I hope those who are complaining carry around their own toilet paper and would never accept any off the free roll in the facilities.
Toilet paper in a public restroom isn't the same as tampons any more that shaving is the same as menstruating.

The world has gone mad.
Amen! It's getting to the point that I may start my own womens' march.

The "All normal women who pay for their own crap and are sick to death of whiny women bitching about dumb shat!" women's march.

Who is with me?

Entitlement mentality. Everything should be free, right?

Somehow, the #metoo/feminists will find a way to justify this: WHO | The men?s health gap: men must be included in the global health equity agenda

I can hear them now: "The WHO? Sexist patriarchy, that's who!"
You are talking "personal responsibility", I believe that is something of the past. I remember it, taught it to my kids, but............

Actually, many are using a new device that is sort of a cork. It is a reusable cup, much more environmentally friendly and in the long run saves money, lots of money actually. I would think college students would want to save the environment, so..............

Best response ^^^.

I suspect the dispensers in the men's room would be for transgendered males.

But, for those that did not click on the article: https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=10432

Per that article:

"During the meeting, some senators pointed out that free menstrual products are already available on campus through the Field and Fork Pantry."

"Students are allowed to take up to three bags of menstrual products per week—each containing eight tampons, five liners, and five pads—but student activists retorted that the option is too limited."

If that isn't adequate ^^^, then the female needs to see a physician. Seriously, that is a total in a month of 32 tampons, 20 liners and 20 pads.

***Count me in for the "Normal women" march! I am tired of being embarrassed as a woman in this country! We need to let the world know the majority of women are not like this in our country!!!

I'm with you in spirit but I'm too busy working to pay for my crap and take care of my family to actually physically march.

This is there Facebook page - it's hopping - not - I added a post composed of many of your thoughts here - unfortunately - it has to be approved by the administrators of the page - talk about Free Speech!

I'm a normal woman - I paid for my own monthly needs - these kids are really off in LaLa Land. Also all this carp will be on the net forever for everyone to see - so good luck explaining to employers your stupidity and support for these outrageous protests.

Because 55% of the student population is female and other Universities give these away - they want it too. Guess if you have an up and coming college freshman - you better check if she's female what their college choices provide so they don't end up embarrassing you with this drivel.

Lol. It will on the weekend but, if like so many that are working 9 jobs to pay for their own crap, please send in your cardboard cut-out...I will affix on a large stick with the caption "2mares is pizzed off too but she works unlike so many of the lazy!"

We will be burning pink hats & chanting witty things like "Get a job!" And "Get out of my wallet, whiny slackers!"

Tuition comes from "other people's money". Their parents, the taxpayers, etc, etc.

Yeah. Agree with all this. I am a woman and these young morons do not reflect me in any way what-so-ever. They are embarrassing themselves, and I am embarrassed FOR them. Not only because they expect others to pay for their needs, but because they chose to display their demands and their outrage is such a disgusting and juvenile manner.

They are spoiled children. Spoiled children who get red faced and stomp their feet, who forget that the world doesn't give ONE DAMN about them (and that the only people who truly think that they're special are mommy and daddy), should not get what they want. The adults in the room need to start acting like the adults in the room, and these children need to be told to sit the hell down and shut the hell up.

Empowerment for women?? Cute little talking point. Now go vote as you have been told, little girls.
