Minnesota state representative Sandra Feist introduced H.F. 44, which would require “school districts to provide access to menstrual products for students.” Strangely, though, Feist doesn’t consider this an issue that only affects females:

Not all students who menstruate are female. We need to make sure that all students have access to these products. There are obviously less non-female menstruating students and therefore their usage will be much lower. And that was actually calculated into the cost of this. We do not expect that the non-female menstruating students will use these products as much as the students using female bathrooms but it’s important to have them there. [Emphasis added.]

Feist concedes that there is “obviously less” demand for menstruating products in the men’s restrooms. And obviously, this is because men do not menstruate, though women who identify as men still do. Feist’s way of getting around this inconvenient reminder of biology is to abolish male and female bathrooms altogether: “There are a lot of schools that are moving toward gender-neutral bathrooms and if we add female, we might become obsolete very quickly.”

How very feminist of her.
