    Are you okay with tampons in boys’ washrooms?!

    Yyyes. And it’s weird that republicans are not. They’re hygiene products, not a political statement.

        They’re really not, don’t stick anything in a penetrating wound, that’s a myth.

        My understanding is that this often causes more harm than it prevents. It’s a popular concept, and has been taught by many people, but it’s not a good idea. It makes sense that it would work, but when actually tested it isn’t. Check for yourself though.

          FWIW I’ve seen little single use packs of blood clotting powder in the camping section at both Target and Walmart recently (in the last few months) probably worth grabbing a few first aid kits.

        I don’t think Megyn even buys into her positions very much. She seems more like just another soulless ghoul like Tucker, happy to stoke the culture war for fame and wealth.

          You joke, but around when covid started I swear a fox news host announced he doesn’t wash his hands cause he doesn’t believe in germs. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if “soap is evil” became the new conspiracy

          ha, found it. It was some guy named Pete Hegseth: “My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air,” Hegseth began. “I don’t think I’ve washed my hands for 10 years. I don’t really wash my hands ever. I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can’t see them, therefore they are not real,” Hegseth added.

          I’d hope he was joking but this was on fox so who knows

      The best part about all of this is that it’s not even true. They’re not in the boys bathroom. Not by rule, and not commonly, anyway.
