Texas has voted to get rid of the tampon tax!!! ((along with taxes on many other products)) bill 379 and had full bipartisan support in both the house and senate. the bill has yet to be signed by the governor (as it was only enrolled on the 29th) and would go in affect on september 1st 2023. this is exciting news and should help to end period poverty in texas!!
maybe the only "advantage" of being trans tho I kinda often wish I had periods (to be part of those conversations and shared experiences) so maybe not an advantage I'm so sorry for you girlies tho :(((
y'all are kinda lucky (ik it sucks but atleast 6th grade is a good time) i'm in 7th grade and still don't have it, everyone treats me like a kid i rlly hate it :((
I got my first period in the middle of ninth grade. I felt so freaking late, didn't realize how heavy they really are, and did bleed through a little a couple times but ended up ok.
I got my period on the last day of 2nd grade. I wasn’t scared ,because when I was 5 years old I did my due diligence and realized that I wanted to know how and why my body works. I was wearing white underwear, I went to the bathroom, I saw the blood and thought "Oh, my period. This is a little early, but okay." Lucky this was one of the only times my mother came to the party and I told my mother "Mom, I think I got my period." My mother wanted to check, she agreed and gave me a panty liner. The lesson of story is be proactive and understand your body. DON'T wait for other to explain something to you, but they probably won't explain well or accurately.
I am in my junior year of high school and I just now got my period! I could swear I was never going to start and actually had a dr appt for a week later! Glad I finally started!
I got my period two years ago when I was 14 all my friends had theirs already so I felt peer pressured and in faith grade we had a puberty class so I knew what to expect I remember it was in December of 2020 and I got home from my grandma's house and saw it in my underwear and was like oh I have this now good that's my period story
Bro, I am so mad because my school doesn’t have a health class so it doesn’t teaches about this stuff so when I watch you you’re like my health class or something and it makes me so happy that you’re so confident I. Love you ❤
I think the government should provide period products for free if women want to apply for them. Like we can get a 1 year worth of products every year and a tax rebate if we apply for the menstrual cup only. That way women can still choose if they want to buy products in the store like if you have preference but women who may not be able to afford products have free options. Also, I think medical professionals and the government etc. should promote the menstrual cup to the younger generation They are safer and a more cost-effective, less waste.
@@Havis_Princess i do too but I'm thinking about it for our future, you know daughters and granddaughters on so on. we need to change how we handle periods to better prevent TSS and also enviromental pollution etc etc its a learning curve for us but if its all that the girls that are coming up know they'll be use to them
I got mine in 5th grade 😭 I got up to ask the teacher something and everyone was laughing 😩 it took me 4 days until I could get the courage to go back to school
I got my first period at the end of 3rd grade (I was 9) absolute sucked but my mom had already prepared me for it as starting young sadly runs in my family🤦🏼♀️
I got mine on a random day in sixth grade I had to pee I'm a grocery store so I went in and I freaked out I was practically crying because I was NOT ready and I messaged my mom she bought a box of pads and I'm terrified to use tampons still but I wish I would get over that...
@@NNN911N dont be afraid to ask a trusted adult or a parent. Also, do your research, there are a ton of vidoes that explain it very well. Always set an alarm for taking your pain relief, and check which hole the blood is coming from. And NEVER BE ASHAMED OF IT!!
@@peach2210 Thanks for telling me this. I did my research and saw that it was spotting, not my first period but most of the research said that it is a sign my period is very close. Also what do you mean by hole?
Everyone at my lunch table and most of the girls in my school have there period and I’m like oh I’m sorry bc idk what it’s like yet😅😅 (I’m in 7th grade pls don’t judge)
As a woman I have had very heavy personal flows my whole life ! I have to change my blood soaked panty liner every hour! Unbelievably, I have to change it with my hands getting blood all over them! Not sure if other women have to take a huge shit while having a HAVEY FLOW? Boy, I took shit two foot long shat the other day while having my HEAVY FLOW! It smelled worse then ever! I Do my woman friends out their have the same experience?
О, я из россии и здесь эта тема очень табуировна, когда стоишь на кассе магазина с прокладками видишь, что кассир смотрит на тебя из под угла, эта так ужасно, мои первые месячные начались в 14,5, был июль я уехала в город на 10 дней, и мамы не было рядом, я понимала что это такое, но было очень страшно, пошла в магаз и встретилась с этими осуждающими взглядами, в России нет уроков полового воспитания, в лучшем случае узнаешь о менструации от мамы🥲
Не стесняйтесь осуждения недалеких людей. Возможно местами тема табуирована, но в молодежной среде, многие сейчас говорят об этом спокойно, догоняя всеобщий тренд толерантности. В аптеках, в области даже за городом, видела в продаже менструальные чаши. Поэтому медленно, но верно, и мы там будем. В России очень много людей, огромные территории поэтому кажется периодически что вокруг мрак, идешь в школу, универ, слышишь и видишь людей которые застряли в далёком прошлом. Не слушайте их, не давайте им тянуть себя на дно. Хороших умных людей у нас тоже много, просто их надо искать.
fun fact:i lied to my friend in 5th grade that i got my first period on february 4. and i felt so cool and everything,then i got my first period in 6th grade,february 4.
I was in 4th grade when i got mine i was at school and i was scared and shocked and now im in 8th grade and ive been treating my body like absolute shit and about 5 minutes ago i criex tears of joy because my period finally came 🥹
I dont buy pads or tampons anymore. Waste of money i just use paper towels from public bathrooms or napkins they give you in fast food bags. Gotta be resourceful in these days

Oh... So Texas can do good things? Suprising.
I wish Illinois would do that.
@@Hiho6172ikr. I was just kind of waiting for everything to go even further to hell
