Trans women discuss menstruation. They would discuss trans period pride event and discuss menstrual equity. They will given free period underware. But according with the New York Post, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu’s Office of LGBTQ+ Advancement is facing backlash online after promoting a “Trans Period Pride” event at a public library centered on “menstrual equity” and transgender experiences with menstruation.
A Tuesday post featuring a graphic with a pink tampon and blue menstrual pad read, “Join MASS NOW and the MA Trans Political Coalition for a consciousness-raising discussion on menstrual equity and the experiences of trans menstruators.”
The free event will be held in June at the Boston Public Library’s Copley Branch.
The event, which includes a catered dinner and “free period underwear provided to all attendees,” is supported by the Mayor’s Office of LGBTQ Advancement, the Boston Alliance of LGBTQ+ Youth (BAGLY), MASS NOW and the Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition.
On its website, the Mayor’s Office of LGBTQ Advancement says it “develops policies, community-oriented programming, and provides resources for the City’s diverse LGBTQIA2S+ community.”
