Making Reusable Menstrual Products Available to Women of Third World Countries

Hello Everyone,

I'd like to bring something to everyone's attention. This is a topic that no one seems to be interested in or mentions:

Providing reusable and safe menstrual products to women of third-world countries.

I have seen things like the “Mango Juicer” which is a sexual stimulation item made especially for women in countries such as in Africa who have experienced genital mutilation so that they can pleasure themselves using their G-spot and it’s smuggled into countries as a “kitchen utensil”, but I haven’t been able to find anything on supplying reusable menstrual products. If anyone finds anything please let me know!

If we can’t find any organizations that supply reusable pads, cups, sea sponges, etc. to those women, that’s a project we could, and should, start. We could try contacting the makers of these products, such as the GladRag & DivaCup makers, about donating, or if need be raising money, buying, and shipping them ourselves, or even making them ourselves (well, pads anyway)! Also supplying things like the Cycle Beads (so that they don't have to use birth control pills) would be good too.


If anyone’s interested, let me know… I’m working on starting a website about it…

This is something that I think is very important, something that needs to be addressed, looked into, advocated, and taken care of. We need to support our fellow sisters, mothers, and friends!

Please contact me and/or reply to this post if you are interested in doing something, anything.

Goddess Bless,
