ACLU calls for tampons in men's rooms in order to achieve 'menstrual equity'

By Sam Dorman

Published December 18, 2019

Fox News
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is calling for men's restrooms to include tampons in order to prevent discrimination against "every person who menstruates."

"While free menstrual products are not uniformly provided in women’s restrooms, they are almost never available in men’s restrooms, even for pay," the group said in a statement Tuesday.

"Men’s restrooms are also less likely to have a place to dispose of these products conveniently, privately, and hygienically."

The left-leaning legal group argued that it wasn't a "full or accurate portrayal" to say that women are the only ones who "menstruate, get pregnant, or breast feed [sic]."

ACLU CLAIMS 'MEN WHO GET PREGNANT AND GIVE BIRTH ARE MEN'

"Menstrual stigma and period poverty can hit trans and non-binary people particularly hard," the post read.

The group linked to a legislative toolkit in which it advocated for regulation of menstrual products in public restrooms. The group also favors menstrual products in public shelters and schools.

"Menstrual equity is a basic equity issue," the report read. "Just as we have regulated the provision of toilet paper and paper towels in public restrooms, so too should we do the same for menstrual products."

This wasn't the first time the ACLU made a head-turning comment about gender. On "International Men's Day," the group declared that men could both get their periods and give birth.

There’s no one way to be a man.

Men who get their periods are men.


"Men who get pregnant and give birth are men," the group tweeted in November.

The controversial organization has also defended Medicaid funding for gender dysphoria surgeries and allowing individuals to change the gender marker on their birth certificates. The group also sued a Catholic health organization over its refusal to cover gender-related surgeries, leading to a settlement in which the organization agreed to change its medical plan.

In 2015, the group intervened in a case surrounding gender and locker rooms. A blog post from the ACLU of Illinois claimed that "a transgender girl is female. She is a girl through and through -- not something in between."

The post opposed an Illinois superintendent's claim that their client had a "male body" and suggested the school district's position ran counter to science.

“The superintendent asserts that a girl who is transgender has a ‘male body’ and that transgender students are ‘of the opposite sex’ when defending the District’s position," the post read. “Such assertions are wrong as a matter of science and offensive because they serve to challenge and undermine the very core of a person’s identity."

Looney tunes. Nothing these mentally ill people and their handlers support surprises me any more. I’m at the end of my tolerance rope with all this PC gender crap.

Ya learn something new every day.
I had no idea provisioning of toilet paper and paper towels was regulated.

I'd really like to see the "regulations" related to that.

We're never going to go back to being normal again, are we? I know, "normal" is relative, but this crap is really getting weird.

Last week I read somewhere about a lawsuit because a gynaecologist wouldn't accept a tranny for a patient & now the whack jobs insist that we need tampons in mens rooms.

I hope they are square dispensers because it's hard to balance a cell phone on those rounded TP dispensers.

The only sane response to the “I don’t know what the kids gender I am crowd” is to go back to normal.

Since that isn’t going to happen, just do away with genders in bathrooms. Put the little trash can in all of them. Put urinals in all of them. It is no longer a his or a hers, it is just a bathroom. Use what you need and drive on.

Remember way, way, way back in time six weeks ago when Dennis Prager got laughed at on stage at The Bill Maher Show for suggesting that the left believes men can menstruate. Six short weeks later, bam.

More fitting would be lithium dispensers to treat the mental illness taking place in the restrooms of America.

Let’s see how long the leftist women (actual women that is) put up with some longshoreman walking out after snapping a 2 pound grumpy. Then they’ll be shrieking for “ladies only” rooms.

I'm ok with that. Really. Just as soon as the entire ACLU gives a demonstration of how to "apply" them.

A lot of people don't realize that there are laws, rules, and regulations that cover just about every aspect of our lives. These included.

Isn't government great?

My angle...

I would like to meet the Father or Mother of the lawyer(s) working on this case.

They must be so proud.

What did your $400k of college cost get you?

Your kid is fighting to get tampons in mens rooms.

Real quality "lawyering" right there...sooooo worth it.

Later in life.... "what did you do with your life Grandpa/Grandma?"

"well dear...you know those tampons in the mens room?....I DID THAT!"

Grandkid: DA FUQ?!?

Im not 100% sure what you mean...but I'd be prouder of my kid having an honest job of, say, running a honey dipper truck, than if they were the lawyer I outline.

In that case, I'd wonder where I went wrong in parenting...and cry over my wasted money helping that kid become a lawyer to promote this crap!

What 'caliber' are these and if I put a little Hoppes on it, are the strings long enough to pull through a pistol barrel?
