Actual or pseudo
When universities lose their tiny little minds.
A Scottish university has issued guidance stating that it is “not just women” who menstruate and experience the menopause.
Oh has it now. Any other jokes? It is not just men who experience testicular cancer?
The advice from the University of Strathclyde states that “trans men and women” may have “actual or pseudo menopause symptoms”. It adds that non-binary and intersex people can also be affected. It reiterates this guidance for menstruation, stating again that it is “not only women” who have periods.
So an actual university doesn’t know the difference between people claiming something and the reality of that something. An actual university thinks that saying=absolute unquestionable truth – at least, it does when the special people are the ones doing the saying. Those people are never women of course.
How did they get there? How did they manage to convince themselves that it’s a good idea to nod along when a pack of loonies decide that everything we know about human sex is wrong?
Documents obtained from the university, which is in Glasgow, state that the guidance is “part of a series which outlines support for students at the University of Strathclyde, with a particular focus on promoting equality of opportunity and preventing discrimination irrespective of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, care experience or socio-economic background”.
And yet the “guidance” itself is a punch in the face to women, so the university is not preventing discrimination irrespective of sex. The university is in fact engaging in discrimination against one of the two sexes there are.

So, this whole “non-binary” thing still makes no sense to me. There’s no claim that they were born in the wrong body, so why wouldn’t some of them experience menopause, like the ones that are physically on the female side of the binary. Emma Corrin, who states she is non-binary while my straightdar recognizes otherwise, will surely experience menopause despite walking the razor’s edge between masculinity and femininity. Most likely sooner than she expects.
There’s a reason it makes no sense to you. It’s the same reason it makes no sense to me.
drumroll……
It makes no sense.
