A group of Clemson University students protested the removal of tampon dispensers from the men’s library bathrooms in response to a conservative student group’s complaints.
Holding brightly colored signs reading “Destigmatize menstruation” and “Hello, it’s the 21st century,” around 50 students demonstrated on campus Wednesday to demand school administrators reinstall the feminine hygiene dispensers.
The dispensers were removed after the Clemson College Republicans complained they were found inside the library’s men’s bathrooms.
“If you weren’t aware already, Clemson University has tampon/pad dispensers in the MEN’S restrooms located in Cooper Library. We truly live in a [clown] world,” the student group posted on X on Sept. 13.
Take Back Pride, who organized the protest, said the sanitary products were “unjustly” removed from the restrooms and are asking for them to be reinstalled, as well as for the College Republicans be reprimanded for their role in the removal, according to College Fix.
“Queer people on this campus are not just going to magically disappear,” student organizer Pan Tankersley told the College Fix.
“So instead of working against us, like taking away menstrual products from the men’s bathrooms, making people feel unwelcomed, there should be support for the community that is already fighting to feel safe here.
“If anything, the university needs to step up and needs to protect its students.”

Well hold there on a minute, Bubba. Why do you think they call it MEN-struation?
(ducking)
Does being in the 21st century mean that you are not allowed to use your common sense anymore?
Why? For all the good they would do, they might as well shove
them up their ass.
“Queer people on this campus are not just going to magically disappear,” student organizer Pan Tankersley told the College Fix.
Why not? They magically appeared.
O-o-h I see lots of old jokes that cannot be told on FR. Some going back 70 years.
The article says “around 50,” which likely means closer to 35 ... out of over 23,000 students.
Is this want Clemson wants their new reputation based on, supply of tampons for the young girly men that now make up the student body?
I thought MANpads were an anti-aircraft missile!
Phucking idiots. Just sayin’.
“”””So let me get this straight. The tampons are there because women who think they are men may want to use the men’s restroom?””””
I’m sure hoping that is what it is.
Betcha they support Hamas just like Queers for Palestine. What a group!
It’s not like you don’t have any money as it is.
If you really want cotton mice in your MEN’S ROOM, buy them and put them there yourself. You can even wrap them up individually in Palestinian flags for all I care. Just stop SHOVING YOUR STUPIDITY UP MY BRAIN STEM.
Guess they really picked their battles well.
I have been using public men’s rooms for over six decades, including some at enlightened educational institutions, and I have never, not even in the twenty-first century, seen a tampon dispenser in one. Oh, the injustice, the injustice!
Forcing me to affirmatively participate in your delusion will not cure your mental illness.
The guys at Clemson are pussies. Noted and stipulated.
All women’s studies major
I notice there don’t seem to be any men protesting for the return of the tampon dispensers to the men’s room.
Just tell the ladies that the men’s room is a “safe space” for men and tampons make us feel “unsafe”.
What a bunch of pussies.
