Okay, I am super sensitive to people’s feelings, but menstruation is a trigger and we are not supposed to talk about it? I am sorry, that’s ridiculous. It is something that women have to deal with as a part of existence, there is no way in the world we should have to be silent about it. If someone who is trans is upset that they don’t have it, I am sorry they feel that way, but that is not a reason for me to talk about reality.
trigger warning for menstruation, cissexism

Menstruation, pictures of and discussions about, can be triggering to some people, so if you are talking about it, it’s good to provide a trigger warning so that folks can skip past it. You can talk about menstruation all you want. People can submit posts that include period talk if they really want, and I would advise them to use a TW. If they don’t, I’ll add one anyway, because hey guess what this is fuckyeahfatpositive not fuckyeahCISfatpositive.
Not all women menstruate! Not all people who menstruate are women! You don’t have to be silent about menstruation! But I recommend not being a douche about people’s triggers!
I don’t know of trans* people who feel dysphoric because they don’t menstruate. However, the reason I put TWs on period-related posts is because many trans* people who menstruate who do not ID as women feel super uncomfortable with it.
You are not ~super sensitive~ and you are clearly not sorry.
gurl, bye.
I know trans women who are triggered by menstruation talk because it’s a dysphoria point for them. Menstruation can be a trigger for people with some health problems too… There really is no good reason NOT to use trigger warnings on this stuff. OP is just being selfish.
