National Trust & tampons

[oncemoreuntothebeachdearfriends]

NT have made free tampons available in the gents' toilets in a castle in the Lake District. Not unisex toilets, but actual gents.

Not just any tampons, but vegan tampons (WTF are they?).
And they're also available in the ladies.

YABU They are demonstrating what a kind, caring organisation they are, & covering their arses.

YANBU They are bonkers, tossers... add your own words.

Or women into men's toilets?

This was how I interpreted it.

Neither.
People must use the facilities which align with their biological sex.

They will lose a lot of members.
Their demography is not people who will tolerate more of this nonsense.
I'd never join them now or buy any of their merchandise.

They have taken WOKE to a whole new level.

It does not, and if it does the OP should really be asking herself why that is.

Trans men should not be in the gents toilets. They are female and therefore should be using the female or unisex toilets. Appropriate sanitary items can be found there.

men deserve dignity too and there shouldn’t be women in their single sex space.

Have you been told this by a man using them the gents?
If I were you I'd write to the CEO of the NT and ask a lot of questions.

That means trans men can have a tampon. No? At least they are using their correct pretend gender

A trans man is supposed to use the women's loos as they are a biological female.

It’s an advertising stunt, and it’s the NT, of course they’re going to push the lack of plastics etc.

😂😂

Transmen have to use the ladies.

The SC ruling was clear that single sex toilets are exactly that, single sex.

Where they will get shouted at and verbally abused - possibly physically abused - by women who don’t want to share facilities with someone who has a shaved head, a full beard and a bulge in their pants.

Trans men are much safer in the Gents. If you consider trans men to be women, and you care about women’s safety, you should support them using the Gents.

Gives no excuse for men cosplaying as women to go in the Female toilet I suppose. No need to go in there on the pretext of ‘needing to borrow a tampon’ guys, there are some in the Male toilets.
Wonder what Charlie the Sizergh Garden Cat thinks of it all?

Don't be silly, it's obviously all the single mothers on UC who are to blame!

Transmen are much safer in the Gents. If you consider transmen to be women, and you care about women’s safety, you should support them using the Gents.

You're not serious.
Women are always safer in the ladies.
It's academic anyway. The Supreme Court has ruled that people must use the facilities which align with their biological sex.

Sorry but....even if this is real....who cares!?

Why is everyone taking the OPs word for this? Even if it is true it is highly likely to be due to someone planting them there and there is no official statement by the NT about this.

My god why does this matter to you.

It's real, & why are you bothering to read & post if you don't care ?

I also go to NT places frequently. I've seen free san pro in about 25% of NT locations that I frequently visit (South).

I do feel for my son’s friend who is a trans man. I met him at 14 and thought he was a smaller lad who hadn’t yet gone through puberty. He is now mid 20s. I had no idea he was born female. He would attract way more attention and be more likely to be asked to leave the Ladies if he went in them.
I don’t know what the answer is (availability of any-gender loos?) but for some people the ruling has changed their life.

I'm sure that forcing GC women to accept transmen male-presenting women into women's toilets will cause no problems whatsoever.
