‘Menstrual Dignity Act’ forces Oregon schools to provide menstrual products in boys’ restrooms

All Oregon public schools will now be forced to provide menstrual products in K-12 bathrooms, regardless of gender, along with instructions on “how to use” the feminine hygiene products thanks to the woke “Menstrual Dignity Act” signed into law last year by Governor Kate Brown.

The act was set to go into full effect during the 2022-2023 school year.

According to the law, “All education providers shall install in every bathroom at least one dispenser that does not require coins or money” and “is clearly marked as free in at least two languages.”

“Starting next year (2022-2023), products will be available in all restrooms (male, female and all-gender) in every PPS building where education occurs,” a statement from Portland Public Schools read.

“To ensure timely compliance, PPS ordered 500 dispensers. Dispensers have been installed in all elementary and middle school girls’ restrooms, and more will be installed in all remaining bathrooms, including boys’ restrooms, next year. Instructions on how to use tampons and pads will be posted in all bathrooms,” the statement added.

In tandem with that move, students are being taught in physical education classes about “the four pillars of Menstrual Dignity.” Parents are being advised to have similar discussions with their children in order to lessen the “shame and stigma” surrounding menstruation.

The Oregon Department of Education also issued a “Menstrual Dignity for Students” toolkit in March.

According to Fox News, it comes “complete with instructions on how to use menstrual products, segments on faculty and staff training, classroom instruction and tips for ‘menstruation-positive’ language for families.”

The kit also states that it is necessary to have the products in all bathrooms because a lack of accessibility disproportionately impacts “students of color, students experiencing disabilities, and students experiencing poverty.”

“Importantly, [the Menstrual Dignity Act] affirms the right to menstrual dignity for transgender, intersex, nonbinary, and two-spirit students by addressing the challenges that some students have managing menstruation while minimizing negative attention that could put them at risk of harm and navigating experiences of gender dysphoria during menstruation,” the kit introduction reportedly states.

“Research also connects gender-affirming bathroom access to supporting student safety at school,” it goes on to claim.

Gubernatorial candidate Bridget Barton was incensed over the bill being enacted and blasted Brown over the woke policy. She also slammed the liberal Democrat over her stance on abortion, according to Fox News Digital.

“Radical leftist woke policies are destroying Oregon from our streets to our businesses to our schools. But as a mom, a new grandmother, and a Republican candidate for Oregon governor, I can’t believe we’re even discussing this — America’s most unpopular governor, Kate Brown, is putting free tampons in the boy’s bathrooms of Oregon’s elementary schools,” Barton railed.

“Clearly Brown cares more about what’s going on in the bathrooms than what’s going on in the classrooms,” she added.

Oregon’s students reportedly rank 46th in the nation in reading and math. Barton contends that those poor scores are due to Brown removing allegedly “racist” academic requirements.

“We’re at the bottom of the barrel and the career politicians spend our taxpayer money on tampons for little boys,” she said. “I’m respectful of all, but it’s fair to let little boys be little boys, and little girls be little girls. Instead, leftist education bureaucrats are pushing this radical nonsense, spending precious class time coming between Oregon parents and their kids, creating activist factories instead of strong community schools.”

“Oregon’s kids deserve so much better from their schools; right now Oregon’s public schools don’t deserve our kids,” Barton bitterly remarked.

The candidate asserts that she is running for office to improve education in Oregon and to “put a stop” to leftist policies.

After the act became law, the Family Research Council tweeted, “Thanks to the Menstrual Dignity Act that just passed in Oregon, local taxpayers are now on the hook for thousands of new tampon dispensers in boys bathrooms.”

  1. I wonder what the dispensers will look like after the teenage boys have fun playing with them. I guess the tampons will be used for female males who can’t go into the girls rest room for their tampons? Or is it for menstruating boys? Are we to believe that boys are menstruating? OH! I get it.

  2. I don’t get it.Just “what” are BOYS supposed to “DO” with tampons?Females insert them into the vagina to contain menstrual flow from monthly periods. WHY do males need tampons? Diarrhea? THE “runs”?WHERE do “they” put it? ANUS?

  3. So the kids can play with them and flush them down the toilet. Just a waste of taxpayers money. Just saying

  4. PANDERING TO THE FREAKS OF NATURE FOR VOTES IS AN ODUMBO STRADEGY THAT HELPED PUT MR TRUMP INTO OUR WH AND I PREDICT THE SAME IN 22 AND 24 TOO !! THE SILENT MAJORITY WILL CRUSH THESE LIBTURD-IDJETS BIGLY YET AGAIN ! F.J.B. AND PHUCKOBAMA MORE !

  5. I, for one, am interested to see what clever uses high school boys come up with for these products. Just wait for it.

  6. It is time to re-think our complete educational system. Thanks to the left wing nuts we can no longer permit these idiots to have anything to do with young people. The day will come when all brick and mortar establishments will become extinct and all teaching will be done online where it can be monitored by sensible people.

  7. Bi-sexual and gay men and other categories sexual preference will be able to prime themselves for a quicky with TAMPONS for their booties!! WO!

  8. I couldn’t even finish reading this article. WHAT is wrong with the “adults”?? Good grief people. How in the heck did any of us manage to grow up and deal with things that USED to be a private matter without these sick “officials” (cough) intruding on absolutely everything going on with our children?? Stay OUT of our schools and stop making these absurd rules that FORCE compliance!! We are slowly sliding into lunacy and the grip on reality is slipping.

  9. Well if your going to let the biological girls use the biological boys restroom that would only make sense.

    The time has come when even public education has started ignoring what they claim to uphold as true. Science.

  10. The free machines will empty quickly and the plumbing problem costs will increase by over 10 times by this stupid mess

  11. Oregon has some beautiful views, waterfalls, the ocean, starkly beautiful basalt columns, and some of the dumbest people on Earth!!!!! Stupidity runs rampant in that state in the liberal idiot population.

    1. Or society for that matter. Yet they’re influencing our children. Just saying

  12. Biology 101: The only humans that menstruate and give birth are the ones with a uterus and a vagina. They don’t teach that anymore.

  13. And this is why I have given up on the Democratic party(which I registered into almost 38 years ago. I hope every other moderate does the same and leaves these idiots to their own fantasy world.

  14. This is the insanity of the left, Oregon and that deranged Democrat woman governor they have. She is not fit for office.

  15. Just where in the hell are the little boys supposed to stick the tampex.
    It is so very hard for me to believe that this is our America. If we do not exterminate every demoncrat on earth we will have tampons sticking out of every orifice in our bodies.
    It’s taken less than two years for the worthless, feckless, lunatic, idiot President wanna be to bring our America to this, imagine two more years!!!!!!!

  16. I am so glad my parents are dead so they don’t have to see this crap that is happening. I’m sure my dad would be saying “I didn’t fight the Nazis so that we could have a Menstrual Dignity Act.” I’m sure of that.

  17. THIS IS HILARIOUS!!!! What is a k-6 BOY going to do with any of these things?!?!? I understand that there’s been college young men that have already had a LOT of fun with all this crap! I do feel sorry for the young LADIES in that their dignaty & privacy is being torn from them, literally thrown in their face and made fun of, in that the “adults” that are supposed to be protecting them & educating them are adding to their “growing pains”. I sure hope that Oregon Parents open their eyes SOON and ger=t rid of these clowns! Oregon’s a beautiful state, but surely couldn’t be paid enough to LIVE there! Or even be there very long…

    1. Right!!???? The first thing that came to mind is all the nasty ammunition you’re handing young boys to embarrass and harass girls during a very confusing, embarrassing, challenging time in their lives!! I’m not boy bashing I just a realist and nothing you teach them will change that! I’m 57 years old and found Health/PE/Sex Ed came at the perfect time (middle school). The BASICS, everything else was left up to our parents and friends 🫣 LOL. Got a LOT from books, TV and movies too. That’s normal dammit. This isn’t, gender dysphoria isn’t. Train and equip our school counselors to assist in directing children to their parents not away from them.

  18. The democRAT party is comprised of a bunch of stupid, disgusting f’ing deviants!

    They need to be wiped off the face of the earth. The world is infinitely better without them in it.

  19. Since boys can’t possibly have any personal use for tampons, there shouldn’t be any hurt feelings when boys fill their backpacks with them and take them home to Mom, right?

  20. Oregon taxpayers you’re paying these people to be completely stupid. As if your state doesn’t have real problems to solve.

  21. I believe in science. Boys don’t menstruate. Therefore, there’s no need for menstruation products in a boys’ bathroom. These people are insane. Literally.
