Being a Beneficiary with a Period Sucks

in beneficiary •  7 years ago 

I can't imagine how difficult that must be.

Here in the USA, indigenous girls on the reservations often miss school during their period because of poverty. The government pro ides food subsidies, but there are no tampon subsidies.

I see homeless women who cannot afford tampons, they have no where to clean up.

Judgement sucks. People could use the same energy to develop empathy. It's heart breaking that humanity prefers to be callous.

It's so screwed up that there are so many people (and very significantly Indigenous peoples) that miss out on what is basic human health care/hygiene or whatever it comes under!

I feel we need more empathy in the world too.
