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”.

But trans men don’t menstruate.
````````````````````````````````
Sure they do. A trans man is a biological woman pretending to be a man.
Since a man only has one hole, stick it up your rear end and feel protected all day.
May as well sell some with sparklers on the end.
I was excited to get my box of men tampons
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They are not for men, they are for females pretending to be male. TRANS men.
Science deniers!
Uh ..... How? ... Where do you ? .... Errr .... Nevermind. I don’t want to know.
Great in survival kits to start fire. Royal Marines carry them for survival training.
No instructions? Cover with super glue and shove them up your behind.
Well, NOW you tell me.
Correct - a trans man is a fake man i.e. a female. Females have periods even if they are wearing a jock strap. Unless of course, they have their female bits removed. In which case they are neutered females.
It is also an insult to biology and the facts regarding the physical aspects of the female human body. A biological male cannot experience menstruation, and has no similar need for the products designed for that particular female bodily function. Men do not have a uterus, cannot suffer from PMS (no matter how stupidly they pretend to do so), and thus can not shed the lining of their non-existent uterus. They can take hormones that mimic some of the PMS pain symptoms or they can gorge on Tacos and suffer from gas, but that is not menstruation. Any physician who says a man can do so should not be trusted with regards to any medical advice and any medical license should be revoked asap.
When I read a story of young men putting a frozen tomato paste “popsicle” into their anus once a month to pretend to have a period, my first thought was that they should be institutionalized until they delusions have been cured.
I’ve read they are good for stopping bleeding when you are shot. Depends where you are shot.
I’m old enough to remember when we would have called that insanity.
Dear Vuokkoset: prepare to be Bud Lighted!
For a long time our goal has been to make the period product category inclusive to all gender identities. Periods are just as diverse as people. With a tangible product we want to break the traditional belief that gender is based on sex.
How does this tampon differ from traditional tampons in design and packaging?
While the primary function remains consistent, the design, packaging, and branding of our tampon for men are consciously developed to not reflect traditional feminized imagery, making it more inclusive and reflective of the diverse menstruating population. A fully gender-neutral tampon product by Vuokkoset is also being considered.How does this tampon differ from traditional tampons in design and packaging? –
I applaud them for making money off of woke insanity. Especially as their product isn’t hurting anyone.
I think we need to come up with portable pop-up safe space cubes for the wokesters and millenials.
A way to remember all this trans language. Whenever you hear or see the word trans, say “FAKE” . ergo trans man is fake man and transwoman is fake woman.
Apart from the mental illness aspect, this is in the same category of like children playing “pretend”. Talk about infantilizing themselves.
Who would entrust a male Doctor, Lawyer or Dentist who did this?
