ACLU calls for tampons in men's rooms in order to achieve 'menstrual equity'
Fox News ^ | December 18, 2019 | Sam Dorman

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is calling for men's restrooms to include tampons in order to prevent discrimination against "every person who menstruates."

"While free menstrual products are not uniformly provided in women’s restrooms, they are almost never available in men’s restrooms, even for pay," the group said in a statement Tuesday.

"Men’s restrooms are also less likely to have a place to dispose of these products conveniently, privately, and hygienically."

The left-leaning legal group argued that it wasn't a "full or accurate portrayal" to say that women are the only ones who "menstruate, get pregnant, or breast feed [sic]."

"Menstrual stigma and period poverty can hit trans and non-binary people particularly hard," the post read.

What could men use tampons for? Any imaginative repurposer out there?

These people are all insane. Why we listen to them on ANY issue boggles my mind.

the ACLU used to be a legitimate civil liberties organization that leaned left, but sometimes sided with conservatives.

Now it has descended into this inanity.

It’s indulging the insane Left so they can play make-believe.

A tampon is an invaluable tool for anyone’s survival kit, actually.

God help us.

For real.

Jesus needs to come back real soon to stop this insanity.

There’s no one way to be a man.

Men who get their periods are men.

Men who get pregnant and give birth are men.

Trans and non-binary men belong.#InternationalMensDay

Too bad ACLU does not encourage "men" who believe they are Superman to prove it by stepping onto an interstate highway and blocking a few speeding cars with their "Superman bodies."

Just give me a minute to grab my camera...

If such a pay dispenser is installed in a men’s room in Texas, it will most likely be torn off the wall and kicked out the door.

I wouldn’t want to hit a person with my car at highway speed. The damage to the car would be extensive. I hit a dog once and the grill was damaged.

How about urinals in women’s restrooms for “upright urinating equity?” Everything liberals propose when taken to its logical consequence is a bitch, um, rather, non sequitur.

menstrual stigma and period poverty? Are they saying this would be for men who “identified” as women and would buy them just to make it seem like they were real women? Playing pretend?
