Hygiene products are taxed for both men and women. So most are not exempt from tax for males products. If not then whats all this tax i've been paying for this whole time. And whats stopping women from buying male products? Speak with your wallet. Tampons was classified as a hygiene product, but now they are trying to reclassify it as a necessity.Most of which can likely be bought over the counter. So more like your grocery store "health" stuff but yeah.
