Washington State University has begun stocking men’s bathrooms on one of its campuses with free menstrual products.
-
The new offering is part of a system-wide effort to be more inclusive of transgender individuals.
In an effort to demonstrate its “commitment to inclusivity,” Washington State University has begun stocking men’s restrooms with free menstrual products.
The initiative is one of many focusing on “improving the transgender community experience on campus,” and is currently being tested in three restrooms on the Pullman, Wash. campus. The university is in the process of “assessing similar needs” at other WSU campuses to determine which men’s rooms will receive new accommodations.
Additional changes include allowing students to choose a name other than their legal name for their student identification card and a new policy requiring all new buildings to have gender-neutral single-user restrooms. Some individuals found the practice of requiring a legal name on student identification cards “alienating” for transgender students who use chosen names.

“Affirming folks’ identities on their CougarCard is a really big piece for us,” Director of WSU Gender Identity/Expression and Sexual Orientation Resource Center Matthew Jeffries, who also co-chairs the Gender Inclusive and Trans* Support Working Group, a function of WSU’s Campus Culture & Climate Initiative, said. Jeffries’ working group has been tasked with addressing “inequities” on WSU campuses through collaboration with departments and other university entities.
“Throughout the system, students are coming forward and advocating for change,” Nolan Yaws-Gonzalez, assistant director of WSU Vancouver Student Center, said. “We’re going to make changes that impact the whole system.”

However, not all students see these changes as productive. WSU College Republicans President Amir Rezamand told Campus Reform Friday that he found the idea of stocking men’s restrooms with tampons and sanitary napkins “pretty ridiculous,” so much so that he feels it is “indicative that we live in a clown world.”
Campus Reform reached out to WSU for comment, but did not receive a response in time for publication.
I guess my question is why the F is America supposed to cater to mental illness or the 0.000000000000000001% demographic?
Tampons and pads are great when used as compression bandages after say, a GSW. Maybe they’re telling you something about the future you weren’t expecting from them? They’re free, grab a tuitions amount of them.
What is a GSW?
Gun Shot Wound.

I thought that was the original porpoise.
No surprise here, act like a pussy, get treated like a pussy.
I will make prediction right now- WSU ends up having to triple or quadruple it’s plumbing budget for the men’s restrooms in order to remove the tampons and pads they flush by the dozens.
Ha Ha Ha LOL! Shades of Animal House!
Though this is clearly mental illness being used to advance the loony agenda of social justice warriors, I have to admit, were I back in high school, I’d be tempted to claim, “Gee, I feel like a girl today,” to get into the girls’ locker room and join some of my fellow girls in the shower. I can retrospectively dream.
Transgenders do not need menstrual products. What am I missing
I would guess it’s women who claim to be men. One would think their periods would cease once they identify as male, unless, of course, they’re just nuts.
With the proper hormone cocktail they will cease. Wait until they force insurance companies to pay for trans hormones and surgery.
Then later they will be forced to pay for the surgery to reverse it.
After the surgery they will have nutz. Will a rack hurt just as badly?

To expand on it a bit,
Who TF are you?
“I’m on the board.”
In what capacity? What’s your title?
“Director of WSU Gender Identity/Expression and Sexual Orientation Resource Center.
I also co-chair the Gender Inclusive and Trans* Support Working Group, a function of WSU’s Campus Culture & Climate Initiative.”
“The working group has been tasked with addressing “inequities” on WSU campuses through collaboration with departments and other university entities.”
Wait. What TF does all that mean? Nevermind. We don’t care. More importantly,
Are you getting paid, or receiving grant monies from some larger group for this, um, position?
“I’m not at liberty to say. And, I’m kind of offended that you’d ask that.”
Yeah, well, if one or more of your trannies starts to hemorrhage, it might be from getting punched in the chops, for checking out another guy’s package while he’s tapping a kidney.
So, we’ll allow your free maxi pads in the men’s shithouse.
Just don’t flush the fuckers down the toilet, please.
They tend to plug up the drain pipe we use to dispose of all the shit that people are full of, around here.

You guys are thinking trannies. Dumbfucks, trannies don’t bleed. The train rolling down the tracks is a Lezzie invasion of the sanctity of the male domain where we whip our junk out and compare gross poundage, they identify as male so guess what, twinkletoes? They are going to use our bathroom – gross poundage or not – and no 16 foot wall is going to stop them.
(I hope Talent Scout isn’t offended)
Let’s quote a FIBer:
“What the hell happened to my country?”
YES… +1,000
Why expose the little ones to the lunacy at all?
Put hustlers in the men’s restroom. That way men can spew their load and help reduce the rape on campus. Yes it s stupid but…….
Cavitated, most men are not rapists. Normal men just go on TBP and rant for a bit until they unleash their load. Perhaps some portion of campus rape is coed’s remorse.
At first I thought this was the Babylon Bee or the Onion….
These GoddamnedQueers deserve a good ass kicking.
