Feminist leader Jessica Valenti (NARAL Director and Planned Parenthood heroine, wants government to provide free tampons for all. It’s just not fair that women have to pay for their menstrual care products.

Valenti tweeted this out last week.

It’s a human rights issue.
NewsBusters reported:

Last week, Jessica Valenti (Feministing founder, NARAL director and Planned Parenthood heroineasked via Twitter, “Anyone know a country where tampons are free or somehow subsidized?” The question sparked an obnoxious social media backlash, which, in turn, sparked an obnoxious retort by Valenti in her column for The Guardian: “The case for free tampons.” The liberal media, from Cosmo to TIME, followed suit with the “compelling argument” and “great idea.”

“The high cost of a product that half the population needs multiple times a day, every month for approximately 30 years,” Valenti began in her August 11 piece, “is simply, well, bullshit.”

But cost was hardly the crux of Valenti’s argument. “This is less an issue of costliness than it is of principle,” she later admitted, because “menstrual care is health care.”
