Femfresh are now marketing to “people with vaginas”

Prawnofthepatriarchy

proper care of one's neo vagina is just with good old water every so often. to be honest they are fairly self caring after a while. would never recommend femfresh to anyone.

My clever vagina cleans itself.

I’ll leave this to the surgically created neovaginas.

Femfresh might actually be useful for neovaginas, because researchers have commented that they typically have a foul smell. However I guess the irritation factor from the fragrance would be just as bad regardless. So looks like it's a product no one should be using.

I read this as including trans men who still have a vagina but don’t see themselves as women rather than trans women.

I'm sure that's what they intend. But it's probably a product more suited to transwomen than to women or transmen, as vaginas don't need it.

We used to rip the piss out of it at school. Called it fannyfresh.

Femmefresh.

There’s your rebrand, Church & Dwight. You’re welcome.

I read this as including trans men who still have a vagina but don’t see themselves as women rather than trans women.
Does that make sense? So people with natural vaginas rather than trans women.

This makes more sense to me than jumping to the idea that women are being erased etc

But maybe another brand will see a product aimed at “people with vaginas” hmm and think “oh this seems acceptable and woke and no one has kicked off, we should do it too” and there we fall into the slide of bye bye to the generally accepted useage of the word “woman”.

Agreed, it's not the product, it's the stealth assault that breaks the language.

'Malodorous vaginal discharge'

'Penile skin flap'

In desperate need of femfresh!

Angry 👍😂🤣😂

Happy to let neo vaginas have this one. Femfresh is misogynist bullshit.

Yep, ideal for cleaning out all the skin, intestine and bacterial vaginosis-type microbes.

"Refurbished"

You know, there are some things you really shouldn't buy second hand.

(Or in the first place.)

Who uses this kind of rubbish woman hating product?

Terrible products.

I recall being in Italy, in a very small supermarket, where the vaginal fresheners took up as much space on the shelves as tampons and sanitary towels. I felt very sorry for Italian women - there must be some serious misogyny going on over there for the products to be so popular.

I worry that with the increased pornification of society, these products will become more popular. Teens are told that women aren't supposed to have any of the "self cleaning" fluids that are perfectly normal. There was an awful thing doing the rounds on Instagram where girls were taking photos of their knickers to prove they didn't have entirely normal discharge.

@Blagora - you beat me to it. People with neovaginas can have this one. Misogynistic product to go with their misogynistic appropriation of the female form. Which.. erm.. smells

Yet more pandering to the trans lobby.

I can't imagine that many transmen will buy a product called Femfresh anyway. Maybe the company should label some of it Mascfresh - for men with vaginas.

Or they could just market to women and ignore the gender nonsense.

Actually, the ideal wording would be 'for people with neo-vaginas'. After all, vulvas and vaginas don't need these products, whereas artificially created ones lack the natural self-cleansing, pH-balancing attributes of the organs they attempt to imitate.

I spent a time in my early twenties thinking fem fresh(after a mild bout of thrush) was a better option as it was gentle and wouldn't affect my ph balance,

however, after one day I forgot to purchase some and used my regular shower gel to have a shower, with an anxiety of "great now I'm going to get thrush!"
(I never used soaps of any kind internally, mum always told me (when I started puberty and needed to know how to take care of there in a suitable fashion to my changing body) not to as I quote "the vagina is a clever part of your body it can take care of itself, just wash the outside" I never actually knew what she meant but thought as she was "old" ..(she was 30 haha) she must know best )

and wow low and behold my regular shower gel actually gave me no problems fuck you femfresh what waste of money! had myself paranoid for years I would smell if I didn't use femfresh....

I seriously think this wording will negatively affect their sales.

Don't reconstructed vaginas often smell? Ones that are made from colon. So maybe it's a good new marketing strategy for them

How about "people who can get vaginal thrush (from using our awful misogynistic products)"

2. Please don't put products with perfumes in them up your fanjo

basically don't put chemicals up your fanjo

leave it alone

it's fine

sorry neo vaginas can not have this one cos Germaine greet says that we don't have big smelly vaginas so there for have no need for such a product. lol

also totally right that product is total bullshit and. shaming of. woman's bodies

And by the way, I’m totally not saying the loss of the word “woman” is due to us not fighting it.
We can fight it until we are blue in the face but is is precisely because we are women that we aren’t listened too.
