Britain became one of the few countries in the world to pass legislation abolishing the 'sexist' tax on sanitary products, garnering widespread acclaim from women's rights groups and of course, Brexit supporters.

Amazing news! After almost two decades of fiery debate, Australia has finally relinquished the 10% tax on menstrual hygiene products, which were considered a "luxury" item. Read more here.

Tennessee lawmakers resist lifting tampon tax because women might buy too many, god #forbid women buy too many items of things she may need, call me toxic shocked. I mean why is a woman thinking about the needs of her body, good on those Tennesse #lawmakers resisting the lifting of the tampon tax, how dare women not have control over their bodies, how dare she #mensturate. We need to bring the #menstruation shack back, menstruation is an attack on standards, conventions & #traditional tradition. #kingsburywine #toxicshocksyndrome #tampon #tampontax #pinktax #tampontaxmustfall #tennessee #tennesseewhiskey #mensttruationshack (at Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8i6phlpJmY/?igshid=2jnyx87dpzf8

@periodmovement and @seventhgeneration have been sharing about #nationalperiodday and today I'm going to call @nygovcuomo to thank him for passing a law that will make menstrual products in New York State disclose their ingredients and ask him to stop taxing these products because we shouldn't be taxed just because we were born female! I'm also going to ask @andrewcuomo to continue pursuing safety and progress in New York State's Personal Care Laws by banning fragrance from menstrual products. Fragrance is a blanket ingredient that can consist of hundreds of chemicals including those linked to cancer, infertility, and birth defects; Fragrance as an ingredient absolutely should not be anywhere near our lady parts! Join me and comment below how you're supporting the #MenstrualMovement today! 💪🏽 👛 👙 . . . #notaxationwithoutrepresentation #femaletax #periodpower #destigmatize #betterbeauty #getfragranceout #tampontax #ilovenewyork #newyork #newyorkperiodproducts #menstruallaws #getyiurlawsoffmyovaries #discloseingredients #tamponingredientslist https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zIV9Sg7xZ/?igshid=7vur72cydumg

TAMPON TAX for @1215today. The tampon tax has always been a bitter pill to swallow. Then a couple of months ago it was announced that organisations that work with disadvantaged girls and women could apply for funding from the tax. Although it still felt unjust that essentially women would have to fund these things it was still progress. However it has emerged this week a charity 'organisation life' has been awarded a quarter of a million pounds. 'Organisation life' is an anti abortion and anti-choice charity, a group that is known to use scaremongering and terminology such 'the death penalty' when referring to ending a pregnancy. As Suzanne Moore so aptly put it 'Women’s bodies are taxed for simply functioning and then this money is given to those who would restrict what we can do with them' 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ #illustration #theresamay #tampontax #feminism #mybodymychoice #politicalcartoon #womensmarch #resist

South Africa has finally declared menstrual products tax-free! Taxing menstrual products makes them less affordable and accessible, especially for low-income consumers. Many young girls end up missing school because they cannot afford to manage their periods. South Africa’s decision to lift the tax on sanitary pads will make it possible for more young girls receive an education, among other benefits. Read more here.

Women's Protest Idea
Ladies. Since men, especially our government, are hellbent on governing our bodies, defunding our access to healthcare, and taxing our hygiene products, let's make our voices heard in a way they won't be able to ignore. If Planned Parenthood loses funding (or let's just go for it now and save time waiting for the ball to drop), let's mail our used pads and tampons to the orange man in the White House himself. That's right, used. Save them. Box them. Ship them to the White House. Or you local representatives/legislators signing bills against our bodies. 💁🏻💁🏼💁🏽💁🏾💁🏿

Is the pink tax right? Read the debate and vote at @4bnewsworld
Although some US states have eliminated taxing female sanitary products, countries around the world, such as Iceland, Albania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Argentina still add a 20% tax to them.

#TamponTax: l’imposta che dissangua il #portafoglio delle donne!
Ad influire sull’emotività di una #donna in “quei” giorni, non bastano gli sbalzi ormonali, i cerotti per i dolori #mestruali e/o le bustine di #ibuprofene. Troppo semplice! Avete notato che gli #assorbenti più adatti alle nostre esigenze, sono spesso anche i più cari?
Leggi il resto cliccando sulla foto 😟💰😟
