today’s example of why modern Conservatives are weird people
“Tampon Tim is hands down the best political nickname ever,” tweeted conservative commentator Liz Wheeler. “It’s so… savagely effective. In one word tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about Tim Walz’s dangerous radicalism.”
The moniker refers to a law that Walz, the governor of Minnesota, signed last year, requiring public schools to provide menstrual products — including pads and tampons — to students in 4th through 12th grades.
Tim Walz’s dangerous radical agenda of…providing menstrual products to adolescent kids that might need them. lolol
Can we just rename Tampons for them, to “Jesus Sticks”, and when they have to have an uncomfortable conversation, they can just pull one out and say “You need Jesus”? Or when asking someone for one, someone can proudly proclaim “I need Jesus” to their friends.
I’ve gotten the seriousness out in other comments; I just had the thought, and had to share it somehow, somewhere.
They’ve done a good job making menstruation ‘yucky’; the majority of women I know have at some point apologized to me after periods come up in group or private conversations. It’s just a period, nothing to be ashamed of.
