Disney4me Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago There are lots of changes going on in Disney World these days! This is a big change! The theme parks are expanding, and the hotels are getting big updates. While not every switch has been well received, this new change has been popular with Disney fans online. Here’s what you guys are saying about Disney World’s new Aunt Flow products! In case you missed it, Disney has started introducing Aunt Flow products to their bathrooms… FOR FREE! If you’ve never heard of Aunt Flow, it’s a woman-owned business whose mission is to “fight period poverty and end the stigma surrounding menstruation.” The company advocates for businesses and schools to offer high-quality pads and tampons for free in all of their bathrooms because their core belief is that if toilet paper is free, period products should be too. Aunt Flow products in EPCOT In Disney World, you could find period products for free in deluxe hotel rooms and First Aid, although those were in limited quantities. In other bathrooms throughout the resort, you would have to purchase period products in Disney World, and if you didn’t have change, you were out of luck. Now, thanks to Aunt Flow, these free products are expanding to multiple Disney World bathrooms. Online, hundreds of Disney fans had big opinions about this update! On Instagram, @fire.wine.victory wrote, “This is BRILLIANT. And it’s not like Disney can’t afford it!” One of the tampons “This isn’t a small change! It’s a huge step towards normalizing and widely accepting what naturally happens with our bodies. It’s a basic and fundamental component of life for half the population. To not have to panic and find loose change or run to first aid like a broken person is a big deal. I want my daughters to never have to feel panic and shame over their periods!” commented @arianne31. In EPCOT’s bathrooms @beccahsmith_ commented, “As someone who was ‘surprised’ in the Adventureland bathroom, with no quarter and had to diy, this is amazing!” We’ve been there too! They’re free! @shaylovessports commented, “Disneyland parks have had free tampons and pads for years. Glad to see WDW catch up.” It’s true, Disneyland has been leading the pack on this change for a while now. We’ve also seen that this has been expanded to the Disney Cruise Line as well, so it’s not just the theme parks. During our time in the parks, so far we’ve seen them in quite a few bathrooms like the ones in the American Adventure Pavilion, the Morocco Pavilion, the Odyssey Pavilion, the restrooms near Test Track, and more. We’ve also noticed them in the bathrooms at the entrance of EPCOT and Hollywood Studios, so they are slowly expanding to all of the bathrooms. The back of the package! In a rare moment online, we didn’t see any glaringly negative comments on the news in our comment section! Some fans did express concern that people might take all of the period products to “stock up” instead of just grabbing them as needed, but other fans replied, asking us to “have a little faith” in each other. So far, Disney has kept the restrooms we have seen the Aunt Flow products in well stocked, so hopefully this won’t be an issue in the future. This is a small but mighty change for tons of Disney guests, so we are extremely excited to see it. As always, be sure to keep following DFB for more Disney news, updates, fan opinions, and more.
