So. Fun story time.
The first time I was getting pads for my GF was pretty traumatizing. Mostly because my-then Gf had given me hyper specific instructions on where to find the pad she needed, and the pads at the spot weren’t that
(They had changed the placement.)
What made it traumatizing is having to call the GF while being screamed at by some karen screeching fundie Christian things at me (as if I were demon possessed,) while also trying to get any staff she could to arrest me; while following me to my car and refusing to let me leave.
Fun fact- it’s illegal to force exorcisms on cops because you’re being arrested. Apparently.
Anyways, Megyn here. She has the same vibes.
Wait, so she was screaming at you for buying pads? I'm so confused
Yup.
Apparently, men aren’t allowed to even go down that aisle.
It was strange.
Mostly, the only coherent thing she was saying is “IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!” complete with a gesture like catholic priest use to sprinkle holy water.
Are you aware that our mothers -- most of them anyway -- pushed each of us out of their VAGINAS??
You're good with that? Totally norms?
Seriously. Are these fuckwads still telling their kids that a stork delivered them as baby or some other fairy tale bullshit?
I'm currently taking a shit mere inches from a box of my wife's tampons and I'm scared, you guys. What if one finds its way into my butt?
Boys may play with them. Which is probably for the best actually. Removing stigma from basic hygiene products can only be a positive thing.
It's not the point of them being there but a nice side effect.
Why do people act weird when you get tampons for your girlfriend?
Wait till they get on a plane and find the bathrooms are "bisexual". These motherfuckers will be jumping out.
the word is unisex, if you're looking for a bisexual toilet, check the eagle club
I’m curious why there are tampons in the boys bathrooms? The only “problem” I see with it is that boys might play with them, stuff them in toilets, and make a big expensive mess.
Because boys can have periods. You understand that biological sex and gender are not the same thing, right?
Not need to be attack-y, they quite legitimately might not have had that on the top of mind when they asked.
They weren't judgemental or aggressive, they just said they didn't know.
It's okay to not know something and ask.
If it wasn't your intent to come across as judgemental or aggressive, then a tone indicator might serve you well next time. :)
I disagree that it's okay to not know that. It's like not knowing that some black people don't like fried chicken.
This is 2024. I don't think there is any excuse at this point to not understand the difference between sex and gender.
