Feminist runs marathon bleeding w/out tampon to make statement

[SP33Demon]

Proof that you can still be disgusting despite going to an Ivy League school. Maybe men should start crapping themselves while competing in sports?

Pretty sure those are two very different bodily functions.

Fine, pissing. It's still bodily waste that is being ejected.

fucking gross

yes, because pissing and having a period are the same thing too.

This was the first thing that I saw on Yahoo this morning, like it's some wonderful and empowering thing. What she did is like me pooping my pants to raise awareness for people who don't have access to toilets. I get that poor access to period supplies is a big problem across the world but I can think of far better ways to drum up support.

i had to chuckle at a comment i saw about this on another site

"she should have run while shitting her pants to bring awareness to the horrid toilet/sanitation conditions in india"

 

[amdhunter]

What stigma? Seriously? Are there people out there pointing at women who are menstruating?

Honestly - I'd compare this more to a man profusely sweating through his garments when he could easily use anti-perspirant. It's avoidable moisture - why show it if you can help it?

You can obviously eject the blood at will, much like pissing. Women just wear different feminine products because they are lazy and want to go in their pants.














:awe:

You forget that when there's enough of it both are involuntary bodily functions.

What the fuck is 'period shaming'?

Are we just making up "causes" at this point?

 

[manimal]

when I was in seventh grade I took a purse to school and pulled the adhesive on a bunch of tampons and wear them on top of a sweater. I was sent to principles office who made me take off the tampons but let me keep the purse all year at school. Was awsome. didnt really look like a purse but was a ferragamo man purse my sister got me in Torino.


All the other kids thought it was hilarious but wtf why do girls get to carry around this awesome carrier holding everything. Men have rights! NOBODY made fun of me at all. I was the same kid that refused to say the pledge of allegiance because I thought it was fascist.

 

[Genx87]

We all need a cause right? Even if they are made up.

She should have run it shitting and pissing herself to bring awareness to what olympic athletes will have to endure in Brazil.

But one is always, the other is only sometimes. lol

We should all wear Speedos, take some Viagra, then make a statement during a Marathon about Erectile Shaming!!!

Access to sanitary products in poor regions of the world is actually a big problem.

As for the people making this analogous to pissing/pooping in one's pants, please go back and take a health class.

Yes. Social Justice Warriors are just making shit up to be oppressed at this point.

Kiran, who believes the rules would be different if men had periods, added: 'It's intelligently oppressive to not have language to talk about it and call it out and engage with it. I really can't think of anything that's the equivalent for men, and for this reason, I believe it's a sexist situation.'

/facepalm

Championing access to sanitary supplies in the third world is a valid cause.

The bullshit below just makes her another idiot SJW.

Why can't these fruitcakes work towards their good causes without getting stupid and trying to turn it into a problem with "eeeeeevil patriarchy"?
