What the heck! Trans women get periods apparently

Oh FFS

"Many trans women have periods. Some trans women don’t have uteruses, so they won’t bleed as part of a monthly menstrual cycle. But the hormonal experience of menstruation can still be very real.
Some trans women undergo gender-affirming treatment in the form of feminising hormones. These symptoms may occur at the same time each month, just like premenstrual syndrome (PMS). For many trans women, this is their period."

Seriously? Some transwomen i.e. males don't have uteruses? No transwomen have a uterus and they don't have a menstrual cycle ( you need a female reproductive system for that) they are merely experiencing the rather unpleasant side effects of taking cross sex hormones.

They are run by an Australian team according to Companies house and there's a correspondence address.

The best thing any of us can do to help end this nonsense is stop buying from companies like Modibodi. That's the only way they'll pack it in.

I don't understand, where is the blood coming from? Their arsehole? 🤔
If a man is bleeding down there and doesn't have a uterus, then he needs to click his heels and toddle off to the GP pronto!

It’s just outrageous shite, isnt it? I don’t know whether young girls around eleven are still clueless about periods like I was in the mid-60s, but to read all this kind of thing you'd not know East from West.
If a girl wasn't getting any helpful info from anyone close, she could be absorbing all kinds of nonsense.
Well, boys too of course. God knows what youngsters make of it all. Just saying ‘Live and let live’ and to hell with biological differentiation is not useful at that age.

Of course they do. Biological men are known for having periods. 🙄🤷‍♀️

Said no one ever.

Trans women’s periods are just as real and valid as anyone else’s,

What a load of bollocks.

This utter bollocks is minimising what so many women go through every month with periods. Sleeping on a towel because of flooding, anaemia, changing sanpro every hour, fibroids, pain. GP not doing anything because "it's just one of those things". Yet we are supposed to simultaneously "affirm" someone who claims they are going through just the same thing as women every month even though they don't have the equipment?

Seriously. Unhinged.

I saw a post about this on social media the other day.
Male to female trans person saying they were having periods, and going into graphic detail about it.

I genuinely have no problem with transexuals of any kind. So long as they're happy and not harming anyone else, be what you want to be.
But seriously, that is deluded at best, and at worst a mental health issue.

I wear period pants at night, as well as a tampon, so that my mattress and protector don't get ruined. But some who don't have overly heavy bleeding just wear them in place of sanitary pads, as they're more environmentally friendly.

I agree, in deadly earnest.

From their website-

Many trans women have periods. Some trans women don’t have uteruses, so they won’t bleed as part of a monthly menstrual cycle. But the hormonal experience of menstruation can still be very real.
Some trans women undergo gender-affirming treatment in the form of feminising hormones. These symptoms may occur at the same time each month, just like premenstrual syndrome (PMS). For many trans women, this is their period.

They don't even understand the audience they are trying to attract. Trans women take hormones every day, it is not in a monthly cycle with different fluctuations of hormones like it is for biological (real) women. They are literally just making shit up now.

Who owns this stupid and ridiculous company? Anybody know?

This ridiculous rhetoric from the left just pushes more people towards conservatism.

The concerning thing is while people are arguing whether or not a genetic male can release menstrual blood from their uterus every month (they can’t) then we aren’t discussing the real issues.

Absolutely.

Hey women! Be kind and let your male friend / partner fetishise your body's functions.

Is this company saying that as a transman, you might believe you are a man but you can’t change your female biology?

Well I honestly couldn’t care less who buys and wears the pants, whatever floats your boat, live and let live etc.

I do think it is ridiculous that they say ‘some’ trans women don’t have a uterus though. I’m quite tempted to e-mail them to ask for clarification about the identity of transwomen with a uterus, because it’s not an identity I have come across before…

Thank you for that. 💕
I honestly thought the poster was being serious and I'd stepped into the Twilight zone. 😫

Menophilia is an unfortunate fetish with some men, including some transwomen and non-binary members of the male sex.

The human race has run it's course. It's time for a giant asteroid/deadly zombie plague/nuclear Armageddon/insert your choice of world ending catastrophe.

Another ‘gem’ from that website, ‘Bottom line is, people of all genders menstruate. Trans women’s periods are just as real and valid as anyone else’s, so…’. blah blah…

(Why am I wasting time on this when I’ve got 14 horrible houseworky jobs to do??)

@Lalgarh Some use them as backup, some use them on their own. As for why: much better for the environment and our budgets.

Has anyone told them there is a song Only women bleed. Will they be blaming their periods for their bad moods.? PMS etc. What next I ask will they be complaining about?

The more I think about it, the more incensed I am by the section about how to support your male friends or family members who pretend to be women.

Be a good ally. Be kind. Don’t ask intrusive questions (like ‘how come you think you’re having a period when we both know you’ve got a cock and balls?’)

WHY on a website which is entirely centred around women and women’s bodies, is there a whole section instructing us to Be Kind to men? And not just any men but men who intrude in and attempt to colonise our spaces, our experiences, our lives?

We aren’t allowed anything just for ourselves- even the things we don’t want but are stuck with, like periods. I’m fuming at the gaslighting.
