TikTok Debate Ignites: Sanitary Towels and Women's Rights in Kenya

Homa Bay County, Kenya, is the setting for a lively TikTok debate about the provision of sanitary towels in schools. The discussion, led by a self-described radical feminist, sparks passionate responses from viewers. The speaker argues that sanitary towels are a basic need, similar to condoms, and should be government-provided. Viewers express mixed opinions, some agreeing with the speaker's feminist perspective, while others question the approach and the feasibility of such a program. The debate highlights the ongoing struggle for gender equality and access to essential resources in Kenya. One viewer commented, "It's a feminist issue, and the government should provide them," while another countered, "That's not practical; we need sustainable solutions."
