He's just a performer. I'm convinced now.

I think he originally intended it as a mild joke. He looked like he modelled himself on Dick Emery’s Mandy and other old school camp comedy. I think if it’s true, he’d be way too terrified to come out now though.

What bothers me is his certainty that he can tell a woman how to do her period right.

“Oh, you silly girl--left home with no tampon? Let Dylan save you! <smirk>"

He’s an actor, gotta have a gimmick!

Tampax in a T-pot. 🤣 Haven’t watched it yet, just had to applaud that descriptor. Edit: What a disgusting display of misogyny. 😡 Thanks for mentioning other options for menstrual products. I have The Keeper and flannel reusable pantyliners that have a pocket for the reusable flannel pads. I’ll take this opportunity to say that I bought them from Glad Rags a few years ago and since I recently turned 51, probably won’t need another supply, but would like to recommend that others not buy from this company, as they started using the dehumanizing language a couple of years ago. I noticed it in their newsletters and emailed them 2-3 times about it, and then received a completely condescending and emotionally manipulative response from them. Perhaps you know of a menstrual products company that doesn’t dehumanize women? I’ll pass their name along if anyone shares one with me. Thanks again!

First he said he was enjoying himself, then he implied he could barely get up to face the day? Which is it? So he can face the day if we allow him to enjoy womanhood? Don't worry: soon transphobia won't be allowed online 😉

Someone help me out with the Tampax tweet. I don’t get it.

"My only agenda... " is to make $$$ off this girlhood act. This clown is a misogynistic troll, and he somehow thinks his mansplaining is excused by his "transness". Oh - and did I hear him right? God made a mistake by placing him in a mans body? Seriously dude - SHE has better things to attend to, and SHE doesn't make those kind of mistakes. Excellent video.

What a freekin' freak.

"Enjoying womanhood" must be the talking point du jour - I just saw the exact same phrase for the first time in a Tumblr post a mere hour ago, that post was saying that so-called t3rfs think that "womanhood" is only suffering and pain and it upsets them(us) seeing others enjoying theirs. Add that one to the TRA bingo card, I guess.

And yeah, his whole shtick has seemed like trolling to me since the first time I saw one of his posts (I think it was the frolicking in the park ("hiking") in heels).

Did Proctor & Gamble actually send him some tampax so he would hand them out, thus

advertising the product? I've heard corporations sometimes hire young folks to just hang out with their friends and casually mention a great new movie, or new music cd, or a drink, or a food product. They get paid to do this, either with the product they are promoting, or maybe small amounts of $. I can imagine they do this with social media "influencers" too, and since transfolx are a big thing right now, bingo. But he's creepy, even if it's campy; I would not accept a tampon from that man.

Every woman that carries a purse knows that everything in it has a current or recent purpose. I am a post menopausal woman and I sure as hell don’t carry around tampons, waiting in bathrooms for women to ask me for one. Shame on Tampax for pouncing on this obvious marketing opportunity that targets young women. Dylan = TikTok famous = another marketing channel for Tampax. Guess what Dylan? Not everyone is going to like you. Get over it.

Also, I wish I had known about menstrual cups (or maybe they hadn’t been invented, yet) when I was younger. Some public spaces are getting with the times and having feminine hygiene products as readily available as toilet paper and paper towels. If my boyfriend had tampons already at his place that I had not personally brought there myself, I wouldn’t think he was a nice, considerate guy. I’d be wondering either: “is he a perv?” Or “which of his exes left the tampons here and why are they still here?” I refuse to indulge in Dylan’s fantasies.

Beware of abusers and con artists who started using "we" language to try and force responses from you. They are trying to see what works to control you.

I don't gush at brunches about anything. Have not been to a brunch in years. This clown thinks the Sex and the City characters are real? But wasn't that series run by a gay man? Hmmm?

I truly believed he was taking the piss up until the Biden meeting.

He could have been the ultimate troll, but you’re right, just another nice guy who sees women as vending machines or worse.
