Teen Vogue: 'We need to think beyond the incorrect idea that periods are just for women,'...

(Natural NewsTeen Vogue, the publication that encourages teenagers to consider sex work, is now telling their young readers that "we need to think beyond the incorrect idea that periods are just for women" and that tampons should be available in men's bathrooms.

(Article by Cassandra Fairbanks republished from TheGatewayPundit.com)

In an op-ed for "National Period Day," Courtney Roark, the Alabama policy and movement building director at URGE: Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity wrote that "we've been socialized to understand reproductive health, including periods, assumes a person's gender indicates their reproductive organs — which is not the case."

"The truth is, not all women menstruate and not all people who menstruate are women." the op-ed asserted.

The article argued that feminine hygiene product should be "free accessible in schools, shelters, and prisons, and eliminating the 'tampon tax,' or unfair sales tax on menstrual products." The author explained that since trans people are more prone to be in poverty, this effects the more than others.

Teen Vogue's op-ed also calls for feminine hygiene products to be available in men's bathrooms.

"At URGE: Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity, our dream is for every bathroom to be gender neutral and stocked with free, healthy, and clean menstruation products. In the meantime, we are advocating to provide these products and appropriate disposals in all individual bathroom stalls and common spaces, including men's restrooms," they wrote.

There has been major controversy over this issue after a trans person named Jessica Yaniv, who was born male, began inappropriately photographing children in women's restrooms and claiming that they have a period — which is obviously biologically impossible.
