National period day? I thought it would at least be national period week.

[–]fgrsentinel 5 points6 points7 points 6 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

Don't women already have 1-3 more holidays dedicated to them than men do? We've got Father's Day that people barely celebrate and International Men's Day that most people don't even know exists and half the ones that do don't even want us to talk about it or men's problems on that day.

[–]username2136 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

Hold on, you mean to say we actually have a men's day? I thought this was something MRAs are pushing for but to no avail. When is it?

[–]fgrsentinel 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

International Men's Day is on November 19th. Last I heard, there was a feminist in British Parliament that got a ton of flak for trying to shut down any attempts to schedule time to talk about men's problems on International Men's Day until a bunch of BS conditions were met that would guarantee nobody would talk about them anyways.

[–]username2136 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I think York University tried to hold a IMD conference in 2015 (or 14 Idr) and a bunch of feminists quickly shut it down. One of them wrote an article soon after on one of the liberal biased sites on why we don’t need an IMD.

[–]fgrsentinel 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Personally, I think if we have feminists trying to shut down IMD conferences and end IMD, it should be taken as proof that not only is IMD needed, but ensuring that it can be celebrated safely is necessary.

Menstrual equity?! Why is it that men are now supposed to further subsidize women's needs? What needs of men are women going to subsidize?

[+]welcometothejl -6 points-5 points-4 points 6 years ago (17 children) | Copy Link

Not only should feminine hygiene products be tax free, women should periodically be able to get free tampons and pads. Men don't bleed once a month and we don't have to deal with the associated costs. I don't know about you, but I think we got the better end of the deal on this one. If we don't stick to the real issues on here we run the risk of branding the movement as a bunch of petty complainers.

[–]valenin 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

tax free... free...

Nothing’s free.

...men don’t have to deal with the associated costs...

Play the lottery. You seriously have amazing luck.

[–]welcometothejl -1 points0 points1 point 6 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

I guess I am lucky enough not to get hung up on something as trivial as this.

[–]Historybuffman 7 points8 points9 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Women also don't require higher calories (where's our free food supplements!?) and aren't required to be drafted in times of war.

Which one of us gets the better end of the stick? Keep it all in context.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Those are valid points, I retract my op.

[–]username2136 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Yeah paying <$8 for some pads or tampons every once in a while sounds like nothing compared to

-being drafted

-losing your wife or kids over something she dreamed about

-paying three months salary for a rock glued to a hoop of metal just to prove you love someone and even that isn't enough sometimes

-be beaten up by the opposite sex and not be believed or told that it was all your fault and at the same time not being allowed to fight back because she can just get you arrested as she can do that anyway at will

-you can be raped and be sued for child support while the woman barely gets a slap on the wrist

-cramps definitely aren't fun (as I get leg and foot cramps all the time) but at least you can't die from internal bleeding or become infertile if the testicles have sustained enough damage.

-risking a false accusation if you approach any female at all

-and many more

Even if you aren't an MRA, you'd have to be living under a rock if you cannot see how this is going to be a huge detriment of society as a whole.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

We can acknowledge the struggles of women while still advocating for men's rights. I'm not trying to be the male version of a feminist, I actually want equality. Someone here made a good point that I hadn't considered, and that is men need more calories than women. But I don't pay taxes on food which is a necessity, so I don't see the harm in what these politicians are advocating, which is that women shouldn't have to pay taxes for feminine hygiene products. I don't see why this is an issue worth sharing on here.

[–]username2136 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

That makes sense. I didn’t mean to make it sound like I didn’t want women’s rights. I was a little confused actually because I thought you wanted to get rid of the cost of feminine hygiene products entirely. My bad.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Initially I did say I want to get rid of the cost of feminine products, until it was pointed out that men need more calories, so it feels like a wash. That was my bad.

[–]username2136 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Understandable, I also would have pointed out that the feminine hygiene products are businesses too so they need money from customers to continue making more and possibly finding new ways to perfect them. If we cut it off entirely, they might get our taxes but they wouldn’t be motivated to improve the product because they will likely not get any pay increase.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

I dont think you know what free means.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

Do you argue at the people giving away free samples at the grocery store that their samples actually cost the store pennies?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

I dont understand what you are saying.

Those samples are given to the customer at no cost to them. They not free. The store or the manufacturer are paying for them.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Right, I am using the word free just as anyone would. You seem to be more interested in arguing semantics while missing the point entirely.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

No the point is someone is paying for the products you want to give to women at no cost. That is money out of someone's pocket. Stores, tax payers, manufacturers, someone.

Women can pay for their own hygiene products.

[–]welcometothejl 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yeah, I know what you're saying. If you read through the comments someone made a good point that men require more food than women and so the extra cost of their feminine products VS the extra cost of food men need is kind of a wash. So I'm on board with the consensus that women shouldn't get feminine products at no immediate cost to them, but by levying a very marginal tax on men, women, and corporations in order to secure the funds necessary for products deemed necessary for feminine hygiene. (Do you see why it's easier just to say free?) But I get the real issue, you gotta feel like the smartest guy in the room.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Not smart just have to work so hard for my money that I'm not giving it to anyone to buy shit they should work for.

[–]Amesang 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Wasn't it the case some years back that such products were listed as a "luxury" because the "luxury tax" was actually less than the general tax?

I mean, why hit a rarely used product with a higher tax when you could put a higher tax on more commonly used products like toothpaste or toilet paper and earn more money?
