Clemson students protest removal of tampons from men’s restroom

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.”

Tell the female humans to carry their own pads or tampons. What is wrong with these people? Who on earth would rely on a public dispenser (free or coin-op) for something that, when you need it, you really need it?

You keep track of your cycle with your calendar, and you always have supplies with you. This is being female until menopause.

When I was growing up in the '70s, I imagined the US would be much different in post-2000 era. I never imagined the main difference would be widespread mental illness.

A group of.... 5 or 6 alphabetized freaks?!? Has anyone ever asked these idiots just where, exactly, are the "trans women" supposed to put the tampons?!?!

I mean, seriously. At some point, even the Left among us need to say, this is such BS.

"Buckle bunnies"? "Meat gazers"?

I had to look those up (thank you, Urban dictionary).

By all means, reinstall them back in the boys room. Then, I suggest foaming the dispenser with Great Stuff. Also good for filing gaps and cracks if a guy is menstruating...

Next, they'll be demanding the removal of the "Pointers" and "Setters" signs on the restrooms.

They’re for the whiny wokesters to stem nosebleeds after they get into the wrong people’s faces with their obnoxiousness.

I’m a college graduate and at no time whatsoever did I ever need a tampon when I used the men’s room.

‘Tampons in men’s restroom in case they run out of toilet paper!’

That’s the ticket!

I’m going to have to ask my sister about that. That is where she and my nephew graduated.

"Educated" college students joining in and pandering to the delusions of the mentally ill -- the seriously mentally ill -- who truly believe men can menstruate. Only women can, of course, including even those pathetic, seriously mentally ill, delusional women who imagine themselves to be a man.

One thing is certain: If a biological male starts to bleed monthly from his pelvic area he had better seek medical attention. Wasting valuable time seeking a mens room with a tampon dispenser so that he can shove a tampon up whatever his orifice of choice won't solve that serious medical condition.

(I'm so effin' tired of this crap!)
