Is this going too far? Always removes Venus symbol to acknowledge transmen who menstruate

I guess the overhead signs in CVS are next.

It is about a product, intended solely for females, giving a nod to the concept that men menstruate.
This is insane. Sure, guys, call yourself a woman, but biologically, you are still male and cannot menstruate, give birth, or breastfeed.

I don't think it's biological men "menstruating." This is about people who were born into female bodies, that identify as men. Because their bodies are female, they will menstruate...but they consider themselves men, so they are "men who menstruate."

They are not men. Men don't menstruate.
It's simple biology.

OP draws in the hateful a-holes with her pot stirring. Nice job.

The issue isn’t about hate, it’s about the dumbing down of discourse to the level of people like you.

The fact that you think inclusion is something to be DEBATED says a lot about you - it says you’re a hateful a-hole.

What if I feel excluded by this gesture?

I think the question is: is this really inclusion? Or, is this unnecessary flexing?

As a woman, should I be offended by blue?

Venus’s symbol is a mirror, so that in its self is rather sexist and a reason to forego the logo.

I don’t care why they change their packaging.

You can say it all you want, but it used to be a silly euphemism for "menstrual products," and it still is a silly euphemism.

I want them to call them what they are. Also, I'd like them to use a red liquid, not a blue one, in commercials. I don't bleed blue.

It's a symbol on a piece of packaging.

It doesn't affect me in any way and while I think the reason behind it is a little over the top, it's an attempt to be more inclusive and understanding. I'd much rather see more of that in the world than less.

Apologies....I see that the issue is still over your head. Perhaps Jeff should start a low IQ forum where you might feel more comfortable.

Yes please.

Also, sincerely hope that making it a gender-neutral product means the pink tax can be eliminated.

I hate Bill Maher but am very liberal. I think this is ridiculous but also just cant care much about it one way or the other. I think its dumb that they did it but I cant imagine being offended that they did it.

I don't care what's on the box. If I need it and want it, I consider it for me, and I use it. I don't care who else uses it.
