Always removes feminine symbols because 'not everyone who has a period identifies as female'

Procter & Gamble’s Always feminine hygiene brand announced it is removing feminine symbols from its packaging in the name of inclusivity.

“For over 35 years Always has championed girls and women, and we will continue to do so,” the company said in a statement to The Independent. “We’re also committed to diversity and inclusion, and after hearing from many people across genders and age groups, we realized that not everyone who has a period and needs to use a pad identifies as female.”

The decision comes after transgender activists criticized the company for including the feminine Venus symbol on its packaging.

In a letter to trans activist Ben Saunders, which has since been shared online, the company said it would remove the symbol from its packaging starting this December, with full distribution expected by February.

Seriously? Men do NOT have periods! PERIOD!

Transgenderism is a “mental disorder” that merits treatment, that sex change is “biologically impossible,” and people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder.
