Menstruators. Cervix havers. Non men.
And you thought the future would be all disposable clothing and flying cars!

"shared experience that was being referenced was menstruation and not womanhood."

I thought menstruation, and absence of menstruation, were part of womanhood.

'Whilst the group of people in question (the 23 afab mps serving in 1973) were all cis women, the word menstruator was used instead of women because the shared experience that was being referenced was menstruation and not womanhood.'

jesus sweet fucking christ on a bike.

FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF WITH THIS CUNTING BULLSHIT.

"shared experience that was being referenced was menstruation and not womanhood."

What, pray, is "womanhood" if the things that are commonly part of it are excluded?

I think we need an answer from these prannets.

Afab my arse.

No one is assigned a sex at birth.

Besides the offensive "afab" and cis nonsense, they are also making a large and stupid assumption that all 23 women in parliament in 1973 did actually menstruate. That is offensively personal and stupid to assume. They have no idea of the individual circumstances of those women.

SkylightAndChandelier · 21/01/2019 19:13

Why on earth would they assume that 1) these people were 'cis' or 2) that they menstruated? What clues do they have to guess that these 23 people menstruated, and all the others didn't?

Was it because they were women? Women's march really should be blushing now - assuming people's genitals and sex based on their gender presentation.. How very transphobic.

Might as well refer to men and transwomen as ejaculators

Racecardriver · 21/01/2019 19:18

But most women spend a significantbpiritoons if their lives not menstrating? It’s like the period poverty nonsense all over again. All periods are different. Sometimes absent altogether.
