know how much tampons and pads and panty liners cost. I hope it doesn’t break the bank every month.
Let me just say this, in my own lifetime the advancements made in those products has been amazing.
It’s like what’s happened with infant diapers. It’s just astonishing how thin they are. And, there is almost never a leak.
When I was babysitting, say 40 years ago, I was still pinning the cloth diapers on, and that was really no picnic with a squirming baby.
One time on TV, I saw a Hooch wear tampons(or is it tamp-ins) as earrings! Quit a Hoot.
