World’s first tampons for men are an ‘insult’ to women
The Telegraph ^ | December 2, 2023 | Sanchez Manning

Posted on 12/03/2023 3:47:41 PM PST by Robwin

The world’s first tampons for men have been criticised by feminist campaigners as an “insult” to women who suffer period discrimination.

Vuokkoset, a Finnish company released the controversial new sanitary product earlier this month to coincide with Transgender Awareness week and International Men’s day.

The product comes in a dark blue box which bears the words “For Men” on one side, but then extends this phrase around the packaging so it eventually reads “For Menstruation”.

On another side of the packet it is stated that “periods are not a gender issue”.

Vuokkoset has said in a statement online that it launched the period product to “raise the issue of genderness of hygiene products and the anxiety related to menstruation in trans men”.

Society has become a bunch of wussies
20 or even 10 years ago you would be laughed out of the room for even suggesting such a thing

I was excited to get my box of men tampons, now what?? There’s no instructions. How am I supposed to use this product? This whole thing seems counter intuitive. I feel like I’ve been scammed.

Insult to women? Good grief - are these men not smart enough to be insulted?

I doubt it. Just when you think it can’t get any worse, the left manages to out do itself.

Jesus, it’s time. PLEASE come back.

But trans men don't menstruate.
