Do We Need a “Period Dignity Officer?”

Of all the crazy things I’ve heard today, this one takes the biscuit. Natalie and Clayton Morris discuss the hiring of a man to be Scotland’s “Period Dignity Officer.” My view is WTH do we even need one. Women have been having periods since forever. We need a Period Officer to explain them to us? This is nuts!

Women have gone for thousands of years without a Period Officer. It’s ridiculous. @Mellowgirl

@Carissimi Most drop out of school and don't finish because of taboos around periods. You say we've gone thousands of years without a period officer but people gone thousands of years without education so... by your logic.
