Rep. Grace Meng wants to pass the “Menstrual Equity for All Act of 2017,” which would require all businesses with more than 100 employees to provide free tampons for female employees

Can I get my electric razor paid-for too? I want one of those Braun wet & dry cordless shavers I can use in the shower! Surely, my employers don't want me looking like an antediluvian cave-dweller while I cudgel tapirs to death with a femur-mace at the watering hole?

Also, what about my right to menstruate? Why am I denied that liberty by the arbitrary social construct of 'biology'? Equal rights! Equal rights! I wanna bleed-out my ass and kvetch like a martyr!

Shouldn't all male employees get free tampons too then, under Title 9?

It hard to believe that feminists are asking for this. It is so petty that it is embarrassing.

I've met people who's businesses are paralyzed at 49 employees because they don't make enough revenue to pay for Obamacare, which takes effect at 50 (IIRC). Do we really want to stack more roadblocks on growing businesses? This isn't how we encourage entrepreneurship and market competition.

Given how rough the toilet paper is at any job a I've had, I'm not sure why women are fighting for this.

If this was part of something that provided entire wardrobes I guess I might be okay with it but only sponsoring one piece of clothing for one gender seems wrong.

If they do this then they should have to buy guys free briefs.
