Fashion YouTuber discussing her discomfort with Trans women promoting tampons

CharlotteSometimes1 · 2023-01-27T17:30:14+00:00

I haven’t seen a thread highlighting this, but it was posted on YT a week ago so maybe I’ve missed it. Frederique Bros is a fashion YouTuber with 223 thousand subscribers and she posted a video talking about trans women and NB people promoting tampons. She’s making no bones about thinking it’s wrong and the comments are largely in agreement. https://youtu.be/enMF0Xp2r-M This isn’t a political pundit, or activist but a woman speaking out in the mainstream. I never thought I’d see the day, so thought you might like to see too.

That was the gist of it, yes. Shocking, isn't it?
Though at this stage, there can't be much left that we could be shocked at, surely?!

Fucking disgusting.

Just thought I’d pop back to say that she’s made another video on the topic, this time about language/ birthing people etc.

I promise I’m not her btw, am not French or as stylish 😁. I am pleased that this is becoming talked about in the mainstream.

Are they taking used ones and sticking them in their arseholes?

And of course Dylan wasn't asked for tampons. Pure male fantasy. And it's amazing how many of them have it.

Yeah can you imagine, in a public toilet, pulling down your pants and then shouting out ""Hey ladies anyone got a tampon!"

This is right in the land of never ever fucking happened.

I wouldn't even shout out if my mate was there.

We're women we're used to it, we do what women do when we're caught out, then carry on.

That shite gives me the rage!

100% a fantasy.
Menstruation fetish is a real thing, though of course we’re utterly evil for suggesting such a thing. If anyone hasn’t heard of JY on Twitter and is up for being truly disgusted, look him up. Endless talk about periods and tampons. And very young girls.

MorvenOfMalvern · 30/01/2023 08:43

The only time I've ever been asked is by my very best friend at my house when she was staying.

I've been caught out a few times myself and would never ask randoms - over my dead body. I have been very grateful for one of those baskets of free supplies before though. I meant to write to the place and say so too - might still.

OneMorePlant · 30/01/2023 04:10

You know shit is getting out of control when even fashion youtubers are going like "no man, just no"

According to one of our number and spoken about in one of their youtube vids, they are used in the other orifice!
As a result of this, the terf in question, recommends carrying tabasco, or chilli sauce in your handbag and adding a liberal dash to the bin in the ladies loos.
Obviously, i am not asking, or encouraging anyone to do that, i'm just saying what was said in the video.

allthelittlelights · 30/01/2023 00:14

Never been asked for one. Suspect that this person thinks it's what All Women do.

It’s good, but she only partly gets it. I don’t think she understands quite how much Dylan is taking the piss, and that he’s a fetishist. Women don’t get giddily excited waving tampons at the camera like that. He’s laughing in our faces, while a legion of young women fawn over him.
She talks about having no problem with the people who transition to be a “full woman”, which isn’t possible.

I agree.

And as for periods being being gross and disgusting and him wanting to help us with our self hatred, it's all projection. The lot.

For many women periods are a pain, they're not gross and disgusting. You might as well say having a pee is gross and disgusting. He sounds like a sniggering schoolboy.

And it's not just tampons, I'm afraid. I've read some really quite nasty accounts of men taking used pads and wearing them to get turned on. The obvious transgression is all part of it.

Chersfrozenface · 27/01/2023 17:46

And you'll notice it isn't ever about pads, is it?

Always tampons.

I wonder why.

This!

ArabellaScott · 29/01/2023 23:19

She's wonderful.

And French women are terrifying. I would not piss off French women.

Yep same, I'm 59 and only been asked for a pad twice in my life, both times very close friends. Not a stranger in a public loo. Maybe its and American thing, thats why that Dylan creature was apparently asked by a real woman in a toilet. But I think he is lying, and its one of his made up little spank bank stories he tells himself.

I lived in the States for years and its not an American thing.

If I thought less of women I would think that maybe they were trolling when they asked DM/other transwomen for tampons but I think its all just lies and never happened.

I think its all just inferred nonsense like when they claim to have period symptoms so bad that they're writhing about.

blinksartvideo · 29/01/2023 22:48

I don’t quote know where to start…! Ffs

MenopausalMe · 29/01/2023 22:39

Same I’ve never been asked for a tampon

AnybodyAnywhere · 29/01/2023 22:33

Never in all my 68 years has anyone asked for a tampon in the Ladies.

miri1985 · 29/01/2023 22:12

Same, never been asked for a tampon in a public toilet in all my years.

Just as if I was caught out in a public toilet I'd just use a toilet paper sanitary pad until I could get supplies. Not very comfortable but much less awkward.

BlueBooh · 29/01/2023 21:36

It reminds me of a thread a couple of years ago I think, where a poster asked if anyone had ever been asked for a tampon in a public toilet.

Not one woman had, well maybe a couple of dodgy posters said they had, but I think they also commented on the woman's lipstick or something. Anyway it was definitely something that never happened.

As women we know exactly what we do when we're caught out unexpectedly and it ain't asking a randomer for one! Which I'm not sharing here, because we know right? As women!

It's probably as common as pillow fights in our negligees!

lechiffre55 · 29/01/2023 21:15

Reminds me of the Candian tampon fetishist who spends an enormous amount of time fantasizing about helping young girls insert tampons.

Chersfrozenface · 29/01/2023 21:07

Whatsnewpussyhat · 29/01/2023 20:19

It's only ever tampons, not pads etc, because many men think that anything being inserted into a vagina must immediately turn women on.

It's a sex thing, like always with the fetishists.

I don't know that it's about women beng turned on. I doubt whether they consider women's feelings at all.

It's a matter of the men getting turned on by the idea of anything being inserted into a vagina.

I'm finding it difficult to decide which man is the more nauseating: the one with the jolly hockey sticks smile; or the one with the faux
empathy for the stigmatised.
