AIBU that this is the most ridiculous thing for a company to claim.

"Can a transgender woman have a period? Absolutely. Many trans and gender-diverse people menstruate. Whether you’re a woman, a man, non-binary or agender, your body may menstruate too."

It's the one thing that as a woman if I had the power to give it to a man I absolutely would. If you want to spend a week every month cramping, bleeding, headachey and nauseous and dealing with the absolute joy that is period shits by God here you go, take it from me.

Alas with all the will in the world, it's not to be.

I mean, they’re obviously wrong, but they’re in the business of selling period pants and I suppose this expands their market of potential customers.

Who are the 14 percent so far who think YABU? I hope they just read it differently.

May menstruate 🙄
Caveat emptor

"Can a transgender woman have a period?
It doesn't say transwoman. It says transgender woman i.e. transman.

InterestedDad37 · 21/11/2025 12:48

Maybe it's a spelling mistake, for 'manstruate' (which involves a high degree of literal bollocks)

No it doesn’t it clearly states that it’s the hormones that can cause periods.

How?
How to transwomen have periods?
Where does the blood come from?🙄

EmeraldRoulette · 21/11/2025 12:49

I can't work out if this is designed to escalate to the next level of gaslighting

Or if they themselves don't understand the language they're using.

'HOW SOME TRANS WOMEN GET THEIR PERIOD'

That’s the title and it confirms it in the text

FFS. However, as I was just poised to buy some new period pants for DD, this is very useful as I will definitely buy from a different brand. Thanks, Modibodi, for clarifying my decision not to buy from you! 👍

[Honestly, do they not know their market? How many “gender diverse” customers do they have compared to mums buying pants for themselves and their daughters? Go woke go broke as they say.]

That would be violent misgendering. You can’t say trans man is any sort of woman.

Ah, OK. I didn't click on the link (I don't give things like that clicks).

If you click the link it defines trans women as those assigned male at birth. And then goes on to say that trans women can have periods even though “some” don’t have a uterus.

(By some I assume they mean all)

Justlostmybagel · 21/11/2025 12:52

Clearly hoping to make some money off trans women for their non-existent periods. They'll buy it and wear it for their gender-affirming larping.

BurnTheWholeThingDown · 21/11/2025 12:53

It also says SOME transwomen don’t have uteruses.

hahahahahhahaha what even are words anyway

The latter most definitely. Not the sharpest tools in the box, these men / women.

Sure. Just some

TheKeatingFive · 21/11/2025 12:53

This idiocy has gone way too far now. Biological illiteracy is not big or clever.

FeralWoman · 21/11/2025 12:53

I’ll never buy ModiBodi products based on that bullshit they’ve written.

Gaslighting anyone?

briq · 21/11/2025 12:53

Pathetic of them. Pandering to men who like to imagine they can menstruate, of all the things to be envious of! Some will happily pay for special underwear as props to enhance the imaginary experience, and the company playing along with it is just the cherry on top. 🙄I'd be embarrassed.

TigTails · 21/11/2025 12:54

How do they think the ones that do get them, I wonder?
