Was ein bisschen Druck bewirken kann. Nachdem @stillnotlovin und Julia Hartl die Ratshaustoiletten schon zweimal aus eigener Tasche mit Hygieneartikeln versorgt haben, hat die Stadtverwaltung #Dresden nun doch einen Gang zugelegt und den #Staddrat - Beschluss von 2021 endlich umgesetzt - zumindest zum Teil.
Heute haben wir in der Fußgängerzone von #Dresden erneut das Blümchen-Gehabe zum #Frauentag auf die Schippe genommen. In unseren Geschenken steckten #Tampons und #Binden, garniert mit unangenehmen Wahrheiten zum Thema #Menstruation.
Über 200 dieser Notfall-Sets haben @stillnotlovin, @tabs, @ueckueck und ich verteilt. Warum, wieso, weshalb, erfahrt ihr auf unserer Homepage:

#MarkZuckerberg #orders #Meta #offices to remove #tampons from #mens #bathrooms
Once available for #trans and #nonbinary #employees who used the #mensbathroom, the #tampons have been #scrapped as part of #MarkZuckerberg’s #antiLGBTQ+ #policy spree, which appears to be in response to #ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump’s #election #victory.

ok i love them but #instacart is being a pain in the ass.
they obstruct the lower right corner on the boxes of #tampons because i didn't know that purple meant "this one" yet.
next time i will remember but a dumb thing to hide. then again it's probably on purpose because like 30 listings in there are all #sponsored so the more i tap on these, the more tampax gotta pay, right? #advertising
a dark pattern that inconveniences menstruating #women AND generates more revenue. don't expect fixes
Ich bin ...
ähm
ich hab keine Worte.
Denn
"Fehlende Studien zur Metallaufnahme über Vaginalschleimhaut"
Was ich für den wichtigsten Punkt halte.
Ich hoffe, dass dies bald geklärt wird.

The evening stands to be a high-stakes distillation of the #Hateful Republican #Culturewars largely defining this #national #Political #contest, with nasty #digs referencing “#childlesscatladies,” #tampons in boys’ #bathrooms, and pet-hunting #Haitians flying across the stage from the start.

Democrat school gun safety plan; tampons

When Walz passed a law in Minnesota to provide tampons the locations were left to the discretion of schools. Now a policy revision will consider having them available in all rooms as a precaution in case of a gun attack.

Study finds heavy metals in tampons:
Tests on 30 products purchased in #NewYork, #Athens, and #London have found some contained dangerous levels of arsenic, chromium, and even lead. 
16 metals were tested and all were detected in at least one #tampon.
Several metals were detected in all samples, including #arsenic, #cadmium, #chromium, #lead, and #vanadium.
#Organic #tampons had higher levels of arsenic, but non-organic tampons had higher levels of lead.
Writing in the journal, Environment International, researchers said: 'There is no safe exposure level to lead. “Any proportion of lead that may leach out of a tampon and reach systemic circulation might contribute to negative health outcomes.”
TOTM are probably one of the best options if you're in the UK (see https://ethicalrevolution.co.uk/link/totm and check out some of the other 'Best Buys' recommended by Ethical Consumer Magazine: https://www.ethicalconsumer.org/health-beauty/shopping-guide/sanitary-products).

Mehrwertsteuersenkung für Tampons und Binden laut Studie verpufft
Die Mehrwertsteuer auf Binden und Tampons wurde 2020 reduziert, um Frauen finanziell zu entlasten. Eine Studie moniert jetzt gleichzeitige Preiserhöhungen bei Slipeinlagen - diese waren von der Maßnahme ausgenommen.

the irony of “Tampon Tim”? #tampons and maxi pads are the unspoken recommended items to have in military grade, first aid kit for hunters.
not only do tampons make great kindle starters but they, as menstrual pads, are good at staunching gun shot wounds in the event of a friendly-fire accident.
and i have been told it's the all cotton tampons they prefer. all cotton pads are helpful but because they're used externally, don't have to go all-cotton for those.

"[Jill] Burcum, who is on the newspaper’s editorial board, suggested that Kelly do a 'thing called journalism' before commenting and gifted a link to an article from the board that called out the former Fox News host, among others, with a

Mediaite · Megyn Kelly’s Claim Tim Walz ‘Forced’ Tampons Into Boys Bathrooms Debunked By Minnesota JournalistStar Tribune writer Burcum hit back at Kelly with a debunk of her claim Walz “forced 4th grade boys to have tampons in their school bathrooms.”
Minneapolis Star-Tribune does a "reality check" on the Tampon Tim meme that toxic right-wingers like Megyn Kelly are using to attack Tim Walz and finds:
"Critics contend, wrongly, that it mandates menstrual products in boys’ bathrooms. This has unfortunately been used to stoke ongoing culture wars over transgender individuals."
