You bleed into a portable bucket if you like. Most women want something that enables you to be much more active - and are much happier with tampons.My wife used a mooncup for years and didnt have an issue with it. Its just as easy as a tampon. But its reusable and therefore doesnt add anywhere near as much into landfill
so whats the issue?
OK, here's each case on its merits; "If you grew up past puberty with a cock and balls and possess a Y chromosome, you shouldn't compete in women's sport". That covers every case. On its merits.
How about "let people who run sports run them the way they want to". If they want to let trans athletes mix with CIS athletes, let them. If you don't like it, don't partake of it.

None, but that's not the point. In a lot of cases, If a trans women (previously male) rocked up at the local female rugby club they would dominate, not only risking physical injury (see that unit in the video I posted) but also put people off participating.
How many actually competed? Only one that I'm aware of and that New Zealander was well old.How many medals did trans athletes get at the Olympics?

Also Christine Mboma won a silver despite being biologically male and will probably break the 200m record soon.How many medals did trans athletes get at the Olympics?
Tbh. I think the obvious issues with sport are largely used to justify not bringing simple quality of life adjustments to trans people.

Just had a vegan fry up. It was OK, vegan bacon is pretty pointless though.
Well, including proper eggs, I'm not a savage.
How society is now, too scared to say "Nope, that's not ok" because they're attacked and branded phobes. It's quite sad really.
Edit: Society needs to take a few steps backwards and judge things logically, rather than bumming ideology because of virtue points.
Society needs to take a few steps backwards and STOP judging things tbh.
Yeah, we aren't turning vegan any time soon, but we are going to be eating more veggie meals and doing things like padding out a lasagna with more veg.
Says someone who doesn't have to use either oOTampons are full of plastic. Much better to use a mooncup thats reusable

I cooked a lovely bolognaise tonight.
The only thing was it was supposed to be a chilli
A bit of hasty improvising and we ended up with a wet chilli
Tasted fine
It took me years in therapy to even admit there had been any kind of victimisation on my part,”. “I would always say I was consenting, and then I’d be reminded like ‘Hey, you were 15, you’re not consenting at 15.’ Now I’m like, ‘Oh yeah, they’re all paedophiles. It’s all statutory rape.’
Not rape?
Alanis Morissette says she was victim of multiple statutory rapes as a teenager
Canadian music star says in new documentary: ‘I would always say I was consenting, and then I’d be reminded … you’re not consenting at 15’www.theguardian.com
Yeah. Sorry. You're able to consent to sex at 15. That's why it's statutory rape.
And if you took years of therapy for someone to convince you that you were a victim then maybe you're a victim of the therapy itself?
