Tampax getting ratioed

Time to try a Mooncup (love mine!).

So glad I won't be giving money to these gaslighters.

@GingerBeverage thanks for the information about the periodlady website.

My disappointment with Tampax and your post has finally given me the push needed to purchase some reusable pads.

The 20% off code is tpl-launch and free delivery kicks in at £20, accepting PayPal payments too.

Tampax - I've been a customer for nearly 30 years!!! What a counterproductive marketing campaign...You utter dicks... Hope the rise in male customers matches the number of women you have just alienated.

Those nappy sizes really discriminate against the adult baby market. NOT INCLUSIVE. DO BETTER.

Friends of the earth ....Not talking about --periods-women means it’s difficult to tackle these issues openly and honestly.

Its bad enough their products are bad for the environment & bad for women's bodies (tss anyone?)

The female centric thing to do would seem to be spreading the word among women on the many benefits of reusable and ecologically friendly sanpro. I learned about such things on MN from other women in the first place.

"As a side note, is anyone else having issues with twitter links? When I click them from here, it says 'not available to you'. But if I open a new window and paste the link, it works? Almost seems like twitter is blocking any traffic from MN? I know that sounds ridiculous, and its more likely to be my computer or something, but its..weird.

I'm not blocked or anything as I'm not logged into twitter anyway, plus its with all twitter links, not just certain peoples who may have me on a blocklist. Abut all topics."

I'm having the same problem today. Also, my tweet to Tampax has disappeared. In fact, some of my GC tweets have been disappearing. Just a few here and there. Not sure how to complain to Twitter.

Also, I see the woke crowd has arrived. Lots more likes than comments now.

I sincerely hope that scores of women DO boycott their products.

we need the products so they don't anticipate losing our business.

Well Always doing this pushed me to reusable sanpro. Haven't looked back, much better for the environment and the difference when you're not putting horrible chemicals next to your skin is marked.

Haven't bought anything from M&S either since they decided that deriding female people was the In Thing and wouldn't affect their income.

Best of British with that chaps.

No, this is pure wokewashing. They want to appeal to all those young women who consider themselves transallies. Possibly, they do see it as a business strategy. All those young women currently being brainwashed and/or bullied into the cult are the ones who'll be using sanitary protection for far longer than us dried-up old biddies , they can generate FAR more profits for Tampax and the like.

As for us other women, I imagine they regard us as a captive market, we need the products so they don't anticipate losing our business.

Except, of course for mooncups, ...

Monthly support for friends of the earth cancelled. There is power behind women's spending. This from Tampax is really contemptuous in my eyes. I hope there is a mass boycotting by women.

Waits for Durex to call their target market 'people who ejaculate'

Not all men ejaculate. Not all people who ejaculate are men. Let's celebrate people who ejaculate.

And International Men's Day can become International Ejaculators Day.

The worst thing about this is that I’ve found myself agreeing with Laurence Fox

I have the same problem, but just refreshing the page usually sorts it for me.

I'm not sure whether it is just links from here or from other sites, too - but it does happen often

Never see 'people who ejactulate' or such. Would love to see mens reaction to that written on durex packaging

Based on this I went to see what Durex have to say on Twitter, not much it seems, so I looked at Trojan which is a US brand.
Seems they are selling some kind of disposable wank sock for men. Tag line ‘for male pleasure’. Not penis owners or people who ejaculate mind you. twitter.com/trojancondoms/status/1313531505776492546?s=21

Ugh the arguments on that thread are making me mad, though its the same shite as usual. Many people just popping up to let us know that 'not all women menstruate, are you saying those who do not menstruate are not women?!?!?!?!' as if its some wonderful gotcha. Its really not. Same shit, different day.

Fucks sake..again. Noone at all gives a shite about women do they, really. At this stage, no way do companies not know that this is hugely offensive to us. But they keep on doing it, to please a tiny minority of shouty men? Really?

And no, its not about 'transmen' being included. As then it would be 'women and transmen'.

Never see 'people who ejactulate' or such. Would love to see mens reaction to that written on durex packaging

Are Tampax going to put their money where their mouth is and bring out a more manly range for those who have periods but aren’t women? With wording accordingly? Then ranges aimed at women could have the words women and girls quite happily on them
Something looking a bit like this:

Alice Cooper needs to have words

I was assuming that the transwoman would have had fairly radical "bottom surgery", by the way, because otherwise inserting them where women do would be difficult.

Even if TW have had radical surgery, they can never insert them where women do.

Well they aren’t absorbent enough for my when I bleed like I’ve been shot - I love the other brand that begin with ‘l’
