"you can say you've had to use menstrual products in your life (gender euphoria) :)"

What would that "gender euphoria" look like in Tanzania? (source)

Why don't you miss out on crucial parts of your education because of "gender euphoria"? (source)

(source)

Why don't you spend 18,000 pounds on overtaxed sanitary products for your "gender euphoria"?

or why don't you give yourself an infection every once in a while for your "gender euphoria"? Why don't you stop eating for a couple of days to afford your overpriced period products? (source)

Ah, yeah, I know why. Because womanhood for you is just picking and choosing the things you like and not doing the things you dislike. Good for you, but a lot of us don't have that privilege.

"A law has taken effect in Scotland to ensure period products are available free of charge to anyone who needs them.

The Scottish government said it became the first in the world to legally protect the right to access free period products when its Period Products Act came into force Monday.

Under the new law, schools, colleges and universities as well as local government bodies must make a range of period products available for free in their bathrooms. The Scottish government already invested millions of pounds since 2017 to fund free period products in educational institutions, but the law makes it a legal requirement.

A mobile phone app also helps people find the nearest place — such as the local library or community center — where they can pick up period products."

23 of January 2011, The 25th of January 2011 revolution in Egypt has already begun & I was a 10 years old staying at home cause we had curfews imposed by the government at that time.

I got my first period on that day the 23rd of January, I was lucky enough to get the guidance of my mother, to find sanitary period products to use, I had water to shower & have warm drinks & before curfew my parents were able to get me some sweet stuff I would crave.

If you don't know, that was a dangerous time in my country as chaos were happening everywhere that hypermarkets were stolen at that time & it was dangerous especially that a terrorist attack happened before it as well.

Why am I mentioning all of that? Because as I had the privilege to have all that during dangerous time when I had my period the Palestinian women do not have that privilege at the moment, it has been more than 70 days which could mean women there might have had 2-3 times of continuous bleeding if not more due to the stress & anxiety they're living through.

During that time we always wish for warmth, food, pads/tampons/menstrual cups or whatever you use & alot of things that brings us comfort let alone out mental needs as well.

These women have none of these, I've seen a post about a Palestinian woman who had to cut from the tent to make herself a pad that's 100% not sanitary with their lack of at least water to start with.

Simple life needs don't exist there & these women & the girl who might get their first periods other than the fact that they lack all that, they might not even have someone to guide them through their first period cause more children have been orphaned.

Sadly I don't have donation links to post regarding this subject but if you have please reblog with them so we can spread awareness about this sensitive subject.

Evil landlord coworker is so evil and so a coworker I really can't cope

#Me Fein #She's periodically like. Pleasant to interact with. And makes an effort with Jamie's pronouns.#Which gives me huge whiplash when she then talks about how everyone on benefits is subhuman #Or about how her accountant is helping her commit fraud #Or how she gets any works done on her house deducted from the taxes she pays as a landlord #By claiming they're done on her landlord property instead #etc etc etc etc #I'm a gentle soul. I don't like meanness and cruelty :(#I don't like someone being decent to me but not decent to other ppl?????#I care too much!! I can't take it!!!!#I don't know how to respond to this situation in a both moral and. Professional way.#🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪#Eefa sells her labour

god DAMN IT at work tomorrow people are going to ask me what i did with my long weekend and i'm gonna have to say like "i started a new oil painting!!" and they're gonna be like "oh cool, what are you painting?" and either i will have to admit in front of god & my coworkers that i'm painting a portrait of itachi from naruto because i imprinted on him at the formative age of 13 and have not recovered in the intervening decade, or i will have to lie

but i want to show off my progress photos i think it's going really well :((((

#the trashcan speaks #the keyboard i use at work already has katakana on it i dont need to seem like any more of a weeb. yknow #I GUESS THE THIRD OPTION IS 'oh i did a lot of reading about tax policy in sengoku period japan'
