Emerson College will provide menstrual products in all its bathrooms – including men's and gender-neutral restrooms – in response to lobbying from a campus group that, in its own words, fights "for inclusivity, menstrual equality, and the de-stigmatization of menstruation and periods."
A Change.org petition started by the group Emerson Flows in April 2022 called for the change to take place before presenting the approximately 400 signatures the push had amassed to Vice President of Student Life Jim Hoppe.
"We are Emerson Flows, an advocacy and education based organization dedicated to fighting for inclusivity, menstrual equality, and the de-stigmatization of menstruation and periods," the petition reads.

Hoppe approved an initiative to allocate $7,000 per year for menstrual products to go in all bathrooms across the institution – regardless of gender, according to a report from The Berkeley Beacon.

Emily Lang, president of Emerson Flows, said the initial push led to the products being offered in only 30% of women's restrooms across campus, but her group felt access should be extended to all restrooms regardless of gender affiliation.
"While I understand that the majority of the menstruators at this school are cis[gender] women, we should still treat men who also menstruate with the same level of respect," she said, per The Beacon's report. "You get period products just like everyone else, and you get the same amount, because you’re just as valid."
The initiative to bring the products to all restrooms is set to take effect in July.

I worked with a kid (graduated & degreed) from Emerson a few years back. She was amazingly ignorant and uneducated.
If I had a kid in Emerson, I’d pull “them” out before sundown this very day, and demand they apply somewhere else, OR pay 100% of their expenses and costs themselves — effective immediately.
Another low IQ left-wing puppy mill whose days are numbered
Holy cow, check this out...

“...Emerson’s investments generated a 32.7 percent return in 2021, indicating a promising future for the college despite the financial pressures of COVID-19...”
How in Hades did they do that???
I read the opening paragraph 3 times.
Are we really living in this world?
I wonder if the parents that worked two and three jobs to send their kid to that crazy house see the error of their ways now.
You and I know that there are no men who menstruate.
But, they consider the tiny number of women who claim to be transgender men, to actually be men. And based on that logic, they say that there are men who menstruate.
***Emerson College will provide menstrual products in all its bathrooms***
If College age men still have the High School juvenile brain the will have a hoot of a time scattering these.
At least they don’t demand menstrual equity. They would demand that men use tampons once a month.
Thing is, it’s still a men’s bathroom. Which means in all likelihood, these products will be quickly removed and dumped in the toilet, set on fire, stuck to the ceiling, used as replacement toilet paper, and put to any other kind of strange or disgusting purpose that you can think of.
You can let trannies in the men’s bathroom. But you cannot force men to make the men’s bathroom a “friendly environment”. They won’t even do that for other men.
Yeah, and are full of sh*t...
Women who claim to be men are liars.
Women who actually think they are men are batsh*t crazy....
No, this is supposedly for the benefit of “trans men” IOW biological women who “identify” as men & feel they must use the men’s room.
I’m tempted to join Twitter so I can relentlessly mock institutions such as this for their obvious foolishness. The alumni institutions at colleges that promote and encourage this mental illness in students should withdraw all donations and let them know their reasons for doing so.
