Why would the wording on the box prevent him using them? .. or in some magical way lessen the trauma he is facing?... it wouldn't you're projecting your opinion to demonise anyone who has a counter view on this. Who, if you've noticed are not all women, if you checked your own prejudice you'd see that.
Not being funny, but you are a person that menstruates. So is any young transboy. So is any transman. It’s entirely inclusive of all of you and you all share the product. So maybe any person upset by the words should start realising that this product is not all about them.

You could've used an analogy that was less slanted then imo.
It alludes that anyone questioning this is in some way biased or ignorant.

I didn't find being aligned with terfs funny. I'm a woman, why is it so hard to say?

As said inclusivity has to encompass everyone or nobody... Take male/female men/women off everything or nothing for there to be an equal playing field.

Funny how the word "man" is not being fought over in the same way. Hmm

Transmen are biologically women though.

Maybe the word "female" should be used instead?

Using terms referring to biologial sex to advertise a product to cater to specific biological needs?

Don't be so ridiculous! In 2020?

Oh if you don’t see how calling a transman a female is rude, discriminatory, or at the least, problematic - I don’t think it’s worth us having a little chat.

They literally are female though :shrug: You can't change your biological sex.

Only if they're entirely uneducated.

Yes that's it anyone that asks a perfectly innocent question that requires a legitimate answer insult and ignore them.

Well make your own product that goes in to detail about explaining what a biological female is then. ‘A person that menstruates” is a much faster, kinder, and clearer way to explain this imo.

How do you get educated if you ask a question and the reply is, I don't think it's worth responding?

Nah, the word "woman" covers that quite nicely.

Nothing I’ve said is worse than transphobia, which is the thinly veiled issue in the thread lbr

Should’ve been a bit clearer here

You are approaching this from one angle. Have you ever considered that girls moving through puberty my be finding the transition to womanhood hard, confusing or traumatic?


If you remove the reference that this is part of their journey are you not doing them a disservice?

It's worth talking about, even if some do choose to be offended tbh

Why should women stand aside and surrender their title for some biological males?

See literally every other thread in the last 5 years about trans men. I’ve seen countless different people explain to you and Oliver and other users multiple different times.

It’s a lost cause imo

I’m sure she’ll grow up in a more tolerant generation that realise she’s a woman that menstruates, and there are other people that also menstruates, and with any hope, she’s probably already learned about this and is tolerant of others.

Well it looks like you've made your mind up that anyone who has an opinion that this isn't 100% a great idea is transphobic.

Not much point being in a discussion then.

So, for 5yrs I've had an opinion you haven't agreed with so that gives you the right to label me transphobic?

So an entire gender have to avoid using words that refer to the reality of their biological sex because a small minority of people wish to ignore reality?

So she must grow up and learn to get over herself and be courteous of others but the transwomen mustn't be triggered because their life experiences are more important?

No.

Oh right, so now my whole generation is somehow less tolerant? And this generation will have a 'realisation' that their needs have to come secondary? And they're perfectly fine with that. Ok
