Imagine this protest in a muslim country. Or a masculine Christian country like Russia*.

* -- search: Cossacks and pussy riot for funny video

The reality of this (grip strength - men on L, women on R):



is something feminists deny. Many western women are so far detached from reality. Hollywood reinforces this with 100lb Mary Sues that routinely defeat 200 lb men in hand to hand combat.

The only thing that allows women to behave in such a childish manner is the western man's patience and tolerance.

Western men have helped create this monster by enabling and protecting feminists and their radical ideology. They're like spoiled children.

They can't handle being told "No".

Food, water, and shelter are necessities. I demand them to all be tax free as well.

Why are they protesting the end of sales tax on tampons only? Why don't they protest the end of sales tax on everything?

I would think that if they are this hurt over sales tax and the cost of said products, why not just go in together and start a company that makes quality products and sells them for cheap. You don't even have to charge taxes to your customers, although you'll still owe the government for taxes. This way everyone wins, they get some cash from the company and women all over get a quality product for cheap.

the American society needs to start just blanket saying “No” and walking away from silliness like this. You aren’t owed shite, no one is.

They’re gonna need to hose off the ground once the protest is done. Can’t have rivers of blood all over the campus.

They are lucky that they don’t have additional taxes to pay for medical waste disposal or to pay for the damage done to plumbing systems when they flush tampons regardless of them saying they never do this.

Burlap, an old t-shirt, straw, hay, an oily rag. There are plenty of options to avoid 4 or 5 cents on the dollar.

Of course it's not unconstitutional, but, to be fair, they should be tax exempt. I mean they are essentially a medical product.
