    "Tampon Tim" is a misogynistic label. Unless, of course, you can explain to us what is wrong/derogatory about tampons.

    The plain text of the statute arguably does (depends on how you apply the rules of statutory construction).

    It says:

    The products must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12.”

    The folks disagreeing that they have to be in the boys restroom are reading that bill language as if it says that the products have to be available in “restrooms regularly used by menstruating students,” but that’s not what it actually says.

    The only qualifier in its discussion of what restrooms they must be available “to all menstruating students” in is “restrooms regularly used by students” - not restrooms regularly used by menstruating students.

    Is there any Minnesota law precluding a female student from using a male bathroom ….. assuming Minnesotans are able to define what a woman/female is and requires separate bathrooms for males and females.

    Merely a continuation of the streak of denials and misdirection offered by those who purportedly support these policies, yet run and hide from them when the implementation of said policy comes to fruition. I don't know that I've seen a policy (gender ideology, in this case) generate such blatant dishonesty and misrepresentation by those who support said policy. It's almost as if they want to virtue signal all the way up to the point the rubber hits the road.

    You figure that a lot of menstruating girls are really eager to use the boys bathroom?

    We know you know this already, but yes, there are girls menstruating who believe they are boys trapped inside a girl's body who are wanting to use the boys bathroom in schools. This never happened when I was in school, but somehow it has become quite widespread a phenomena throughout the country these days. But again, we know you know this already.

    I think wording is to specify that they must be in regular student restrooms, not a situation where the teachers have to send the students to "special" restroom or a staff restroom. But your take is some pretty comical lawyer stuff.

    I know that some of you will lose your mind over this BUT girl’s teams use the boys locker room when they are the away team. In addition, in the nurse’s office there is typically one bathroom.

    What a ridiculous thing to get your panties in a twist about.

    And with hyperbole like that, you're just as extreme on your side as they are.

    (Am I doing this right?)

    Why would it even be so bad if tampons were indeed mandated in boys’ bathrooms?

    Other than being 99% useless, what is it about being in the vicinity of a tampon that is so traumatizing?

    Where do your wives keep theirs? Do you have a tampon room, or a safe room to lock yourself into it when she breaks that danger out, or what?

    At least you're not afraid to own the part about tampons being in boys restrooms, but you well know it has nothing to do with our wive's tampons. In fact, that's classic libby ad hominem, par for the course around these parts. I'd say it has to do with the idea that they're putting tampons in bathrooms with elementary school boys. On a rare occasion, you may have some female 5th graders who begin menstruating somewhat early, but the idea that a girl would already decide that she needs to be using the boys restroom by the 5th grade is only possible if said 5th grader had been groomed. If 18 to 24 year olds are "stupid" as Kamala told us they were, then how does a 10 year old biological female decide they're a boy and need to use the boys bathroom?

    I mean I guess I’ll “own” it. Although I would also suspect that were I to bring a lawsuit based on this law requiring all boys’ bathrooms be required to contain tampons based on a non-absurd reading of the law, I’d lose.

    Of course I wouldn’t bring such a suit since I don’t see how tampons contain this outrageous power you seem to assign them.

    It's not that free Tampons is the issue. It's a woketard state like Minnesota pushing woke radical progressive policies on children. In Minnesota, sex, gender, and identifying as a gender is part of the school system, encouraged and taught. It's this state involvement into an area that should be reserved for parents that is the issue. The state of Minnesota owns the power over the children, not the parents. Walz is the problem. He is the governor with the veto pen who should have stopped this from happening. He didn't because it is in his woketard belief system.

    The Free State of Florida has outlawed teaching sex and gender from K-12. Virginia had a change election electing republicans to the top offices because that state tried to do what Minnesota under Walz direction has succeeded in doing.

    On a national level, both Harris and Walz believe in the state's woketard rights over children. It is nothing that anyone who supports parental rights and children should want in the top two US executive officials. It is divisive and inflammatory.

    That Minnesota law is an interesting read for understand state sponsored socialism as well. Take a few minutes to read it from the link above. It's eye opening how far radical left Walz is and has taken Minnesota.

    I thought this thread was about Tampons. Now you are saying it's not. Putting free tampons in bathrooms is not "woke radial progressive policies". I don't really care about the rest of your opinions.
