Taking to the comments, media personality Boity Thulo commented, “Incredible!!!!”

Another user said, “Can’t wait to see free sanitary towels for our underprivileged girls and women! Can you make a heavy flow size for a young girl, please? I can’t, and my heart can’t fathom just how our 9-13 year-olds wear the large long heavy-flow sanitary towels made for adult women—especially those who can’t afford the thin sanitary towels! @sivngesi.”

Another user added, “I don’t have a girl-child… but my boy-child can surely learn from you!!”
