Sally Ride was the first American woman and first lesbian in space, first flying in 1983. Before she flew, NASA weren't really sure what a woman in space might need, so suggested providing her with 100 tampons. For a six day mission.
@vagina_museum Better that way, than another. The last time I've participated in so called "main stream social media" there were some men believing that one tampon for the whole period is enough...
@agturcz@vagina_museum One way to ensure plenty of women die from toxic shock syndrome. Or have Trump complaining they are ‘bleeding from every orifice’.
