A male can be a boy, a man, a love/husband, a father, a grandfather, a great-grandfather, but they don't have any knowledge what's happening inside a woman's body. That's what I had learnt in my early married life.
To break the age-old taboos and to see girls and women use pads was a difficult task.
Even if I can take sanitary napkins to 10% of the poor women in India, it will be big achievement.
Why buy sanitary napkins from multinationals when we can make them at home and generate employment?
I am the son of a hand-loom weaver. I have a connection with yarn. I thought, 'Why not try to make an affordable sanitary pad for my wife?'
You can send women to the Moon or Mars later. First, provide sanitary pads to them.
