Having heard that the Government is set to continue taxing periods I am up in arms. I believe, if I have heard correctly, that the 'tax money' will be spent on women's health charities women's shelters etc. Whilst this is all very commendable women who attend shelters are 'forced' to use them because of the men who have been abusing them so why are other women having to pay, through the taxing of sanitary products, the funding for these and am I the only one questioning this? Surely the MEN should be the one's who have to pay for abusing women - not other women. From other posts I believe that some shaving products are not taxed. That should be changed immediately and the tax on sanitary products scrapped. I still don't view having a period as a luxury and indeed never have done so. They are absolutely awful. If I had powers for a day I would make men 'enjoy' everything associated with menstruation on a daily basis. I feel sure that they would think twice about it then, it is no luxury.
