Department of Labor refers to women as ‘menstruators’
Washington Examiner ^ | 30 May 2024 | Christopher Tremoglie

Generations from now, people will look back at the infantilization of American society in the 21st century and laugh. If they’re lucky enough, one of the things people in the future will hopefully get to read is a blog by the Department of Labor about “Menstrual Hygiene Day.” And if the silliness of the existence of something called “Menstrual Hygiene Day” wasn’t bad enough, the authors referred to those who menstruate, otherwise known as “women” to every other part of the normal and civilized universe, as “menstruators.”

“Menstruation affects half the U.S. workforce but talking about it at work can be taboo,” a post by the Department of Labor on X read. “For #MenstrualHygieneDay, here are 5 easy actions employers can take to help menstruators thrive at work.”

This post promoted a blog by the Department of Labor highlighting women’s menstruation challenges. Yet, interestingly enough, while it focused on menstruation and offered suggestions of what corporations could do to help alleviate these difficulties, the authors never once used the words “woman” or “women” to describe those who actually menstruate.

“Menstruators,” “menstruating employees,” and a reference to menstruation as a “natural part of half our population’s life” were the only phrases used in the entire article. The only time “women” was used was in a titular role to promote the “Women’s Bureau” as being responsible for the blog post’s contents.

The trannie set is inserting ketchup where the sun don’t shine so they can simulate having periods.

Don’t know if they are also getting someone to kick them in the stomach for cramps :-)

If women had been referred to as “menstruators” a few years ago, that would have been insulting to the max.

so, does that mean if the person doesn’t, they aren’t?
I see trouble brewing.

Menstrual cramps don’t hurt in the stomach, but your point is still valid.

Therefore pregnant females are not women.

Who knew?

Let’s not forget “pregnant person” replaced pregnant woman in journalism style guides.

We’re lucky normal heterosexual people are not called “the breeders” as gays call us.

As a post-menopausal woman, that was my first thought. Am I not a woman now? What about women who no longer have ovaries? Pregnant women?

I am so glad I took early retirement!

No. And pre-puberty girls are not either.

Bet that’s half of all females.

And yet women will continue to vote for Democrats even though they are essentially being erased.
