Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Any woman-identified person under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is welcome.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.

I am genuinely not sure if this is viral marketing for The Last of Us or not.
🤷 Didn't they have a whole scene in the first season where Ellie was trying to discretely get a box of tampons in a store Joel stashed stuff in? And uhh, things got out of hand? I could be misremembering.
That said, if it doesn't bring anything to the story, why bother with it? You rarely see people go to the bathroom in movies/shows regardless of the setting.
Just rewatched that episode. She goes into the cellar of a convenience store and finds a trapped zombie and cuts into its skin, then comes out with a box of tampons. Nothing really too crazy happens even though they make you think it will.
The scene is pretty much 1 to 1 with the game though.
Does have to add to the story/Plot, could be for flavor plus its a TV show so no issue of limited runtime or a chore to get through like a book
