This is totally random but I saw a newsfeed that was asking the cost of 'being a woman' . There was an on-line calculator to work out how much you had spent in a lifetime on sanitary products. Implications were that women were hard done to!
Curiosity got the better of me so I took the test and the result was I had spent something like £1,666 in my LIFETIME on pads and tampons! (from age 12-55) Mmmmm....do I feel hard done to over 40+ years? I thought about the amount of money I have spent on hair cuts, make-up, perfume, tanning, clothes etc which FAR outweigh the feminine products! I am still continuing to do so. DH doesn't spend anything like what I spend on 'looking good' (or trying to )
My question is: Do you feel hard done to? Is it such a massive output in the grand scale of things? Would cessation of tax on sanitary products make such an inpact on your life over so many years?
Sorry to go on but it amused me ....
It might seem an odd question but…..
