I was disappointed to see the period underwear brand Modibodi having a section on their page for "trans girls" - just the sheer extortion of suggesting a biological boy buy their expensive underwear just to pretend-menstruate once a month.
And yet (happy to be corrected) I don't think there's a special page for "trans boys" - most of whom actually need period products.
They do have a men's section for "men" that mentions "period peace" in the product description, and they have an "all genders" section that doesn't have any products list (haha). Where are you seeing a section for transwomen?
And then here's some nonsense on a blog about biological males getting periods: https://www.modibodi.com/blogs/womens/transwomen-period - it has "tips" which include wearing period underwear, even though that page itself acknowledges that "some trans women don’t have uteruses" so won't bleed.
(I'd like to know what trans women do have uteruses, for what it's worth).
This is a circle to discuss and share feminist books. Share about your favorites, ask for recommendations, report on what you're reading, or start any other conversations about feminist books.

All fictional book discussion belongs in /o/Books.

I think they may have changed the pages on their site - it was on the Australian site - and I recall it being in one of the FAQs.
Google throws up this link - but the content has disappeared: https://www.modibodi.com/collections/all-gender (for "all gender" clothing)

I'm guessing some dumbass at that company has bought into the TRA lies about uterus implants for women already having been done for TIMs.
