Should sanitary products be tax exempt?
A "tampon tax" is where sanitary products are taxed as luxury items, as opposed to medical items which are not taxed. Some argue that single-use products are wasteful and a luxury; others argue that women do not choose to have periods and should therefore not have to pay tax on what can be costly products, the expense of which stacks up for women over time.

In this, yeah I think they should be. As a woman, I don't want to have monthly bleeding where I wonder if I'm losing more blood than I have in my entire body, I don't want to be so cramped I feel like there is a manual blender in my stomach that is slowly turning my insides around, and I don't want to have to wear dark pants because I'm scared of bleeding through....both at night and at day. So yeah, "Have a happy period" my sweet tushy, give me something good like a tax exempt necessity. Side: Yes, they should be exempt
