When we were kids my brother spontaneously got a bleeding nose in the car and all my mother had on hand was a tampon.

She screwed him up real good

What the actual fuck is wrong with these weirdass republicans and their weirdass obsessions?

Clearly Megyn Kelly is clearly concerned about boys being exposed to unnecessary lead and other toxic metals. Got to look out for the health and safety of tomorrow's men.

Now just here me out: What if the girls' bathroom is full up on people, or broken down for some reason. Wouldn't it be nice if a girl had to go into the boys' bathroom in an emergency, that they would have access to those things.

Boys don't have special requirements to use the bathroom. I can go anywhere just about. I can take leak on the side of the road with only a car door for privacy in ten seconds. Boom, I'm done.

And this is why we can't debate nice things.

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.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (8 children)

Because boys can have periods. You understand that biological sex and gender are not the same thing, right?

My only concern would be that 9th graders do some shit with them that they find hilarious. I can totally see a 10 year old shoving one up his nose, try how many they can flush down the toilet until it clogs or soak it with red ink and leave it somewhere for a teacher to find.

[–] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Uh, you can do all of that with toilet paper. And tampons are useful for bloody noses, which teenage boys get sometimes. This is a weird distraction from actual issues and anyone who cares about this is probably a nut.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 11 months ago (4 children)

What? Why would tampons be an issue?

I guess this is American? I know no other country with that level of prude. Poor kids, actually surprising there aren't more STDs over there.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

It is indeed. Megyn Kelly is a right-wing pundit who used to try to appear to be reasonable but has lately given up that pretense.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 11 months ago

They're just cotton cylinders. Unless they're giving out used ones, which seems a tad unlikely.
