But of course. It’s bigoted and discriminatory, to have a female symbol.on such products. The implication that only females use those products is bigotry against”transgendered” types.

And anything which can be perceived as bigoted against transgendered people is itself a crime against humanity.

Good. Glad to see these wretched, carpet-munching, baby-killing feminists get destroyed.

Look this should’ve happened 30+ years ago. We at the power plant used to get Kotex by the case. We changed often. We used them to soak up lubricating oil from equipment bearings anywhere there was a leak. Surely no want wants a feedpump emblem or forced draft fan emblem on a Kotex box, if you don’t know what it’s for leave it alone. They worked good too, cut down equipment cleanup time a bunch. (Well this should get the sophomores rolling. Huh?)

One thing to be tolerant of an aberrant lifestyle. It is another thing altogether for that group to impose absurd demands and restrict the choices and freedoms of those minding their own business just to throw their weight around and claim political and cultural power over others. The trans-activists are over-playing their hand big-time. I expect the current climate of tolerance for them to rapidly dissipate if they continue to push their brand of deviancy.

Degenerate, infuriating, rage inducing, anything but funny. It’s not funny at all. Not in the least bit funny.

I think I was in the third grade when I discovered tampons wouldn’t blow up like a stick of dynamite. Never had any use for them since. Some guys ain’t as sharp as my third grade self I guess.
