“There is this weird trend of period shaming and, like, this stigma around periods in general,

I'm 50 years old and I have never in my life heard anyone "shame" a woman for having a period. This is insanity. Its a solution looking for a problem.

Is the availability or knowledge of how to use menstrual supplies really this big a problem?????

I’m a man, without personal experience in this area. But I know there are many fine women Freepers who could let us know, what is the real deal; what is the experience with women as they undergo menstruation????

How ‘accessible’ do these products need to be before the women begin supplying themselves?
Must it be like having ‘A Taco Truck on every corner’, the college campus overrun with vendors? I think not.

I wonder if the women realize how stupid this is implying they are?

“There is this weird trend of period shaming and, like, this stigma around periods in general, which to me makes absolutely no sense,” Linscott said.

Who shames girls/women for having periods, at least in this country?

Every woman I’ve dated has had the sense to carry such “products” during and leading up to “that time”.

By college, girls/women should already have a sense when to expect their period.

They don’t want feminine hygiene products to be more accessible on campus.

They want FREE feminine hygiene products to be more available on campus.

All the normal females I have known carried something along with them for emergencies.

Especially when they knew it was the time of the month for THE VISITOR to stop by.

There should be people roaming the campus with a Batman utility belt or even a bandolier of tampons and pads so that a student who gets her period can have instant access to the necessary absorbent materials.

These people will, of course, be paid well with full benefits and will represent a full cross-section of the desired level of campus diversity (minus males, of course).

Their callsign will be Red Beaver. They’ll wear a hat with a red flashing light that, when illuminated, will require all male students in sight to assume a position of subjugation and repentance with eyes looking down they do not offend or embarrass any female students.

Seriously, do these females need sanitary napkins/tampons inside classroom, next to each desk ?

at age fifteen working at a nursing home taking home 57 dollars per week, I funded my apartment, my education, my own birth control and all of the feminine hygiene products I needed. Along with food, entertainment, clothing, and electricity.

What is wrong with these pussy cats?

Almost all women carry a cosmetic pouch in their purse w/ pain meds, brush,powder, FEMININE HYGIENE PRODUCTS. C’mon, I am a woman & my little pouch has everything you need to freshen up etc. I guarantee most women are prepared. I have never been period shamed. Is this stuff made up? Plus most women’s bathrooms sell them.

Woman up. Sheesh

If you’re not smart enough to carry your personal needs at all times, what are you doing out of elementary school?

Why do some women think that the entire world must cater to their every whim?

Once we got to higher education, WE didn’t need these things, our parents didn’t need these things, nor did their parents!

Have you millennials become totally infantilized?

How sexist. Boys can have periods also
