The University of Wisconsin Associated Students of Madison announced Wednesday they will implement a pilot program that provides free menstrual products in three buildings on campus starting by the end of April.
Helen C. White Hall, Sterling Hall and The Red Gym will be the first on-campus buildings to carry free products. Helen C. White and Sterling will have menstrual products carried in all women’s restrooms and The Red Gym will carry them in all women’s, men’s and gender-neutral restrooms.
Say what? Menstrual products available in the men's bathroom?
Morrison said they looked at what would be most cost efficient for the university.
Well - no, not really. Are you REALLY looking at cost effectiveness when you put menstrual products in the men's bathroom?
So what is the BFD? If they are rarely used, there will be little cost. And if your gf runs out of them while you are out and about, you will be damned happy to oblige with a quick trip to the men's room. Unless you like hanging out with grouchy people with bloody pants, that is.
Or bloody chairs at work. When my boss many years ago complained that I was going to the bathroom too much, I asked him if he would like to buy me a new chair every month instead? He never mentioned it again.
Anybody that believes they get this stuff fo "free", isn't living in the REAL world!
Definitely. Let's just use the coin op machines we have now that never work. I really want to sit on a bus or a chair in a public place where someone has been actively bleeding with no hygiene product except wadded up toilet paper.

They can use them for nose bleeds.
Hey, when Kelly Johnson and his crew at the Lockheed 'Skunk Works' were developing one of their airplanes they used them to absorb a pesky hydraulic fluid leak.

You have my respect for what you go through with your bodies.

Gender-Neutral Restrooms will never work, as men aren't going to queue for a cubicle when they can just use the sinks.
Men's bathrooms stink and are often disgusting, and believe me women don't know how lucky they are.
You will also no doubt get all the pervs hanging around such gender neutral places, making it less safe for everyone.
