Following The Ladydrawers’ March investigation into the gender bias embedded in copyright law, Anne Elizabeth Moore and Laura Szumowski started to look at patents and feminine hygiene in April. This followup strip reveals the amazing feminist secrets of the sanitary napkin disposal bag, and it is sure to delight and disgust. Stay tuned to this link next month, too, when we look at the crazy cat lady who holds the secrets to patent law reform!

Truthout is funded almost entirely by readers — that’s why we can speak truth to power and cut against the mainstream narrative. But independent journalists at Truthout face mounting political repression under Trump.
We rely on your support to survive McCarthyist censorship. Please make a tax-deductible one-time or monthly donation.
