Vogue & sanitary napkins

This would probably be the most disgusting thing I could bring up in my blog. BUT because my attention was drawn to it, I find myself obliged to.
As females, I think a lot is expected of us. We need to be looking good at all times. Whilst juggling a job & housework, we also tend to the cooking and teaching lifeskills to our kids. For some women, they have domestic helpers to do the chores of cleaning, cooking etc.
Imagine a woman, so well-groomed on the outside, yet having no decency about hygiene or shame when it comes to the disposal of her sanitary napkin.

I'm sure no everyone thinks about what happens when the soiled napkin is placed in the bin. Well, at the office, you have cleaners to clear the bin. At home, you have either yourself or your maid. Some may think, 'ah the office cleaner would not know whose soiled napkin it is' - THAT is a woman who really is only looking good on the outside. *tsk *tsk - not brought up properly.

Sanitary napkins come in packing that allows the user to actually roll the soiled napkin up, place it neatly into the wrapper and then dispose. At least, when the bin is being emptied, it's not such a gory sight.

I brought this up because someone just chucks her soiled napkins in the wastebasket of her bathroom, in plain sight for the rest of the house or visitors to look at. Oh, she had expected her domestic maid to clean it up. Sure, the maid cleared the bin, but it was the mother-in-law who told her off.

Next time you see your woman friend, all made-up and dressed in her expensive shoes and clothes, with equally expensive bags and shoes, think about whether she has some measure of privacy, hygiene, class.

Yes, it boils down to this: If you're classy enough to strut the streets in vogue, then please be classy enough to know that this is not one of those little things that could have been missed whilst turning the pages of Tatler or Vogue - it's whether you're actually well-bred or not.

So, don't just mind your p's and q's - that we have books for!
