Today the topics for procrastination are,

women's cycle - menstruation; Fairytales and sheer nuttiness and to save embarrassment for those who are too genteel to reflect on such matters I have deliberately named the blog Menstruation so you can avoid it.  Please no complaints...  I could have hiden

Women's cycle.

I recently heard that the 'pink pound tax' so named for obvious reasons and not to be confused with the 'pink pound' in M/c Gay village, has been subverted to pay for the loss of income suffered by merchants who are having to reduce money they charge for sanitary towels etc.  I mean come on.  The reason for the reduction is that this is a necessity and many young females are missing out on education because they cannot afford to buy the special products to enable them to go out in public.  Merchants should not be claiming loss of income and therefore accessing the money.  I am of course attempting to find out more information and if this is true...  If it is true - there is something to be said for a Government who would give with one hand and take back with another.  Merchants/manufacturers should foot that cost.  End of.
