Ending period poverty is one of my passions. I talk about it all the time -- both to raise awareness and normalize the topic for men. Doesn't embarrass me, shouldn't embarrass you.

But beyond the stupidity of mocking someone for making sure people who menstruate have access to essential products: If that's the best they've got to attack Tim Walz, it's sure as hell admitting they ain't got much.

And I have to tell you -- I've never had a conservative tell me it's wrong to give period products to those whose lives are disrupted because they can't afford them. I doubt they'll get much genuine outrage-traction on that.

Something cool you can do is create period kits for distribution through organizations that work with underserved communities.

Or find an organization that needs contributions or volunteer hours to create these kits :)

Circling back to the absurdity of this. Kids who can’t afford period products miss school every single month. They’re not just robbed of dignity and independence—they’re robbed of an education.

No normal person thinks ‘Tampon Tim’ is an insult. It’s a compliment. Just call me Maxipad Mats.

@Holberg Thanks for the laugh, Maxipad Mats! Strange that some people think doing something beneficial for others or showing happy emotions could make an insult.
