Sanitary Napkins: Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner


Much respect to her!!!

Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner was an incredible inventor who didn’t receive nearly enough credit for her innovations while she was alive. Her work fundamentally changed the way people all over the world, especially women, go about their day-to-day lives.

Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner was the brilliant mind behind pads (also referred to as sanitary napkins). Although her invention was initially rejected due to racial discrimination, it was finally accepted 30 years later in 1956.

In addition to her groundbreaking work on sanitary napkins, Mary received five patents for her household inventions, including the bathroom tissue holder, which she co-invented with her sister.

Thank you, Mary, for looking out for the ladies. ❤️💯🌹 WE LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU!
