Am I wrong or you are a western male that is speculating about issues of indian women? I think these problems are so far away from my (perhaps also yours?) understanding (gender + cultural gaps) that I could not suggest any solution. Especially after a couple of minutes thinking.
This guy spent years into finding a solution, almost lost all he had and improved lives of many (both from sanitary and economics points of view). And he didn't this because he wanted to create the next unicorn. He deserves all our esteem and he certainly has mine.
- knicholes 10y agoI'm not trying to downplay his contributions and tenacity. His work is truly impressive. I am an American male speculating. I think both his and my solutions are better than plugging oneself up with sawdust and leaves. I wouldn't expect this man to know about these cups or women in rural India to have convenient access to not only the cups but also to plastic bags, clean water, and soap. For those who do, however, my solution is lasting, secretive, and feasible.
