Tampons are a luxury!
Tampons are a necessity for women in general, actually, because tampons bad for vaginal health in women are, are really the last thing you need, pure luxury, there are many other options of menstruation, most of them less expensive than Pads or no pads - Menstrual cups and the free circulation of methods, to name a few.
FYI Movement methods include the use of something free from bleeding, prevent blood sample, the layers of clothing outside the clothing or instinctive means if a woman learns that they recognize the need to bleed, can go to the toilet, the blood - as such is not only free of menstruationUAL option, it also means that there is no reason for a woman "dripping onto the floor, unless she was mentally unstable.
Tampons cause serious damage to health, from vaginal infections to toxic shock syndrome and tampons before the law are the 1994 buffer trade reform also toxins that cause cancer [dioxin]. Help buffer to cause significant ecological damage to a woman's average life of 12,000 tampons, the manufacture of tampons, with only 305 trees used does not use organic cotton, chemicals and energy, and buffers, to be marketed, water supplies in the billions per year .
In my opinion, are not taxed enough, I remember the struggle to reduce taxes on stamps, I supported the cause at this time, but people do not know enough about the problems with the buffer [health, environmental, ethical and political, Social], where, as it is now a large number of men and women, the store in exchange for the manufacture of tampons and secure work for women - decisions that the tax money from taxpayersNo environmental costs and the cost to the NHS.
