We’ve frequently reported on the subversive, hyper-sexualized works of Teen Vogue, such as their instruction on anal sex, including sex toys on back-to-school lists, and, most recently, offering their teen readers advice on procuring an abortion without their parents’ knowledge.
Now, in an article titled, “What Trans & Non-Binary Menstruators Should Know About Periods,” Seventeen Magazine enlists the help of a transgender menstruation activist to help its readers find “inclusive products” for menstruation.
If only this were satire.
The article, written by self-described “Period Prince” and “non-binary & trans period activist” Cass Bliss (a biological female), reads, in part:
"When I was 15 and looked down at the brown blood spot on my underwear for the very first time, I felt like part of me had died. Before I started menses, I was happily living as an androgynous tomboy who didn’t care about what the world thought of my gender. But after having been told constantly that periods are about womanhood – by friends, the media, and advertisements – I was crushed when I started bleeding. I felt like I had no choice but to live my life pretending to be someone I was not.
"Almost one decade later, I finally gathered the strength to come out to the world as trans, and because of the violence and transphobia that I have experienced since coming out, I have committed my life to creating more spaces for folks like me to be celebrated for who we are. So, when I hear the media talk about periods and reference only girls and women, or when I find out that International Menstrual Hygiene Day was awash in a flood of feminine rhetoric, I am consistently reminded that the world does not believe that I exist."

Combined PING! and DANG!
Facepalm.
I don’t recognize this planet anymore.
“does not believe that I exist’
You exist, but are insane.
This posting by FR’s says it best and when printed up makes a good bumper sticker or poster;
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3749188/posts/#40 it reads CELEBRATE PERVERSITY each word is against a rainbow background. I suggest adding VOTE PERVOCRAT when you print it up and place that below the two words.celebrate, perversity.
Are they going to provide these men wearing dresses cramp and PMS-inducing medications along with the inclusive “hygiene products?”
we really must stop all this garbage with our kids!
Years ago, SNL’s “Weekend Update” reported that the worst job in the country was Assistant Crack Whore. I think Transgender Menstruation Activist might be a close second.
Just...damn. We seem to be living in the Psych Ward of the United States now.
The upside to this nonsense is this. These emotional train wrecks will first butcher themselves, so they can't breed, and then off themselves when they discover that the expensive butchery does not "improve" their odds of getting laid.
In the mean time, we can quietly sneer at their stupidity. Why ever should we take them seriously?
Perhaps somebody can repeatedly kick him in the balls until they bleed
You exist, but are insane.
From the article:
“Whenever I get my cycle, my boobs swell out and I can’t wear my favorite binder – so I have to feel the weight of my chest for 4-5 days while I try to remind myself that I’m not a freak, there’s nothing wrong with me, and that the anxiety will pass soon.”
Transgender man = biological woman.
Trans men are actually women who hate being women but feel “empowered” by calling themselves “men who menstruate.”
See #14.
No balls. This is a woman.
The article referenced is by a “trans” female that does experience cramps. All of the symptoms of menses cramp her style...sorry...and intrude reality onto her identity as a male.
“Gender” dysphoria is a mental illness.
“....I try to remind myself that I’m not a freak, there’s nothing wrong with me, and that the anxiety will pass soon.”
Sadly, this girl is completely accurate! Except she is interpreting those feelings wrong in her mind. She is NOT a freak. Her body is hers - she is a girl. It is the anxiety that is the issue - a mental issue. And the anxiety can pass as well.
Hmm. Like being addicted to smoking. The anxiousness passes once you find that bit of a cigarette in the ashtray in the basement. It also goes away when you quit, and cigarettes don’t control your feelings anymore.
There are transgender “support groups”. I’ve heard where many of them are run by men (who want to be women), and most new transgenders are girls wanting to be boys. The male leaders shame the girls because they (the girls) get to have periods and the male leaders can’t! F-ing crazy.
