Feminism and a world designed for men

[ElizabethofYork]

How am I?
All I can do is guess if my guesses are wrong then I can't be blamed because as you point out I'm just a man and can only guess.

What? Where did I point out any such thing?

you'll never get an honest answer out of him, he's shameless in his mendacity

 

[weepiper]

Fucking actual hell

Oh get lost. Women would only turn to a first aider/a man because of their periods if they lacked sanitary products and or pain relief. Women don't need you unless you have the key to first aid cabinet.

Thank you for agreeing with my previous post.

But I did have knowledge of how to access what they needed so for treatment. Which they didn’t have so it was a good call on their part.

Thank you for agreeing with my previous post.

I am in awe of your death defying, selfless, knowledgeable and professional, heroic service to women. Thank you MENSTRUATION MAN from all of us.

because of the hygiene of the toilets or because they refuse to use the toilets?

neither poor hygiene nor children refusing to use toilets would be any new thing, see for example s. vernon et al, 'children’s experiences of school toilets present a risk to their physical and psychological health,' in child: care, health & development, 29:1 (2003), 47–53: nonetheless, it is deplorable to make children, either boys or girls, unhappy to use toilets as they need to.

Because they don’t want to share toilets with boys. Because of hygiene, because of privacy, because single sex toilets are a right.

Nobody's ridiculing you for helping someone in pain.

ElizabethofYork Womansplain to me again how no one is ridiculing for helping someone who was in severe menstral pain so much so that they put up with the indignity of a man having to help them. Or do you have Rutita on ignore?

Do you patronise male doctors and nurses the same or just first aiders?

A right?
Like in bill of rights level rights?

1st world problems eh!

Womansplain to me

:D

Oh, what a wag you are!

How did bathrooms get to be separated by gender in the first place?

Interesting read. It's only been a thing for a century and a bit.

Actually access to clean single sex toilets is a problem in many parts of the developing world, you absolute fucking plank.

It is a right. It’s a human right to dignity, privacy and safety. The campaign for public toilets for women meant that Victorian women could leave the house for a decent length of time. Without toilet facilities, women’s lives are severely limited.

 

[trashpony]

Thanks Santino. Fuck knows why I’m bothering.

 

[Gromit]

No access to any sanitary facilities is a 3rd world problem. Brow beating over whether you have to share I would suggest is a luxury and one taken for granted.

 

[Treacle Toes]

YEAH SHUT UP WOMEN. You are lucky to have a toilet to use in the first place. Only women in the 3rd world have a reason to complain. Stop being a luxury wanting, ungrateful, self-important princess.

Because patriarchy had women convinced they had to be concerned about their virtue and reputation etc. not safety concerns. We're supposed to be evolving past such things.

Yes, safety concerns too. Because men just wouldn't be able to stop themselves from giving in to their primordial urges and it would be women's own fault if that happened also. Women were unsafe and held completely responsible for their lack of safety.

You are scum.

Let's face it. You can make all the excuses you want but it breaks down to possessiveness. No one likes change. You've have these private spaces for as long as you can remember. That creates a feeling of ownership and no one likes to give up possession of things.

Men with their men only members clubs fought tooth and nail to keep them. They came up with all the excuses under the God given sun too. If they couldn't keep them with all their male priv I'll be surprised if you can keep toilets.

I'll be honest though. As I'm not trans I don't rest have a dog in the game either way. In genuinely makes no odds to me. I'm just enjoy arguing on the internet. I might as well leave it there now.

Don't want to be accussed of making the thread all about me. Which would be bound to come soon.

 

[Proper Tidy]

Don’t ask me. It’s not for me to speculate what they did or didn’t know or why they thought a first aider was the answer.

But I did have knowledge of how to access what they needed so for treatment. Which they didn’t have so it was a good call on their part.

Does it really irk you so that I could help?

And that's why they call me Period Pete

Yeah we've had it our own way for far too long. We just need to get over ourselves, our vulnerabilities and sensitivities about our bodily functions and stop being so selfish.

he's certainly a creepy cyril

 

[Pickman's model]

You are scum.

we all think that but everyone else can say why they think he's scum.

You ain't the only ones being asked to do that. Men are too. It's a fucking outrage to be honest. At least you are in cubicles rather than sharing in the open with your genitals out.

 

[kalidarkone]

Fucks sake yes, HIS utility belt. Tampons, hot water bottles, guns loaded with paracetamol and ice cream. Abundant chocolate bars in his pockets.

And wine.

 

[Athos]

Shut up Gromit you massive fucking bellend.

 

[Pickman's model]

one thing you can rely on Gromit for is whine
