    We are confused as they said to hand them out to LGBTQ+ groups. What other purpose would there be apart from such groups using them? Also the “nobody needs to use them” comment didn’t make sense to us either.

    So yes please, an explanation would be useful.

        Ah, gotcha.

        Well, we have some experience with that. However, depending on the material they are made from they can still be porous, therefore letting certain things in or out of them, which is why washing may not be enough.
