Obviously, they don't realize what happens to men working on a hot summer day after a night of drinking. I have made a manpon or two in my day. Anything is better that the treachery or swamp ass gone bad.

I wouldn't call that ad transphobic. Phobic implies fear and there wasn't any fear there, just mockery. Trans-folks, much like any other outrage-prone group, needs to lighten up.

So basically this girl in the ad wins a "femme-off" by whipping a tampon out of her purse? That ad offended me on a different level than "transphobia".

Non-issue.
From the caricatured depiction, I'd say that person is supposed to be a drag queen, not a transgender woman.
And anyway, what was going to happen? Was she going to insert the tampon at the sinks? There's nothing to stop anyone from carrying around a few tampons in their bag.

Liberturd tard PC strikes again! As far as trannies using women's restrooms just have them arrested just like any other sick freak caught hanging out in there. Unfortunately they're more likely to be cruising the men's rooms like George Michaels in a park pit stop.

Well how would YOU win the "femme-off" scenario ? Can't exactly spontaneously gestate a fetus now can you. Whip out a titty and shoot some milk in his eye ? Trust me, out of all the ways this could end flashing the cotton pony at him is the least horrific.

There's been a fair number of articles about transgendered people getting in a huff about something lately.
Why are trans folks so testi?

My worry is that he could've been following some kind of crazy new fad. Perhaps the children are all shoving tampons up their ass because they've seen the Backstreet Boys doing it on TV or something.

Transphobia? That's a word now? It's a ridiculous one, as it implies fear when most people feel pity and disgust. These people are mentally ill in a way that causes them to seek out horrifying mutilations, and honestly it's just sad. You don't want to be discriminated against by employers or beaten up by rednecks and assorted other scumbags? Okay, I'm fine with that, but that does not mean you have made a reasonable lifestyle choice and people should act like it's all okay. Call me a transphobe if you want, I really don't care.

They must have watched a different commercial than the one I did. I saw a girl minding her own business at the mirror when a tranny walked in and tried to out-fem her, girl pwned the tranny by whipping out a tampon. Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'.

Now now, its not a mental illness so much as being physically brain defective. If we could fix these people's brains to agree with the gender they were born with, I'm sure most would leap at the chance to be "normal".

My vagina has two sets of lips
But I don't get monthly blood drips
My vagina hardly even used
My vagina's got lots of extra skin
They took my outtie and made it an in
Changing Donnie to Marie Osmond
Operation successfull
But now I gotta pee
Through a miniature hole
Gotta remember to put the seat down
And when I wipe my ass
I go from front to back
Cause I don't want a bladder infection
I never thought I'd miss my vas deferans
I traded it in for a pair of huge cans
Now I get to hang with lesbians
Operation paid up front
Now I show all my friends
My new designer coont
They think I'm kinda weird
But that's OK with me
Cause now I kick their ass
Playing from the ladies tee
Theres nothing finer than having a vagina

Transphobia, sometimes also referred to as chazophobia, is often confused with a fear of transportation. Perhaps that was the case here.
