Ladies Life Improvement

Did you know that the average woman spends $6,000+ on products that are needed for their menstrual cycle? 

The picture above is one of the alternatives to tampons. These are reusable cups that help reduce the costliness and “luxury” of tampons. Although, products like this exist, we have to understand that many women still would not feel comfortable using something that has once been exposed to blood. This means that one time use tampons in fact need to become less expensive and cut off from all kinds of taxes.

It is time to realize the difference between luxury and necessity. The least we should be able to do is to pay retail price for #tampons without any taxes. Our first goal should be to get rid of taxes on tampons. After that we will work towards making tampons free for all our women. Only way we can start it is by starting in our communities TODAY.

Seems like we are far away from the goal. But surely we shall see the pink states change color, especially Florida. The time to take action is always now!!!!!

Tampa woman seeks end of 'tampon tax'

A Tampa woman has filed a class-action lawsuit designed to repeal Florida’s sales tax on tampons and refund millions of dollars to customers who have paid it.

We need more people like this on our side. Not only women have to pay for tampon products but they also need to pay extra on top of the actual price. This is what we are fighting for. 

Make sure you check our new post on Friday, where we break down the amount of money that #womenofTampaBay are paying throughout the year.
