I really don't get why it's so hard to understand that trans men sometimes still menstruate, and do not wish to be identified as women.

I really don’t get why people get upset/annoyed over stuff like this

There’s people starving all round the world and snowflakes get upset about stuff like this?

top comment from the article:

That is highly insulting to women

If they have transitioned they won’t be menstruating so this is pointless, if they have to use female products while transitioning so be it, they won’t be female forever, I don’t get why some men get so annoyed about an issue that affects women born as women

Its not that simple. Just because you identify as a man doesn't necessary mean that you want to have the operation to change sex.
You can have the gender of a male and still menstruate.

Why does the product have to bow to that persons wishes? Are we not all equal allegedly...

Probably because they're the consumer making the purchase :unsure:

Yet you seem quite happy to alienate a section of people, is that equal?

how many people are we talking about here

roughly?

i think it's inappropriate for men to comment on this particular issue as it is not something that affects them.

Also I’m pretty sure, if you asked pre-op trans women, I’d imagine writing on the back of a box would be the last thing on their minds

Eh Im a consumer as well?

Not at all the product can be produced with both words .....hows that for equality

For women

For people who menstruate

Everyones happy

Delete the thread then LT, we're not allowed to say anything

Does ‘people who menstruate’ not cover all basis? What’s wrong with inclusivity?

I can’t help but find it funny that a large chunk of the women offended by something like this, would probably also be the type of people offended by ‘fathers day’ because it doesn’t include single mothers

I'm a bit torn by this......"for people who mensutruate" is fine as far as I'm concerned but in all honesty why does it need any kind of descriptor like that on it? Its a sanitary product and only useful for one thing.

I got a whole load of pads in with several boxes of odds i bought at an auction and i used them for packing parcels as they were good for fragile items.

Someone left me neutral feedback with the comment "sanitary pads should not be used as void fill"

:oh:

this is truly disgusting i shall be writing to the ceo of superdrug to have these removed from the shelves!!

im talking about the £1.99 clunky mascara they do btw not this

:umm2:

Why cut out women, the person who menstruates no longer wants to be one!

:worry: will they rebrand Tena lady...Tena person
