All this brainstorming for a offensive nickname and they end up with one that points out his efforts to help school children afford essential medical products. Well played GOP.
The name isn’t to point out his efforts but a way to signal to conservatives that, because he cares about tampons, he cares about girls in a way that is “unnatural”.
The goal is to try to label him, put him in a box that the right can point at and say, “SeE?! He MuSt Be A PeDoFiLe!1”
The people who are building the narrative are trying to paint him as worse than “Hide your sofa” Vance, which is a tough sell right now.
I’m actually sort of proud of the Democrats right now. They have, effectively, pulled the mic from the hands of Trump and Fox, name called them to the point that the Republicans are scrambling, actually panicking, about the election.
Boys should be reminded that menstruation is a normal thing every time they use the bathroom.
They will probably mess around with them, and learn how they work. Having their own to play with is better than breaking into girls’ lockers and messing up their precious supplies as happened to me in middle school.
If the school provides a boxful that has instructions, they’ll get the benefit of the diagrams. (Tampax could do us all a favor and label the clitoris, please!)
But even just seeing how small they are might be reassuring to boys whose only ideas of sex come from porn.

This is literally just telling people about a cool thing he did. Like, how many people wouldn’t have known about this if not for the GOP?

The issue is they are twisting it and saying they forced schools to put them in boys bathrooms to ramp up the transphobia.

If I recall the law was all bathrooms. And some trans men need tampons.
And sane, normal americans don’t care beyond “yeah. Menstrual products should be available for any who need them”
You are correct on multiple things. it’s all bathrooms and I, as a normal American, don’t care.
Just funny to watch the straw grasping here from the GOP to attack rather than actually have a policy plan.
