From the article:
And finally, as Walz reminds us—anyone who thinks that period jokes are appropriate or funny is just plain, well, weird.
Nah. Period jokes can be funny. The problem here isn’t a joke. It’s the anger they’re trying to stir up about the Boogeyman of transgender students.
Like what the fuck does tampon availability have to do with trans kids? These people are deranged.
“The products must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12 according to a plan developed by the school district”
They got all pissy because the law didn’t explicitly say “girls bathrooms” and didn’t use any pronouns.
? Someone in the middle of transitioning could still require period products.
Because they also may or may not have been available in the boys room. I think that was initially the intention but, well, some teenage boys are going to be dumbasses with menstrual products.
EDIT:
As for the latest round of name calling, it seems the aspect of the Minnesota law that has conservatives most agitated is its language: the law states that pads and tampons must be available to “all menstruating students” and “in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12.” A failed attempt to amend the bill to only name “female restrooms,” did not keep it from passing as is with bipartisan support.
Eating yoghurt is like eating a out a woman in her period - you never know when the klumbs will appear.
