im not trying to make a political statement, i just think its a huge waste of money to cater towards a very very small minority in the interest of being politically correct.
My idiots at work are just trying to find more ingenious ways of using them. One dude spilled a bit of his coffee yesterday and used 2 tampons to mop it up

They probably cause more hazing than anything else lol | So we should never change anything because toxic masculinity exists. Cool.

Why can't they start putting condoms in all the bathrooms that would probably get more use and probably save a bunch of unwanted kids being born into this world and prevent STI's.
Free tampons though, alright.

It's a good idea and a logical next step. Why don't you contact your local MP and suggest it as one?

How would that be any different than stealing office supplies? I guarantee you people are going to be made examples out of over this.

Office supply vs medical supply. Total same order of magnitude. /s
Seriously, if this sort of thing upsets anyone, those people are pieces of shit.

It doesn’t upset me lol I’m legitimately asking who this helps/who it’s for in work places where it’s all men, or it’s only a men’s bathroom/changeroom
What a complete waste of resources that could actually go towards people who actually need them for the sake of Trudeaus PC campaign. It’s nothing else
It’s also quite the slap in the face for women who have been asking for this for decades in schools, workplaces etc. and it never happened, but now they are in the men’s bathroom lol.
I know a lot of women who are not conservative whatsoever not engaged in politics, and even they are starting to scratch their heads at some of this shit. Again, nice job at alienating the very few people who still support you JT.

Even if just for the basic reason that no manager with even 1/10th of a brain would ever question someone over anything body related and risk a human rights complaint lol...

Anyways, I'm not angry or upset by seeing tampons in the mens room it doesn't affect my life, I just think of the list of free shit that would be useful in there womens tampons wouldn't crack the top 5.

| This logic can be used to deride every single assistance program on earth though. Any reasonable wife out there is going to be like "bitch I don't want your work's bathroom tampons... they don't even fit and not the brand I like etc etc etc"
Yah there's going to be some people who steal them. That's what happens with free stuff, there's always a motherfucker somewhere. That doesn't mean you don't do stuff because of that 1 motherfucker.

Lol I was going to say, the people caliming they'll be swiped clearly have never even touched a tampon before or they'd know people are very particular about them. They'd only use something that isn't their normal one in a pinch. Quote:

Really they should just be free everywhere for everyone who needs them since nobody can really choose if they need them or not, but apparently that's communism or something.

I mean you can't argue that something shouldn't be done because it's 1% useful and then also argue that because of 1% bad people something also shouldn't be done. Changing the weight of the 99% to suit your views each time. | My argument is if you're going to put the time and money into putting free things in a restroom for peoples convenience why not cater it to the gender that's going to be using that room 99.9% of the time. The percentage of these being stolen vs actually helping someone in a pinch is nowhere close in my opinion.
Anyways it's just a topic that came up, you don't have to be an angry white man just because you think money can be better spent elsewhere.

Dog, the price of rolling those free tampons and pads is like a fart in the wind when it comes down to fiscal policy/cost.
Not a big deal to me at all, and I think it's fine to provide them to people. Some don't realize but a lot of cultures don't talk about periods or facilitate their children with the products needed to kids when puberty hits. I've heard stories of teacher friends having students flowing in class onto their chairs because in their culture it's not talked about or shamed upon.
Having it in the guy's bathroom? Meh, kinda stupid, but we live in stupid times.
Flushing them down the toilet? You're a fucking asshole if so.
