    I've had nightmares like this - waking up in a strange place with people talking like they've had a stroke.

    Damn. You. All.

    I'm impressed you guys kept that going for so many pages.

    Pretty mild stuff actually. My daughter just sent a pic of the Student Union election paraphernalia.
    She is amused, and a little scared, by the old school commie politics at Melbourne Uni.

    LOL. Lord Vivec uses tampons.

    I don't have a problem with a business responding to their feelings of what's best for business. What I have a problem with is when the government tries to pretend that there is no difference between men and women and put tampons in the men's room.

    It's as stupid as segregating black people from white people. Yet colleges are doing it again and none of you seem to have a problem with that either.

    It's stupid.

    Tampons in the restroom = Segregation. You heard it here first.

    They should put stand up urinals in women's bathrooms just in case a guy has to go and the men's room is full.

    I really don't care to tell you the truth, but if I ever walked into a bathroom and saw a tampon machine I would probably do a double take and walk back out to make sure I didn't walk into the ladies room by mistake.

    Apparently.

    FWIW, I could not care less if an institution put a urinal in the women's room. I got over my "ZOMG PENISES ARE SCARY!!!!" stage about 30 years ago.

    If there are men living in her house, I'm sure they urinate regularly.

    Would you be complaining about a six-year-old boy going into the women's restroom with his mother?

    when the men in her house are urinating I'm pretty sure the girl would not be in the bathroom with them.

    Yeah. Six is a little old for that. My 3 year old granddaughter doesn't accompany me to the restroom at home. But I've taken her into the men's room when we are out when she was a bit younger. She's old enough now to go by herself while I watch the door from the hall.

    Anakinfan, you must hate gymnastics, talk about gender roles, It's the only sport I can think of that is different for men and women who want to compete in that sport. Women can't do pommel horse or rings? Men can't do uneven bars and the balance beam?

    Not really a fan of gymnastics for either gender, it just is not interesting to me, but not sure what that has colleges "indoctrinating" people.

    True, but it is still played the same way for both sexes.

    You do realize that "the history of mankind" encompasses far more than your own personal experiences, right? The argument that "because **I** haven't experienced it, it doesn't exist" is troublesome to say the least.

    I just want to mention that 99.9% of tampon machines I've ever seen have been out of order or indefinitely empty, so even if y'all had to deal with the nightmare of a tampon machine in your men's rooms, you still wouldn't have to deal with ACTUAL tampons. I hope that's some comfort.

    The danger of men spontaneously menstruating is somewhat mitigated.
