Rico's tweet stemmed from a series of posts on Sunday night asking why women are required to pay for necessities like bras, tampons, and pads. "Honestly, why does the government make women pay for tampons and pads? Did we ask to be women?" the 21-year-old musician wrote. After a number of replies from users, Rico announced that she would be putting together a drive for women, with more details on the way.

Can u believe bras are 40$ ??? Like I asked to have titties ?????
Does it make sense that someone wearing an A cup might have to pay the price of a D CUP bra ...

And knowing we have all this shit to take care of we still get paid less than the average man
