it’s just something i’ve observed that men tend to overlook it because they don’t experience them. it’s not necessarily a blame thing it’s just that they’re less likely to bring them when they bring other stuff like shampoo and soap

Well lowkey they do and I’ve been around a lot of weak men who are too scared to even go near that aisle of the store or even get it for their gf nonetheless buy tons of boxes, to be fair women probably forget face razors for men sometimes as well because we don’t need to think about shaving our face but I’ll often see razors for shaving legs thrown in on bid donation hauls. All to say it wasn’t meant to be offensive more of a notice to men to take action and buy these things next time they can

maybe they do, but not everyone thinks abt that immediately. if they’re giving food and resources to the less fortunate, they’re doing a good job. do they think abt everything, no. but we can’t expect everyone to think abt everything, they’re still acting selflessly and focusing on the negative doesn’t help

Right so that was kinda my point homie you’re not evil for not buying these things but when women are using washcloths and t-shirts as pads we do need to bring more awareness to period products. You’re getting offended for no reason, no one is mad people just donate food everyone is extremely grateful and appreciative you’re the only one here assuming it’s not enough, but if you can afford it, and don’t often think of it, why is it bad to post about it to bring awareness to the subject?
