Now I am terrified that someone will start up with “haemorrhoid activism”, and we will all have to pay attention.

A lot of sick people out there. Many of them have the title of “Professor.”

*And, finally, a group of young women under the instruction of Professor Fahs dressed a female student in white pants, put a fake blood stain on her crotch, and filmed her as she walked through a local shopping mall.

The thing to do in response is to confess to being a vampire muff diver, loudly.

Professor Fahs encourages her female students to "out themselves" as menstruating by simply telling people when they are menstruating. She actually tells them to do this, not just with their family and loved ones but also "in a public sense."

Most close girlfriends share this casually with each other anyway, so what all this really is, is just more public humiliation of (real) women under the flag of 'gender neutrality'.

I predict next semester, the gays will be 'pseudo-menstruating' - and 'outing themselves' loudly and publically

The proper thing to do about these ethnic, gender, and queer studies programs is for the governor to appoint regents to dispose of them, completely. They’ll sue, but the response should be that women have representatives in the State legislature to define laws regarding illegal discrimination or bias. No one elected the university professors to perform that function.

I’m a woman and I wish I could unsee this.

I’d love to read this professor’s doctoral dissertation. Wonder where she got it. Certainly none of the schools I’m familiar with.

I still wish I could unsee this.

You just know society is benefiting massively from these kinds of efforts.

I’m sure she has a degree in Gendet Studies; the most useless degree of all time unless sodomy and rug munching are your game...

This prof is just weird!

There is nothing particularly disgusting about someone having their period.... but I see no reason to wear a sign announcing the fact...uggghh.
I wouldn’t wear a sign proclaiming I had a bad case of diarrhea either....ick!

The idea of waltzing through a mall with a huge period stain on your pants is just sickening. How about a huge yellow splotch to announce you wet your pants? ewwww.

I will admit that the terror some guys have when purchasing something like tampons is amusing. Are they worried someone might think they were having a period? Or do they not want it known that they have a girlfriend? lol

Nothing more than the continual smash down of the respect of females, in the name of equality, of course.

Making them as similar to, as coarsely animalistic as, as sex-driven as, as vulgar as men (some)... thus obliterating what makes women different and desirable to men. The mystery, feminity, vulnerability (not that they are weak but it promotes the natural desire of men to protect and revere) is being demeaned in society, but worse, convincing women that's a good thing.

Change that last exercise to:

“*And, finally, a group of young women under the instruction of Professor Fahs dressed a female student in white pants, put a fake brown stain on the back of her pants, and filmed her as she walked through a local shopping mall.

The point of the final exercise was to show that cr***ing all over yourself is no big deal. If there is a “personal” accident then (rather than simply cleaning the mess) women should walk around in public with stained pants. This is a way to reduce the stigma associated with defecation. This is “bodily function” activism.

Of course, Breanne Fahs would not be a real Gender Studies professor if she weren’t complaining about “harassment.” Predictably, she reported that several of her ... activist/students faced “verbal harassment” while carrying out the project. Notable examples follow:
...

*The student walking through the mall with a fake stain on her pants faced stares and snickers and was told that she was “disgusting.” To be clear, Fahs is arguing that a) walking around with a fake toilet accident is normal and that b) voicing objections to walking around with a fake toilet accident is harassment.”

Seriously, is there really any difference? Excreting digestive waste products is a normal occurrence too, but it’s not something people celebrate.

Another group of Professor Fahs' students distributed fliers that warned passersby about the dangers of using conventional tampons.

Better Red than dead?
