I’m presuming the CEO of Tampax already has a hit out on him.

When I temped at Kimberly-Clark in Wisconsin years ago, I recall they had a department (all men) who designed tampons, etc. They called them Sanitary Engineers.

Good for this guy.

The Indian government recently announced it would distribute subsidised sanitary products to poorer women.

Which means nothing will happen and nothing will change.

"A school dropout from a poor family in southern India has revolutionised menstrual health ..."

Why can't American companies export their products for females to India? Doesn't India allow American products into their country? Seems like this would be a large market.

These results obviously could not be relied on. It was then that he decided to test the products on himself. "I became the man who wore a sanitary pad," he says.

Thinking of the misery of these hundreds of millions of women is really a downer.

I thought menstration was clear blue fluid. That’s what I see on TV.

I dated a granola treehugging chick for a while. I made her use organic pine cones. She finally left me after a while.

He realized that women menstruate only monthly AFTER he was married? Egad.

Sanitation DIY-er/go-Galt/whatever ping. Surprisingly interesting account of what happened, too.

"The biggest mystery was what successful sanitary pads were made of...A few weeks later, mysterious hard boards appeared in the mail - cellulose, from the bark of a tree. It had taken two years and three months to discover what sanitary pads are made of,..."

Crony capitalism exists everywhere: The Indian government recently announced it would distribute subsidised sanitary products to poorer women. It was a blow for Muruganantham...

Socialists always fail: “Where Nehru failed,” he says, “one machine succeeded.”

I like this story and the entrepreneur in it.
