Can someone explain this...
A Connecticut law passed in 2023 stated that, effective Sept. 1, 2024, "each local and regional board of education shall provide free menstrual products," available in "women's restrooms, all-gender restrooms and at least one men's restroom, which restrooms are accessible to students in grades three to twelve."
Why put tampons in boy's restroom in schools? What is a third grade boy (age 8-9) going to do with a tampon?
Possibly to accommodate women who use the men's room.
Really, to signal allegiance to the idea that the issues of transsexuals are the most important political issues of the day.
u It's just another small chapter in the book of make believe!
I've been to the men's bathroom plenty of times. If I have to go I will go. I'm not going to wait in line.
Is it ok if guys use the girls bathroom?
They've been putting free ones in men's rooms here for ages. It's just a box ticking equality exercise.
@purplepoppy
Now, just how do you know this? 🤔😂
Common knowledge
Next we going to have boys going into girls bathrooms and Naughty peeking Tom's pretending to be LGBT. We need to Protect our children
This Madness has To Stop.
We cannot risk our girls getting hurt unnecessary. We are endangering our Girls. With this LGBT Crap. Girls are being harmed in this situation more than boys. Wake Up America. Before it's too late. You endangering your Daughter
@purplepoppy
Well this is certainly news to me.
@purplepoppy Thanks for sharing this interesting news tidbit. Is there a published readin for it? Maybe to encourage men to have period sex, where chance if pregnancy is the lowest? Or maybe because the one in the women's restroom is always empty?
The boys can always sell the Tampons outside of school to make extra money ✌️😁😅🤣😉😜
Here you go, afraid they're pdf docs.

Are they going to give free uterus Implants Too? That would be nice
We need to Protect our Girls.
It's our duty. Open Dialogue communication and The freedom to ask questions. We ALSO need to have a Word with the Boys too.
We cannot allow this madness to consume the minds of developing Brains. It's up to Parents
Also we need to Provide Proper Guidance and insight. Because this is all Pure Bolony
Um how often are you in men’s bathrooms?
Tampons were once coated in cocaine as a cure for piles.

Don't know, but when I was at school we didn't even have a vending machine in the girls toilets. If we got 'caught short' we had to ask for a tampon or towel at the school office.
They're usually good for packing bullet wounds. Also good for packing a nostril after a bad fight.
A third grade boy is not going to do anything with it, its there to satisfy the type of freaks who pretend they can’t tell the difference between male and female
Maybe for the girls pretending to be boys with vaginas? Because everyone has to accept the trans people.
The same reason they put toilet roll in rest rooms.
It may surprise you that female attendants and cleaners may also use men's bathrooms. (world shaking, I know!) when they are in there.
lady go to lady room.
Maybe it is for the people that actual medical condition "Gender Dysphoria". If they have both down there, they might need feminine hygiene products too.
“What is a third grade boy (age 8-9) going to do with a tampon?”
You understand that the bathrooms in question here cover a range of ages, and not just grade 3 (age 8-9)
The reason he specified age is because most grown men have no clue about girls periods
So what do you think little boys will know about that?
Give up?
NOT A GODDAMN THING!
@AnusNdaPainus.
Meh! I spent years as a kid wondering what they were too. It’s not the traumatic experience people are trying to make it out to be.
Answer me this: What can a little boy do with a tampon?
We don’t have eggs , our bodies make sperm
@AnusNdaPainus
Nothing. They are not meant for them.
Same as they weren’t meant for me when I was that age.
Now, as people grow, they may, or may not need them. But they are there just in case.
From my POV, if the one in the women’s bathroom is empty, good chance there will be one in the men’s.
Works for me, and it costs you nothing.
Yay!
for the girls who want to be boys and use their bathroom... (shaking my head at society)
The lgbt community believe that males can menstrate 🤣😅😅😁😉✌️they believe that Cis-men can menstate check tiktok and YouTube. 🤣🤣🤣😅😁✌️😁
i guess for trans who still have female parts. weird.
There is a guy who sells tampon machines that was a big donor to the democrat governor of Connecticut. He will make a fortune and the taxpayers get screwed again.
It's for trans men that need to use the restroom. There are people who use the restrooms who are older than 8-9 years old.
@AManOnTheWeb WOKE IDIOT.
@KrakenAttackin How so?
"Trans men", means mentally ill females.
@KrakenAttackin And this is based on? Have you reviewed the FMRI studies? Clearly you have a PhD in psychology or an MD in psychiatry? or at the very least you're a mid-level PA or PRN in a mental health capacity?
@AManOnTheWeb. You have bought into insanity.
@KrakenAttackin "Insanity" is a legal defense stipulating that the defendant acknowledges committing the acts but lacks the requisite mental state to be guilty of the crime. I'm just following the science on the topic. Clearly you have a strong medical opinion, that must come from years of education in mental health, right?
Trans men aren’t men
@AnusNdaPainus You can't argue with an idiot.
@KrakenAttackin I'm clearly outmatched in this high level intelligent conversation you're having with anus in the painus.
@AManOnTheWeb. I am not going to argue with a fully indoctrinated Wokey. Men are not women, and women are not men. Next you will argue the benefits of being a "minor attracted person".
I have nothing for you except the knowledge that your ideology is poison and must be stomped out.
@KrakenAttackin Sorry, following the current scientific models of sex and gender isn't indoctrination. How do you make decisions about the world? Open fortune cookies? When you get in an elevator do you give Miss Cleo a call to see if it's safe? or do you trust that science and engineering made a safe contraption for you to use? When you turn on your tv, do you think it's magical little spirits that make the picture move? or do you realize that science made that happen?
Common sense is not so common 😂
Men are men
Women are women
Even babies know this
@AManOnTheWeb. "Current models"? Gender is not like fashion, it doesn't change with the season.
@AnusNdaPainus When was the last time you read a book that didn't have pictures in it?
Common sense would tell us that planes can't fly, the Earth is flat, and that a witch who floats is being held up by the devil and should be burned at the stake.
I know this may sound like craziness but that machine you're typing into, is actually made using this thing called Science (it's not actually magical spirits). For those who attended school, they learned that sometimes Science surprises us and that the natural world is more complex than our intuitions. I'd mention double slit experiments, and relativity, but those are probably a little too advanced. Perhaps you've seen a gyroscope spinning on a string? It ain't magic holding that thing in the air, it's physics.
It turns out that sometimes people are born with a mind that doesn't match their body.
Ok let’s try this again
Can a person change their gender.
@AnusNdaPainus I'm I don't think so. My understanding is that your mind is born the gender it is, which usually matches your sex (CIS Gender), but occasionally doesn't. You can have surgery and take hormones to alter your body to more closely align with your mind's gender. When people do this they tend to be happier and live better lives. When people try to force their minds to be the opposite of what they feel (as you seem to think they should), they often end up committing suicide.
Let me put it this way. Are you gay?
I could easily think of better alternatives like a xylitol chewing gum dispenser.
Its just the delusional trans people pushing their insane fantasy into the real world. Actually, we are the insane ones for allowing it and worse, the mind bending of our young children.
Let's not get into the world of madness. Never wants to be the part of that society.
I got a feeling that JUST IN CASE one of them is a trans man.
What's a boy going to do with it...
Hopefully burn down the school. Great as firestarters...
I got expelled from school because I was always playing with lighters and hand sanitizer
For the men who get periods... wait men don't get periods.
No they don’t
@jacobjordan Trans men get periods. There could be trans men that need to use the restroom. What's the big deal?
@AManOnTheWeb trans men are not men hence the need for the descriptor trans before the word men. Men don't need a descriptor because men are men. Same way women are women. Have seen the gene sequencing and chromosomes of trans people and guess what... trans men don't have XY chromosomes. And trans women don't have XX chromosomes. Which is odd since if they were the gender they claim to be they would have the chromosomes of that gender.
@jacobjordan But when they do FMRI brain scans trans men have the same patterns as men and trans women have the patterns as women...
@AManOnTheWeb FMRIs temporal resolution is limited by hemodynamic response time typically the BOLD response has a width of ~3s and a peak occurring ~5–6s after the onset of a brief neural stimulus this is much slower than the underlying neural processes and temporal information is thereby heavily blurred
With FMRI they are correct but the interpretations are commonly inaccurate
@AManOnTheWeb
Trans men are not men they are women who hate themselves so much that they reject who they really are
That’s what this whole trans movement is
A bunch of people who hate themselves and honestly it’s heartbreaking to see someone mutilate themselves because they can’t accept what they see in the mirror
@AnusNdaPainus "Trans men are not men they are women who hate themselves so much that they reject who they really are"
Do you have any scientific evidence to support your claim? or is it just and epiphany you had while watching the monster truck rally?
@AManOnTheWeb I have more than enough scientific evidence to support the claim that that trans men are not men. Or trans women are not women. Some of it I shared earlier. If you really want to get humiliated I can share more of it. Like the bone density differences, the bone length differences, mineral differences, or perhaps something simpler like the fact trans women have the pelvic bone of a man... because they are men. And trans men have the pelvic bone of a woman... because they are women. The pelvic bone is the one bone that is 100% gender based.
@jacobjordan How does any of that refute the idea that a trans man has the mind of a man trapped in the body of a woman?
@AManOnTheWeb i didn't say it did I said it proves trans men are not men and trans women are not women. You really should read, comprehend, then respond.
@jacobjordan I guess logic isn't your strong suit. The claim is that trans men have the bodies of women and the minds of men. Evidence supporting they have the bodies of women doesn't help your position--we're both in agreement. You claimed to have "more than enough scientific evidence" but have shown nothing to discount the mountains of data supporting that trans men have the minds of men.
@AManOnTheWeb I am not talking about the mental delusions they are going through. I am talking about the fact they claim to be x when they are in reality y. Which you would know if you could comprehend anything beyond the woke indoctrination you have inhaled like so much cocaine.
@jacobjordan Is it a mental delusion if their cognitive hardware is wired like a man? If their body is a Mac but their brian is a PC? If that's the case we would expect to see FMRI data that would support such a hypothesis--which is exactly what we observe in experiments. Furthermore after gender affirming care, these people have better outcomes than when treating it like a delusion is pursued. That would strongly support the notion that trans men are men in gender, but women in sex. And guess what? People who have degrees in healthcare and who read books with more than a few pages in them, have spent years studying this thing. It's not my opinion, it's science.
@AManOnTheWeb lol I am a scientist and I have seen all the information and they have the genetics of the gender they are not the gender they claim to be. They have the pelvic bone of the gender they are not the gender they claim to be. They have bone density, muscle mass, bone length, vitamin and mineral levels of the gender they are not the gender they claim to be. Even in regards to fmri as proven by people with severe delusions if they fully believe in their delusions it registers as "positive" during the scan which is why fmri are not considered a viable source for proof of the validity of a mental change. If a trans woman doesn't dilate regularly after the surgery to give them a "vagina" it closes. Do you know why? Because it isn't a vagina it is a gaping wound that is trying to heal. Any animal in nature that is able to change sex from male to female or female to male is able to do so without any external intervention as the ability to do is is in their genetic code. Humans do not have such code therefore humans can not be transgender. It is a scientific and biological impossibility.
@AManOnTheWeb if their “cognitive wiring” already tells them they are something why would they need surgery? Is it because our loving and caring medical professionals just want to help or because trans surgery can cost up to 60k?
@jacobjordan A scientist who as seen "all of the information?" Amazing! How many years have you been practicing medicine? And why does your opinion seem to contradict the standard of care for gender incongruence as outlined in the Journal of the American Medical Association "Standards of Care for Transgender and Gender Diverse People" from May of last year? Back when you read it (and you clearly have read it because you "have seen all the information." and weren't exaggerating your understanding of the medical literature) why do you think the entire medical field pursued the current standard of care? Was it because your proposed solution results in higher rates of suicide?
You seem very hung up on the idea that evidence supporting that transgenders have the sex of their birth is somehow confirmatory to your position, and delusional believe that it somehow contradicts the current Scientific model of sex and gender, when it's entirely consistent with current theories that sex and gender are different, and they can be mismatched in some people.
And I'm confused by your comments about FMRI: "fmri are not considered a viable source for proof of the validity of a mental change." One would not expect to see a change in the FMRI...
@AManOnTheWeb An fMRI captures scan data from second to second brain activity changes in tiny fractions of a second so fMRI can't scan fast enough to capture very detailed brain activity
@AManOnTheWeb I have been a scientist for almost 20 years and in that time I have seen nothing to suggest people who claim to be transgender are in fact the gender they claim to be.
Being a scientist for 20 years doesn't mean much in this conversation if you're a geologist or a particle physicist. If you were a psychiatrist or psychologist that would be meaningful. Also you said "I have seen all the information" which if find a pretty remarkable accomplishment. There must be tens of thousands of detailed documents and studies relevant to the discussion. You've read them all though, so how many are there in total, as of today? It's clearly a topic you've devoted a large portion of your time to understanding.
@AManOnTheWeb you don’t even need a college degree to be a psychiatrist or psychologist
@AManOnTheWeb that degree is the real estate license of degrees
@AnusNdaPainus "... you don’t even need a college degree to be a psychiatrist or psychologist"
One is an MD and the other is a PhD. They both require an undergraduate BS, and then a doctoral program as well as clinical residency. That ain't the "real estate license of degrees." Were you homeschooled?
@AManOnTheWeb you’re trying to make it sound like you’re some genius by calling yourself a scientist and you have the easiest degree to obtain
That’s what makes it the real estate license of degrees because literally anyone with a plebeian rodent brain can obtain it
@AManOnTheWeb I am a biochemist one and I own my own lab. One of the things my lab does is study genetic code, proteins, mineral and vitamin levels as we are one of many labs responsible for producing various things to aid people in survivability like supplements or vaccines, medicine etc in addition we run tests on how things effect the human body by studying effects of things on the blood. So I have literal access to scientific proof that trans people are not the gender they claim.
@jacobjordan So you have no expertise or experience in studying mental phenomena?
@AManOnTheWeb he has studying the chemical and physical principles of living things and of biological processes
When trans “ Men “ die in 100 years his research can’t tell what they thought but it will tell that every chromosome in that trans “ Man “ is female
@AManOnTheWeb precisely what @AnusNdaPainus said. I have extensive experience and expertise in studying the chemical and physical principles that govern living things in addition to how various external factors effect, change or alter the biological properties or chemical properties of living things. Here is another fact. If we were to remove the uterus, ovaries etc from a woman and put them into another woman the odds of the transplant being successful are low but possible. However if we did the same thing and transplanted them into a trans-woman... they would either die or be in the hospital with massive infections, blood poisoning etc. Because the human body reacts to the introduction of a uterus and other female organs in a male as an invasive entity and as such attacks it. Male genetic completely rejects female anatomy. This applies to both men and women. This is why it is not scientifically or biologically possible for humans to be transgender as we call it or as it applies to non sentient beings: they do not have the genetic code or information required to switch sexes. Animals that can do this contain the information, the code and the various other biological prerequisites in their form to do so. Humans do not have any of that. They don't have the genetic code, the genetic information, they do not have the biological resources, cellular information etc to swap sexes from female to male or male to female. No amount of delusion, belief, or ignoring facts will change this reality. The only way humans will ever be able to swap genders is if humans evolve to have all of those things I just listed
@jacobjordan So to continue to repeat myself. There is not controversy that trans men have the physical bodies of women. We both agree on that point. Every scientist, psychologist, psychiatrist, endocrinologist etc. ALL AGREE on that point. Providing future evidence in support of that point does not strengthen your case. I'm not sure how you're incapable of understanding this as someone who says "I have seen all the information." Basic logic would inform you of this fact.
The gender dysphoria is a result of mental phenomenology. Something with which you apparently have little-to-no experience or knowledge, unless you somehow are the first human on earth with a complete and accurate understanding of human cognition. You've likely never cared for a patient, assessed risks and benefits for treatment plans for mental health or seem to have any insight beyond: "boys have a penis, girls have a vagina."
@jacobjordan Medical professionals have treated folks with gender dysphoria as you suggest, by considering it a delusion. They kill themselves at a much higher rate than when patients are treated with gender-affirming care, which is why your incomplete model of sex and gender is not the one used by the American Medical Association and that your approach is specifically rejected. But you knew this because you ""have seen all the information."
You're referring to this phenomena as a "delusion" likely because your vocabulary and understanding of mental health is incomplete. Delusion does not apply if the belief is bona fide, as it is in the case of gender dysphoria. Here's a thought experiment to help you understand. Imagine the next time you fell asleep, aliens appeared, injected you with a virus that swapped your XY chromosomes for XX and you developed primary and secondary sex characteristics overnight in your sleep. You wake up in the body of a woman, but you "know" in your head that you're a man with the wrong parts. Are you going to be happy learning to suck dicks, make out with dudes, and squatting in the woods? Or at least become a lesbian and date lesbians? Would you kill yourself?
@AManOnTheWeb my understanding of mental health is quite good. Here is a fact for you. Delusion: a false belief or judgment about external reality, held despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary, occurring especially in mental conditions. Trans people believe and think they are a different gender than they are and continue to believe and think that despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary. So trans people 100% fit the factual definition of delusional. Now your thought exercise is an incredibly flawed approach. It presumes that I spent many years as a man and suddenly was the entire opposite gender from the chromosomes to the reproductive organs. Trans people THINK they are a different gender. Facts prove they are not. Facts prove they are delusional. This is not a complicated thing.
@jacobjordan Are you asserting that it's impossible for there to be a "male" configuration of neuropathways comprised of XX neurons that produce a male brain structure with genetically female neurons? Experimental evidence supports such a theory and the current models of the mind and gender reflect this fact. There are people who have intersex chromosomes, so there's precedence in the human body for gender and genetics to sometimes get scrambled.
@AManOnTheWeb yes there are extremely rare mutations that can result in a male have the chromosomes of a female. Or vice versa. There are also rare genetic mutations that result in a baby having both a vagina and a cock. Guess what though. one of them doesn't function and it based on the their gender. For example a little girl who is born with both the cock won't work. For boys the vagina won't work. Neuropathways are unimportant when it comes to biological information. You can have the neural pathways of an apache helicopter it doesn't make you one. It makes you mentally challenged. Gender and sex are the same thing. And biological fact is that if you were born with a vagina and you bleed out of that hole every month for around 40 years you are a woman/female. If you were born with a cock and if you tug it enough white sticky stuff sprays out you are a man/male. What you think and what you feel is irrelevant and unimportant and contributes nothing to changing those facts. We will not see a genuine transgender person for 100s of thousands of years and even then it is not a guarantee. If you are going to try and debate something have the decency to not have to Google everything it is pathetic and silly.
@AManOnTheWeb There is actually no precedence for gender or genetics to get scrambled. Don't speak on biology or genetics you aren't smart enough to understand the subject. There is precedence for genetic mutations to happen. Mutations that are flukes and exceedingly rare and do not actually change the inherent understanding of biology or genetics. Red hair is a mutation. So is having 2 different eye colors or having a cock and vagina. Or having a stump for an arm. Or conjoined twins along with thousands of other mutations none of which have changed the basic understanding of biology or genetics. You are presenting the same level of delusion as trans people by your inability to accept incontrovertible evidence proving that trans people are not trans. If you plan to respond at least have the decency to come correct and factual for once. It is quite tedious having to correct and explain the same things to you repeatedly especially when my 5 year old understands this subject...
@jacobjordan "You can have the neural pathways of an apache helicopter it doesn't make you one." Apache helicopters have neural pathways? Maybe that's stuff you learn about in advanced biochemistry? Were you playing with your transformer action figures again? I know it's easy to get confused, but those are make-believe.
Again, it's really not that complicated: if someone's neural architecture (regardless of the chromosomes within the cells that make up those neuron cells) are configured in a way that produces a male mental experience, then it is a authentic male cognitive experience and thereby definitionally not a delusion. It turns out that cognition is a more complex phenomena than what 5 year olds understand. This model best fits the data and clinical outcomes.
If your model of human cognition were correct, why doesn't treatment for delusions work? but gender affirming care does? My 5-year-old niece could explain that one to you.
@AManOnTheWeb keep being woke lol you will see why it was a bad idea. Trans people commit suicide at a rate infinitely higher than the rest of the population regardless of what they receive. I told you to not reply unless you were coming with facts and you decided to continue with your idiocy. So I will bid you adieu. You enjoy your delusions and lunacy. Have a day
Marxism.
This is why all education should be privatized. The government fucks up everything they touch.
Anything Goes Today. lolxxoo
Clown world
@AnusNdaPainus Drag. lolxxoo
Drag is fine but why do they have to expose children to that
Drag queens do drugs and some of them sell their bodies
Children’s should not be exposed to that
But a lot of people in the alphabet community have been robbed of their innocence at a young age
( SA) and I sympathize with them as someone who was also ( SA ) as a child but this stuff is not Okay
@AnusNdaPainus I Agree, dear. xxoo
Just another stupid Woke government waste of money. People are getting stupider by the day
For rapist teachers to soak up the evidence of their acts against said 3rd graders
maybe so that the guy could get it for his girlfriend or wife if needed
Probably for them to play with?
Insanity. Pure leftists insanity.
Bidenomics
Sounds like a waste of taxpayer money
Kinda weird
