Clemson University students have rallied to protest sanitary products being stripped from male bathrooms on their South Carolina campus. 

Dressed in bright colors while clinging to signs with messages such as 'hello, it's the 21st century', around 50 students attended the protest this week, calling for the reinstatement of sanitary products in the men's bathrooms. 

The feminine hygiene dispensaries were quietly taken away after the Clemson College Republicans slammed their presence on social media and triggered an onslaught of criticism. 

Take Back Pride, who organized the event, claim machines were vandalized with 'hateful slurs towards the transgender community' soon after the post before the university removed them entirely. 

'Today, we are marching for the reinstatement of the menstrual products in the men's restrooms in Cooper Library and throughout campus,' Pan Tankersley, from the group's march committee, told her fellow demonstrators.
