Sanitary product brand Always to remove feminine logo to be more inclusive to trans people
Earlier in the year, transgender campaigner Ben Saunders asked sanitary product brand Always why they include feminine logos in their packaging. At the time, another activist who goes by Melly Bloom on Twitter made the same complaint asking why it was 'imperative' to have the Venus sign on their products.
Both feel that the company, owned by Proctor & Gamble, exclude transgender and non-binary people who use the items. Since both complaints were made, Always has said it will now aim to remove the signs from their packaging from December 2019, with aims to have it distributed everywhere by February 2020.
Melly's tweet to the brand read: 'Could someone from Always tell me why it is imperative to have the female symbol on their sanitary products? 'There are non-binary and trans folks who still need to use your products too you know!'
In response to the tweet from July, the North American Customer Care Team wrote: 'At Always, we care about the needs and preferences of our customers,' urging Melly to get in touch. And now, they've written back to Ben saying they have taken on the advice and will be making changes. A delighted Melly has shared the letter sent to Ben on her Twitter.

This is just the start. Trans are going to be the third gender. U can't see that?
If you get a period...you are a fucking woman. These people are sick in the head.

that has to be a slap in the face though
walking around giving a "yea my nigga was hood. yup im all man!" tea
but having to tuck that 'pon up ur vagina when all is said and done every month :unsure:
the removal of the symbol mess will lessen the blow. its actually really understandable
you gotta be really fucking basic to be phased by a damn venus symbol on some packaging :disgusted:

And they are talking about pads not tampons, which could be a more popular choice
Metro.co.uk contacted Proctor & Gamble who said: 'For over 35 years Always has championed girls and women, and we will continue to do so. 'We're also committed to diversity and inclusion, and after hearing from many people across genders and age groups, we realised that not everyone who has a period and needs to use a pad identifies as female. 'To ensure that anyone who needs to use a period product feels comfortable in doing so with Always, we updated our pad wrapper design. 'Our mission remains to ensure no girl loses confidence at puberty because of her gender or period and we do this through our puberty education programs, by providing access to period products with programs such as #EndPeriodPoverty, and by using our brand voice to tackle societal barriers and stigmas like we did with #LikeAGirl
I think I honestly hate Trans people

Um trans women dont have periods why wojld they wear tampons
Ugh
First of all this is about pads, so I don't know what all these jokes about changing tampons is. A lot of people who are going to transition hate their bodies and wont let anything inside them.
It is so simple anatomy vs the mind and the gender you identify with. When your period starts at 11 you can't transition like that. Even if you start with hormones people still have their period (often light). Some people don't have money for the process, are too ashamed or live in a country where this is not even allowed. So when you feel like a boy and your vagina keeps screaming every month that you are a girl it is horrible. Men don't even know how it feels to be on a period (the cramps, the hormones, shame sometimes when you have to go to a bathroom, cancel things like sports/swimming).
So during a period people who already are sensitive can become even more sensitive and anxious. Walking to the 'female hygiene' section in a supermarket and buying a product (waiting in line at the cashier) are difficult when you don't want the world to know you are born in the body of a woman. It is a real problem, so just take away the logos and the stigma.
