Summery: a high school in Connecticut, U.S. that had tampons in the boys bathroom, and the dispenser was ripped off the wall. Of course everyone was upset about this "transphobic act of vandalism." What interested me was the student in the clip saying tampons were already in the nurse's bathroom and the all gender bathroom. It wasn't enough that transmen had access to the products in the gender neutral bathroom, they had to be in the men's room too. My opinion, they are only in there to remind you that if you are critical of gender ideology, your beliefs are wrong, and that the state will enforce its own beliefs that females can be men. What do you think?

I think that I would rip it off the wall too and I'm not a teenager.

I saw posts about this in reddit. They are blaming it on transphobia or boys being boys. The "trans men exist" comments make me sick, I'm tired of religious cults. At this point being transphobic is a good thing

The boys bathrooms in the 80s and 90s were always teetering on the edge of vandalism at my schools. Like half the time you walk in and there were giant wads of toilet paper stuck to the ceilings. I can just imagine you put tampons in there and at least 1 boy is going to do something.
