Syracuse University Gives Free Tampons To Men, Says Products Are Not “Feminine”
milo.yiannopoulos.net ^ | NOVEMBER 1, 2016 | Staff

Syracuse University is now providing free tampons in men’s bathrooms because… progress or whatever.

In a move that defies biology, the campus is setting up a $1,000 budget to provide 10 Tampax Tampons and 10 Maxithins pads in all women’s, men’s, and gender neutral bathrooms.

According to Keelan Erhard, a co-chair for the Syracuse Student Association:

Both trans(gender) men and cis(gender) women menstruate. We should not try to gender menstrual products so that we are inclusive of everyone who uses them.

So apparently men who think they’re women also think they’re capable of biological functions they don’t possess…

However, in the fight for equality, Erhard seems to have fallen short: the $1,000 budget for free menstrual products would only include five tampons/pads in the men’s bathrooms, as opposed to double that amount in the women’s bathrooms.

I suppose Erhard realized that people who imagine themselves having periods won’t be needing as many pads…

Unsurprisingly, this is not the only American university in recent months to implement a free menstrual product policy. Cornell University passed a similar initiative, which also included men’s bathrooms.

According to Erhard, phrases like “feminine” or “feminine hygiene” are not inclusive to transgenders, despite the fact that menstrual products are, by definition, designed for use by females.

Nice addition to your range box too. Just in case.

[Both trans(gender) men and cis(gender) women menstruate.]

Cis gender: made-up terminology that is becoming legitimized by the judicial system to legalize perversion.

“”when I was a kid, I liked playing “let’s pretend””

Same here - and Saturday mornings there was a show on the radio named “Let’s Pretend.” My sister and I were doing that before the radio program!

Our favorite “pretend” was going to the woods and building RANCHES with rocks, branches marking out the rooms of the ranch house. When the work around the farm was done, it was “let’s go to the ranch.” Had to get out of Mother’s sight before she found something we’d missed or thought of something else she wanted done.

Yep. The dispensers will be ripped off the wall and stomped to pieces in short order.

At least that’s what would have happened a few decades ago. There are SO many pussified “men” these days that they will probably accept it.

I watched the vid Drudge linked to yesterday about getting rid of “toxic” masculinity. The “men” they interviewed were truly frightening.

Well, if you get shot, merely insert the tampon into the wound: learned THAT trick from a spec-ops troop. . .

This is completely in line with the quality of education that Syracuse University has always produced.

LOL, I had to laugh at that....after the work is done, let’s go pretend to go to a place where we...get to do more work!

Wow, I don’t think today’s kids would cotton too much to that!

Universities are headed the way of the dinosaur. AI robot tutors will teach you math and science better than any classroom setting.

They are not “free.” They are “overhead,” just as toilet paper and towels are “overhead,” absorbing a few minims of each student’s tuition.

Regarding why they’re put out for general use, maybe it’s because the young women don’t carry purses, so they don’t have their own supplies with them (as every sensible woman does at all times) nor coins to use a coin-operated dispenser.

“”Dumb folks””

Megyn Kelly had a “professor” on last night who fit the bill. He was looking away from the camera and hemming and hawing worse than obozo. All I could think of was how the heck does he teach or better still how the heck do students stand listening to him? I don’t know what he teaches or even remember what he was on the show for...

The craziness knows no bounds. At times it feels like we are living in an insane asylum instead of a rational country.

Tampons can be used to clean shotgun barrels. And the little plastic thing can be used as a makeshift bobber.

“”I wonder why both sets don’t simply carry appropriate sanitary supplies with them in a purse,””

Then they’d have to buy their own and how fair would that be?

I wonder how they would make ads like these gender neutral nowadays?:

Is this so bad? Your date’s period unexpectedly starts, and you’re prepared. Just as a woman might consider carrying a condom... just in case.

A little strange, but so what?

***************

The “kids” in our community never lift a finger to do anything. They don’t even pick up the newspapers, mail or trash. They’re special snowflakes, especially the ones who are over 30 years old.
