Ebbie BS: Young Men and the Menstrual Phenomenon (23) BS: Young Men and the Menstrual Phenomenon 19 Oct 16


I got a good laugh out of this story: A student in London, England, is having a teaching moment lashing out at women and girls' inability to control their menstrual cycles. He is incensed at the idea that women can't hold in the problem until they can get to a toilet. He points out that he doesn't go around peeing in inappropriate places and if the female sex is too "lazy" to use the same self-control... well, then.

The story begins thus:

"Most young men don't get much in the way of education about periods. (Photo: Getty Images)

"It sounds like someone in the younger demographic needs a serious lesson in the female anatomy.

"Ryan Williams, whose bio calls him a politician and youth adults spokesperson from London, took to Twitter over the past 48 hours to offer his opinion about the call to end the tampon tax. And he's absolutely against it … because he feels that women should learn to control their menstrual cycle. He even created the hashtags #SelfControl and #StopTheBlob to publicize his case."

It's all about Self-Control
