Progress
Er, just a minute, I hesitate to mention this subject but in the fervent hope that decorum might prevail: there is now a department in HMGOV dedicated to menstruation.
A good and worthwhile service of course, but I’ve always been puzzled about the first three letters of that word. In the sure and certain hope (?) of tasteful response, has anyone seen the latest development of our elders' and betters' attempts at ‘woke’? There is now a department in HMGOV dedicated to menstruation. Or rather the prevention of discrimination to a perceived minority. (Vis: Sir Lindsay Hoyle is about to sign the Menopause Workplace Pledge)

No I havent seen anything regarding this, but do not think anything wrong with having a section functioning within a health and social services department. It should not have a dedicated minister though (as in minister of menstruation).

I agree but a special advisor on mesuration, with a proportionate rewards package, would be perfectly reasonable.

It is a subject that many members of this club will only have a very sketchy knowledge or experience of..
I have over the years supported a number of period poverty campaigns and have been heartened by the number of employers who are now providing free sanitary products for women. Sadly the cost of these products, especially in the current cost of living crisis means that a growing number of women of all ages are struggling to pay for them. My local authority area has now started providing pads etc in schools. I hope that this initiative also looks at increased support for women going through menopause. Thankfully my wife has been well supported by her employer but sadly many adopt the attitude of ' just get on with it'. I really hope that this is not just another PR exercise by the government |
