Tampax getting ratioed

Transmen aren’t causing the issue at all.

Why is there so much negative comments about men on this thread. Men are not causing this issue 'TRANSmen' are causing the issue. As I've pointed out previously on this thread there are loads of men challenging this nonsense online and fighting against this woke ideology. Or are people on here so desperate to score points against men they'll alienate 50% of the population who could help turn this around. And let's not forget then many of those pushing for these changes are women. We should focus on getting 'sex' back on the agenda.

Ill never understand how people who say "transwomen are women" want to erase the word "women". If you want to be part of a group and show solidarity with them, why would you then erase their name? I can only assume because it's the solidarity isn't actually there.

Women grow beards and facial hair too. No one has argued that any of the male products aimed at men (and often mention men on the packaging) should have ‘man’ taken off them.
THIS is why it’s all bullshit.

you sound a bit confused and that you think it's biological men that they're referring to? They're referring to trans men - ie, biologically female so could still quite easily have periods!

No one's really confused, just poking fun at the absurdity when you imply men/males can have periods.

We know transmen have periods, because they're transmen. So there's no reason to avoid saying women and transmen, unless of course, they're really doing this to please the ejaculators that don't want us to have the word woman. Of course they're also now dressing it up as concern for women who have gone through the menopause or don't have a uterus who'll be traumatised to see the word woman, when in truth they didn't give a flying fuck about these women until it suited them.

Transwomen may need Viagra, condoms, prostate exams, but I don't see a push to dehumanise men to include them, do you? Wonder why that could be...

I can’t even with this shit anymore. Males really have nothing in their tiny brains/lives if they have time to come up with this bullshit.

I’ll be over there ——-> doing meaningful stuff, and you know having a life while they gaze into their navels above their brave little penises and invent some new way to try & interrupt mummy women.

Summed up,here in this tweet

I'm proud to say my dd has only ever used reusable pads. Some homemade by me. Others bought from Uk makers like English Garden Lovelies.
It is entirely her choice.

Then I apologise for the curt response. If there was ever a time to put the battle of the sexes on hold I would think it is now.

Profers handshake! Can I just say how refreshing it is to have an online discussion where a misunderstanding is cleared up quickly and amicably, and people agree they'd be better off working together?

Fact: some women don't have periods.
Yes. We know. Some women have hysterectomies.
All women go through menopause eventually, early or otherwise.
A small number of women never have any kind of normal cycle.
Some women have no choice but to take drugs to suppress their periods as they're intolerable.

But we don't make a song & dance about "not having periods". That would be the preserve of marketing teams trying to sell a product, & people who have no idea what it's like to be a woman.

Personally I'd love to have no periods. They're shit. They serve a purpose. Like paying a very expensive mortgage.

This reminds me of a drunk night out when my drunk male boss bashed his head and it started to bleed. I, also a little drunk, had a Tampax in my pocket and dabbed his bleeding head with it. Next day he asked me what happened and why he had a bloody Tampax in his pocket.

So I guess they're exploring new markets here for all people who bleed, have one in your pocket for drunk bleeders and you won't go wrong. There's even a handy bit of string so you can tie it on to the bleeder with if they are too drunk to hold it.

I might go on Dragons Den with this bloody hot idea.

Much progress, don't you think?

Women are responsible for 80 percent or so of household shopping/budgeting aren't we?

Its astounding how the very young woke vote when their stuff is often bought by their parents ( namely the mother) and the male vote is always so much more important.

Ridiculous it's females as in the female sex that have periods & that includes TM.
TM may use the term as man as in gender as gender is a social construct.
I have no problem referring to TM as men or TW as women (as in which gender they want to use) & have no problem with a realistic looking or nice pleasant gender dysphoric TW using a womens toilet.
I do have a problem with a man who has autogynephilia.

However biologically TM's are of the female sex & TW's of the male sex.
Sex is a biological fact.
You can't change your chromosomes unless you happen to be one of those fish/animals that can change sex & produce both eggs & sperm.
As far as I know no human has Sequential hermaphroditism.

I don’t know why they think this will make them more money. This market they are chasing is tiny in compared to y’know ‘women’.
Fuck them and their products. Although I’m waiting for condom adverts that say ‘women spunk too’.

It's a tongue-in-cheek suggestion Jdoe. Because the whole point is no one, at any point, is doing this to men. Men are not being told to re-brand themselves as ejaculators, prostate-havers, etc. in the name of inclusivity.

This shit only every affects women.

But the support of sane men on twitter is appreciated (not least because they can say things that would lead to an instant ban were a woman to say them).

Also recommend earthwise girls.

Good range. Reasonably priced. Starter packs available and have always delivered really promptly.

Whenever I see people saying "if only women menstruate then how comes those who have stopped menstruating are still women?" as if that's the killer argument of the century, I hear it in the exact same voice that evolution deniers say "if we all evolved from monkeys then how come there are still monkeys?" It's the same level of stupid to me, because it's a question that anyone who thinks for 5 minutes can answer. But like the evolution denier they don't think about it, because they don't like the answer.

Another vote here for washable pads BTW. They're brilliant, I used to get rashes from disposibles but I haven't had a single one from my cloth pads. I did used to donate tampax pearl to the food bank each week though since some women on MN said it was the best brand for their endometriosis, so will need to find a replacement for that.

Is the way around this to adopt an 'offence is the best defence' stance? So any product that is for men e.g condoms, viagra etc., the producers should be petitioned to describe them as being 'for people who ejaculate', 'for people with erectile dysfunction'?
