Tampons too "woke" for conservatives.

Unlimited taxing? Ok, how about we stick to things I actually said instead of making up things about me amd assuming things? And you know what they say about assumptions, rught?

So you think that because you pay taxes you have a limited right to tax others for whatever purpose you have. Since you had not originally mentioned any limit I am glad you cleared that up.

When you are young, your period is very often irregular and unpredictable, making it difficult to plan for. Girls are also starting to menstruate at younger ages--10% of girls have menarche before age 10, and more than half before age 12. When you need the supplies, you need the supplies, and it is a difficult thing for youngsters to plan ahead and be prepared for. Having the supplies readily available will help keep school attendance steady.

Look at it from a business perspective: at work, we keep a supply of menstrual products in the women's bathroom so people don't have to leave work due to a lack of having them available, just as we keep a supply of headache medicines and various first aid supplies for the same reason. We don't need a drop in productivity when the solution is so simple and cost-effective as compared to what the loss of productivity might cost.

Now that I think about it, I do remember there being pad and tampon machines (for exorbitant prices, even by today's standards) in the girl's bathrooms back as far as first grade. I think they were there for the teachers, not the students.

Rats. I thought that @Shaul and I were on to something. Dang womenfolk! So high maintenance.

Actually I just enjoy trolling some extremists a bit by adopting their point of view. Do not take anything I say along those lines seriously.

Oh, no, not at all. I want to decide every penny people pay in taxes and decide where every last cent gets spent.

Regardless of whose money it is, taking it via taxation is a necessity for only essential expenditures. For anything else it should be a last resort, not the first knee jerk response.

But what is "essential expenditures" is what's being discussed here, Shaul. Are you assuming that you are the "final answer" on this?
