    I’m currently taking a shit mere inches from a box of my wife’s tampons and I’m scared, you guys. What if one finds its way into my butt?

    Are you okay with tampons in boys’ washrooms?!

    Yyyes. And it’s weird that republicans are not. They’re hygiene products, not a political statement.

          You joke, but around when covid started I swear a fox news host announced he doesn’t wash his hands cause he doesn’t believe in germs. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if “soap is evil” became the new conspiracy

          ha, found it. It was some guy named Pete Hegseth: “My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air,” Hegseth began. “I don’t think I’ve washed my hands for 10 years. I don’t really wash my hands ever. I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can’t see them, therefore they are not real,” Hegseth added.

          I’d hope he was joking but this was on fox so who knows

    So. Fun story time.

    The first time I was getting pads for my GF was pretty traumatizing. Mostly because my-then Gf had given me hyper specific instructions on where to find the pad she needed, and the pads at the spot weren’t that

    (They had changed the placement.)

    What made it traumatizing is having to call the GF while being screamed at by some karen screeching fundie Christian things at me (as if I were demon possessed,) while also trying to get any staff she could to arrest me; while following me to my car and refusing to let me leave.

    Fun fact- it’s illegal to force exorcisms on cops because you’re being arrested. Apparently.

    Anyways, Megyn here. She has the same vibes.

        Yup.

        Apparently, men aren’t allowed to even go down that aisle.

        It was strange.

        Mostly, the only coherent thing she was saying is “IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!” complete with a gesture like catholic priest use to sprinkle holy water.

    I saw a tampon once. Crying, I had to call my mom and tell her I was now gay. I had no idea the sight of feminine hygiene products could do that.

    Boys may play with them. Which is probably for the best actually. Removing stigma from basic hygiene products can only be a positive thing.

    It’s not the point of them being there but a nice side effect.

        Heck, I once had to go get my mom AND my grandma tampons, and since there was a promotion I got like 3 of the granny ones, no one cared and I only remember because I was like a teenager and thought everyone would care, but no one did!

          This just made me realize that I’ve never bought pads for my wife. I wouldn’t have any issue doing it, and I’m guessing she knows that, but she’s never asked me to.

    Like, are you snorting tampons in there, boys? You getting high? Maybe you are turning gay on them, I don’t know, but I do know I don’t like it.

    … “Forced”. Lol.

    FFS that’s not what Tim Walz did, at all. He signed (as opposed to vetoing) a bipartisan bill to provide free menstrual products to students, after a years-long campaign by students who had to pay for these at school.

    The law doesn’t say anything about boys bathrooms or genders. At most it can be argued that by not specifying that only girls bathrooms are included, it avoids singling out female-to-male and intersex students who use boys bathrooms for persecution. Which is of course controversial to Republicans.

    Are you aware that our mothers – most of them anyway – pushed each of us out of their VAGINAS??

    You’re good with that? Totally norms?


    Seriously. Are these fuckwads still telling their kids that a stork delivered them as baby or some other fairy tale bullshit?

    I really don’t have anything to say here that hasn’t been said already.

    I’m just genuinely disappointed and tired of this nonsense. The statement isn’t accurate and even if it was, that’s a complete non-issue.

    You fucking pieces of shit, will you leave women the fuck alone already??

      Don’t you realize that they wouldn’t be this close minded in the first place if they were traveling and meeting other walks of life? They’re incurious people.
