I'm not joking, this is a real post from a real city in Canada promoting a real leftist holiday called Menstrual Hygiene Day.

City of Victoria
Today we join efforts to reduce the stigma around periods & work towards menstrual equity. City Hall will light up red & display the period flag on our community flagpole.

“We’re staring right into the maw of nuclear armageddon and this is what people fixate on?”

Yes, this is the surreal state of being now (the new normal). The whole world has seemingly morphed into an ongoing Babylon Bee article.

They’re better at nurturing, so they make good elementary school teachers, nurses, and homemakers, which were the fields they naturally gravitated to.

Then feminazis came along and told them they have to forget about being women and enjoying what they love, and instead become “pretend men” and in the process make themselves and men miserable.

Menstrual equity. All people, regardless of sex or imagined identity are henceforward required by law to menstruate once a month for 4 to 8 days.
><><

And they are so warped they hope the males all feel the pain.

Filipino (5.5%)
Latin American (2%)
Black (1.6%)
Korean (2.4%)
West Asian (2.5%)

The more traditional components:

“Other significant ethnic groups include Europeans (43.1%), with British, Irish, and Scottish being the largest European origins. Indigenous peoples make up 2.4% of the population.”

I lived in Victoria for 3 years in the 70s and was distressed by the communist candidate posters around election time but no one I knew at the university supported them.

When I visited England in 1962 and 1966, the place was English, ethnically and culturally. In downtown London, men were expected to wear coats and ties. On my last visit in 1985, I at first thought the airline pilot had made a navigational error and landed in Beirut.

Probably required with frequency set by regulations.

That’s what I’ve heard. I was first and last there in 1972 and it was definitely still British.
