You can only lie to yourself for so long.

[knifefightscene]

men b like ‘im gonna use math to sound like an intellectual while telling u how to use tampons u fucking bitch i never graduated elementary or learned how to respect women’

[dare-i-say-asexual]

Just leave each tampon in for 24hrs straight!! What do you mean toxic shock syndrome exists?!

[oysterhearted-deactivated202411]

it’s the 9 periods a year that rlly gets me

[citrineghost]

Does this fucking moron think that you just stick a tampon in and suddenly it’s full of your 5ml of designated blood and then you put another one in and repeat the next day?? It’s continuous you dumb piece of shit.

The ideal amount of tampons you’d use in 24 hours is 4 or so, assuming none slip and have to be replaced. Assuming you don’t take yours out when you shower to replace it after you get out. Assuming you don’t keep them in longer to save money or energy like many do.

The average period lasts 7 days or something. 7x4=28

You account for mishaps as mentioned, that uses up that bigass box in two cycles. I looked up boxes of tampons on Amazon and in the US I’m seeing what looks like at least ten bucks for every 50 tampons. If you’re using up 60+ every two months, that’s over 360 tampons for the year, aka ~$70 not including shipping. Now because most of us can’t afford to drop all that money at once just to save on shipping, let’s add $5 shipping to each 50 as well and thats + $25.

Because there’s also that margin of use for when you use more than 4 in a day, that’s over $100 every year. That doesn’t even fucking take into account that many people have periods nearly twice as long as that which can mean spending $150-$200 instead.

Oh but wait! There’s more!

Another thing this fucking moron forgot to take into account is liners. Cause so many people use them. Tons of people use liners because, without them, they’ll leak into their underwear and destroy them. Granted, these are cheaper than tampons, but you still have to account for the extra ~$20 a year that adds on.

Period cramps? Add on pain relievers.

Destroyed underwear? Add on a fucking absurd amount of money for those because the underwear industry likes to charge out the ass for a stupid piece of fabric for between your legs.

Add all this up and the average yearly cost for someone with a period is over $200 a year.

$200 a year for the necessities, yes, but after all of that suffering we go through, don’t forget that you get one extra, priceless thing added on, completely for free

Complete derision, disrespect, and disgusting treatment from Cis Men TM. Because HA HA HA you have mood swings and cry over everything and get angry over things they don’t have enough braincells to comprehend being upsetting due to their complete lack of empathy for anyone different from them. For the very low price of the very fabric of your dignity, you can be accused of being on your period the moment any little thing slightly offends you.

So yeah, this guy can go take his twenty fucking dollars a year that he doesn’t have to spend on tampons and invest in getting a fucking clue.

on top of all of that he made me read the words ‘extra juicy uterine lining’ with my own eyes, which frankly should be a criminal offense.

[redadhdventures]

Shout out to my Arabic teacher that looked at us yesterday mid-lesson and said, “I’m worried. You all look exhausted and depressed.”

Of we were all like, “Oh yeah we’re dead inside, you haven’t noticed?”

And he snapped shut the textbook, threw up his hands and said, “That’s not healthy! No more vocab! Time for dancing!”

And he taught us a dance from Iraq and we danced instead of doing vocab. We didn’t stop dancing until he saw all of us laughing and was satisfied that we were all feeling better. It was perhaps the coolest, most kind-hearted thing I’ve ever seen a college instructor do.

Fact: bisexuals make up a majority of the LGBT population.

Fact: the majority of bisexuals are closeted.

Theory: If all bisexual people came out, straight people would no longer be the majority. 

[rachelcockspert-deactivated2021]

Do we really make up a majority? Cause the way we’re erased i had no idea. Like really. I thought we were in minority…

[bisexualsaregreat]

The Human Rights Commission of San Francisco released a groundbreaking report on Bisexual Invisibility in 2010 which revealed that, even though only 28% of bisexuals are out (compared to 71% of lesbians and 77% of gay men.) bisexuals out-number gays and lesbians combined, Many studies have followed which verify this data. 

[wearamaskcoward]

There’s also been several studies that have shown that a large percentage of millennials don’t consider themselves exclusively attracted to one gender

[antlerandbone]

Whaaaaat.

[traveler-of-heart-deactivated20]

Bisexual Invisibility more like Bisexual Invincibility

reblogging for the last comment

[bi-trans-alliance]

I’ve had a lot of bi people tell me “I thought bisexuality was almost nonexistent?” when I brought this up.

Bisexuals make up the majority of the LGBTQ+ community and a huge percentage if not the majority of people in general.

It’s easy to feel like you’re alone if you’re bi or questioning. The most powerful thing we can tell bi youth is ‘you are not alone’. It’s what saved my life as a kid.

PADS AND TAMPONS SHOULD BE FOR FREE REBLOG IF YOU AGREE

[thepiscesactor-deactivated20121]

Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.

Abuse has no gender.

I will reblog this until I die.

[sandersstudies]

If somebody won’t be with you because of your identity, then they really aren’t worth your time.

“He won’t like me since I’m trans.” Then don’t like him back.

“She’ll break up with me if she knows I’m bi.” Then break up with her first.

“They wont date me because I’m ace.” Then don’t date them.

There are plenty of people out there, both allies and LGBT+ folks, who will begin and keep relationships with ace/aro peeps, nb/trans peeps, and bi/pan peeps. Don’t waste your time on those who won’t. You are worth a relationship with somebody who is not just tolerant of your identity, but celebrates it with you.

Funny how sex is an irresistible human urge when a man rapes a woman but when a woman gets pregnant and wants an abortion she should have been smarter and thought twice before having sex if she didn’t want a child
