MEN NORMALIZE SUPPORTING WOMEN BY PROVIDING SANITARY PADS TO END PERIOD POVERTY
===========================
In africa, men are told different things about periods (Menstruation). In some traditions it's still a taboo to some sort if a man is concerned or even just talk about Periods and this has contributed to Period Poverty in our country because men are afraid to even to talk about or buy a sanitary pad(s) for their women, sisters, female friends , children (fathers live the obligation to mothers) etc.
In the contrast, Men of today we are modernised, not because we don't respect our traditions or culture but because we're privileged to understand the importance of Menstruation to our women Physiologically ( biologically).
Therefore, it is high time MEN start supporting women by either caring ( when women are having periods {Menstruation}), Pledging or providing sanitary pads .
Many women, young and old are suffering both physically, emotionally and mentally due to lack or capacity to provide sanitary pads. The major Challenge for many women (young and old) is finances, and Covid19 has made worse.
To summarize I urge all MEN, Influential people, cooperates, companies etc to come on board and assist in any way they can so that we can end Period Poverty in Zambia because this issue affect women's Mental Health hence we lack development.
I challenge every MAN to Buy a Sanitary pad(s) and Give it to any woman , be it sister, friend or partner but much more to our girls in the rural areas and post it on social media to sensitize others.
Please kindly share!
