SALLY! how do you deal with your mom telling you she’s going to kill herself that day? for fucks sake.

Is it trolling? I think Doe has a legitimate grievance and also serves a higher principle of secularism and fairness under the law. It’s certainly not a joke. I’m not a Satanist but I feel exactly the same as she does on the matter.

HAIL YEAH!!

They are the troll heroes that we need, not the troll heroes we deserve.

Suddenly gone are the days in which Religious Privilege seemed to exist to the benefit of a single creed. All at once, the all-too-numerous flagrant theocrats holding public office across the nation are made to sullenly realize that Religious Liberty isn’t theirs alone. Hail Satan.

I love these Satanists.

The Satanic Temple continues to be the troll heroes of the people.

In many primitive cultures women that were on their period had to leave the group for a while, though they usually had places designed for this purpose. Remains of such behaviour can still be found in some cultures and religions.

Can we do a socialist overthrow instead? I’d be down for that.

Great summary! One minor correction. I have been sewing for Days for Girls for over a year and I can verify you do NOT have to have an overlock machine. I sew liners for them with my regular at home machine all the time. Please don’t feel you can’t contribute with the sewing machine you have.

I wish I knew more about the topic, but no one ever discusses it. Hell, you read books about people surviving in the wilderness and there’s no mention of what is done during periods.

I’ve always thought the SAME EXACT THING when learning about past times!!!

I think that all the time too! Seeiously, what did women do before disposable menstration products??? I assumed maybe they used whatever they used for babies (a clothe diaper thing?) I remember reading a story about olden times Japan and they used a washable loincloth type thing, but idk how accurate that is (was a…

Seriously. What DID women do? I really want to know.

Congratulations on finding something in this story to complain about!

Did you not read the bit about how even talking about it is taboo? Call em Care Bears if it improves lives. If people are freely able to talk about them they are more likely to you know....use them...make more....etc.

I swear to God I think about what it would be like to not have all the modern things, (toilets, pads, tampons, toilet paper, etc.,) every time I have my period. Every time I inwardly shudder to think that even as bad as it is already, how much worse it could be. Like what did they do in the Middle Ages, when even rags…

Maybe this is nit-picky, but... hygiene kits? Couldn’t they just be called menstruation kits, so we don’t continue to enable idiot dudes like this guy?
