Students cover themselves in fake menstrual blood to advocate free menstrual products on campus

Those students sure sounded angry! They had blood coming out of their eyes and ears and wherever…

College Fix;

It was a ‘bleed-in’

A group of student-activists at the University of Florida painted their pants in fake blood to simulate menstrual flow earlier this week in order to protest the lack of free menstrual products on the school’s campus.

Calling it a “bleed-in,” about two dozen students participated in the faux-menses demonstration on campus, according to The Independent Florida Gator.

“If you’re disgusted with our bloody pants, then maybe you should rethink whether or not this is important for everybody or if everybody would use it,” 30-year-old student Jenny Boylan said, according to The Gator. “I think you all collectively benefit from me not bleeding in your seat.”

The protest comes after the university’s student government voted against a proposition to provide free menstrual products to women on campus.  read more

  1. I absolutely think the university should provide “Free” menstrual products. And…when they send every student their tuition statement, add on $50 or whatever for “menstrual products”. Because that is how it works.

  2. Professional students. 30year old students never plan to get jobs, just keep going from college to college somehow getting their tuition paid. I used to know one of those people. She knew every gubmint/state program and how to use them to their fullest.

  3. Jeez! Are the little girls going to pay for the rest of us to get a free lifetime supply of the drug or vacation of our choice, because we have to deal with their PMS?

    It’s always PMS time somewhere….

  4. Why should they be entitled to free minstrel products?

    If they want to put on one of those shows, I think they should have to pay for their own blackface makeup and white gloves!

    Oh, wait —

    I’m really getting sick of the brainless drivel coming out of universities. It’s time to cut waaaaaaaaaaay back on government support, student loans.

    Hey, hold on now! These universities and students should get every education dollar authorized by the Constitution of the United States.

  6. This is what happens when an entire generation’s only communication skills are developed using their thumbs and an occasional forefinger. Everything is conveyed in a living graphic novel.

  7. Why are so many in favor of making themselves dependents rather than in favor of freedom and independence?

    I loathe parasites who think other people own them anything they want.
