Young Australian of the year. Girl who claims that females are dropping out of school and not going to work because they can't afford tampons. I just looked and I could get 42 tampons for the price of a glass of wine in a bar which women seem to love so much . $3.50 for a pack of 16.

It's such blatant propaganda but what drives me insane is that people fall for it.

It's madness.

ramnet88 · 2021-01-26T06:21:42+00:00

You answered your own question.

Why do you think they like it so much? Because women don't pay for drinks at bars themselves.

Getting someone to buy you tampons is a lot harder.

Lmfao period poverty absolutely does not exist in any developed nations. Like how can people believe this shit without any questions 🤯. But she's right that it's an issue in 3rd world countries, I'll admit that. However she's selling her products in Australia so this is just virtue signalling

rationed_male · 2021-01-26T07:50:30+00:00

And they are all sharing their period poverty stories on iPhones clicking away with false nails

f3wl · 2021-01-26T06:21:49+00:00

$3.50/oz at most of the wine bars here. Lot of white women with divorce gains.

A bunch of beta NPCs got upset at me on the Australian sub reddit for pointing out the double standard in Australian society when it comes to the treatment of men & women.

2021-01-26T06:01:35+00:00

Just realised I got my maths wrong with the numbers ... but you get the picture .

The-truth-hurts1 · 2021-01-26T07:28:05+00:00

I don’t think the price of tampons is causing anyone financial issues here.. just another obvious “poor females” made up issue

Rex-Holes · 2021-01-26T08:00:25+00:00

Yet they can afford make-up...

peshMeten · 2021-01-26T09:33:21+00:00

Put these on your list, when the zombie apocalypse comes, these are the must have items to make you very popular.

Small loyal army
Tampons
Bic lighters
toilet paper
vodka and alcohol still
Cigarettes
lamp oil
Bullits
tinned food, apparently the women during the Bosnian conflict would give themselves for a tin of corned beef.
Corned Beef

Just Having a laugh, but these were the most popular traded items in the Bosnian conflict.

Nothing screams being independent more than the state paying for you.

jhooperp · 2021-01-26T07:31:09+00:00

“Period poverty”🤦🏻‍♂️

liberalbutnotcrazy · 2021-01-26T13:33:50+00:00

FYI... they were referring to women in 3rd world countries needing to drop out, not Australian women

rayedward363 · 2021-01-26T21:24:30+00:00

Hundreds of thousands spent on lobbying, campaigning, and outright bribing politicians saves women a pittance a year on one of the cheapest items you can buy in terms of hygiene.

Crissis_X · 2021-01-26T10:43:33+00:00

I tought they were "strong and independend". They are switching from "I am a powerful independent woman" to "I'm oppressed by the patriarchy" faster than I switch my socks. How do people believe their shit anymore ?

gtowerthrowaway · 2021-01-26T10:59:55+00:00

Who's going to pay for my deodorant?

maokei · 2021-01-26T11:17:16+00:00

Next level of entitlement. If they can't afford tampons in a developed country they are failing hard at life.

Throwthe8827 · 2021-01-26T12:12:11+00:00

Compare to chocolate prices or any other products women can’t live without... like beauty products and you will see the lies.

2021-01-26T14:34:06+00:00

If $3.50 is enough of a roadblock to make women give up on their dreams then we really have to question how competent women as a group really are.

tsundokume · 2021-01-26T15:30:27+00:00

How did girls manage to go to school before tampons existed then?

TigPlaze · 2021-01-26T15:38:21+00:00

"Buy your own damn tampons and I'll buy my own shit and not bother you."

Women are so "oppressed" that we have to buy their damn tampons now? Who dreams up this stupid BS?

LotBuilder · 2021-01-26T17:11:48+00:00

There’s a certain type of woman that will do or say anything not to have to work or go to school or do anything remotely hard. The poor guy that marries this lazy broad is going to be miserable

mgtowthroww · 2021-01-26T19:37:06+00:00

These new girls treat feminism like it's still the 1920s. No body has yet told them that the wage gap is a myth, male suicide is 5x that of women, men are constantly discriminated against in family court.

Shame to the media for ignoring the plight of men.

javaman131 · 2021-01-26T20:00:50+00:00

I don't understand this notion of free tampons, the level of entitlement that women are owed something free because reasons.

With that said, in the US tampons are taxed as luxury items, so the tax is higher, which is complete bullshit.

But asking women to pick the fights that make sense and logical is like asking my cat to do my income taxes.

Revorob · 2021-01-26T10:27:09+00:00

Grace Tame is yet another piss-poor choice for AoTY. Why is anyone surprised shecomes out with nonsense like this?

3.50 for some wine at a bar? Where you at? Lol, sign me up

JunhoSun · 2021-01-26T11:59:15+00:00

This is equivalent to "men dropping out of school cause they can't afford razors to adjust/shave their facial hair".

What's that? It's not the same?

Well then, just put a fucking rag in your pants and we'll use scissors or hell even glass to shave and call it even.

Both are inconvenient at best if not being able to care off.

jacob_prager · 2021-01-26T12:20:16+00:00

Most wymyn do not realize that their life full of twitter feminism and champagne communism has been provided by men doing engineering, technology and architecture. In a way, wymyn like her are not far from spoilt children. The reason men fall for it more and more is the destructive power of social media technology (built by men): wymyn destroy other people by gossip and shaming. Social media is the best tool for this feminine terrorism ever built.

xmetalmanx013 · 2021-01-26T13:01:50+00:00

I see this as being entirely about getting attention. That’s it. Everything wimmin do is for attention. To them it’s like sunlight to a plant.

xdrunkagainx · 2021-01-26T13:25:41+00:00

I didn't know they had access to Cherokee hair in Australia

Meneghette--steam · 2021-01-26T12:36:05+00:00

Bro im From a 3° world country and this excuse dont exist

NickTesla2018 · 2021-01-26T12:54:41+00:00

Reminds me of an ex who complained about how she had to pay for the expensive birth control pill. (Note - I never trusted her, and always used protection anyway) Never mind, I was basically paying for everything else in the relationship. And which do you think would be less expensive in the long run, birth control or a rugrat?! GTFO

fredanderssen · 2021-01-26T08:32:31+00:00

Maybe they could reuse the tampons and maxi-pads to save money.
