Okay, so I haven't blogged in quite some time... My apologies. I haven't done any reviews as well. Also, my apologies. I decided to head to my #SeventhGeneration dashboard and so a very interesting topic. I was honestly just going to log out because I was a little tired of looking at this screen (sleepy), but this caught my eye.
The topic that all women (even little women) tend to avoid because it may be uncomfortable to speak of. It doesn't have to be a gross subject, in fact it should be openly discussed because we all need to be knowledgeable of our bodies.
The article went into how little we know about what is actually put into pads and tampons (not only touch our skin, but we're putting these things in our body). There aren't any laws they require the ingredients on the label or back of the box. So we are completely in the dark.
"That's why Women's Voice's for the Earth & Seventh Generation are happy to report that Representative Grace Meng has introduced the Menstrual Products Right to Know Act. And on May 23, women from across the country gathered on Capitol Hill to send Congress a message: It’s time to care about feminine care. Period."
And that's where I come in. All of Generation Good members are being asked to help raise awareness of this issue. We need to ALL come together and raise our voices, because otherwise this issue will never come to light. We as women (little ladies) deserve to know what is in the products we use.
So, please take the time to read this article.
