A guy mansplained how much money women spend on tampons and the takedowns were glorious
It’s an unfortunate sign of the times that you don’t have to look very far for examples of mansplaining these days. But sometimes something comes along which really is just next-level stuff.
This guy, who thought it was a good idea to share his thoughts on the cost of tampons on the Pink News Facebook page, is one of those moments.

I am so confused by all of this. 7 tampons per cycle? 9 periods a year? Juicy uterine lining? Has this man ever even met a woman?

Getting a vague sense he’s never been in close personal contact with any woman ever.

Coffee or tampons? That’s the choice? Ok, I choose coffee. He’d better hope he doesn’t sit in my seat when I get off the bus

The average number is 35ml-45ml. So literally the only thing he got right was how many days are in a week.
