They really need to start pushing health and maybe anatomical science harder in schools. This is just outrageous. A Transman, with the twitter handle Lilo The Autistic Queer, is demanding Fitbit be more inclusive. Lilo claims that Fitbit needs to make their menstrual health program more gender-neutral, as she is offended that despite socially identifying as male, she still has to identify as female in order to access the menstrual cycle program. It seems Fitbit is under the belief that only females menstruate, who would have thought…
In a series of tweets, Lilo goes documents her attack on the Fitbit’s reasonable stance.
“Hey @FitbitSupport I love the “Female Health” tracker in your app. However, I’m not female & I menstruate. Many trans & intersex people are in this position and feel alienated from menstrual health access. Could you please change the name to the neutral term “Menstrual Health”?”
“If people could retweet this to try to get @fitbit to see it, that would be helpful. It’s a tiny change they could make that will make a huge difference to a lot of people. I don’t want to have to misgender myself and my body in order to access menstrual health tools.”
She even went as far as to take a photo of the “offensive” gender labeling.

“Not everyone who menstruates is female. Not everyone who is female menstruates. Let’s shift our language.”
Fitbit responded a few times to Lilo and eventually turned her down, proving they still have a backbone despite the overbearing PC culture.
“We apologize for the confusion. We encourage you to place your ideas in our community so other users can vote for this. Just go to: community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Sug so developers could take this into consideration. We appreciate your time with this and we hope to see you there.”
“Hi. Sorry to hear this. By default, female health tracking is hidden for users who have identified themselves as male in their Fitbit profile. We’ll take note of your feedback as we strive to improve the quality of our products and services.”
“Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. This feature is currently not in our product roadmap. However, we’re always looking to enhance the Fitbit experience for our users. Let us know if you have further questions.”
Lilo the autistic queer was, of course, angered that they would not bend to her will and tried to publically shame them.
“Fitbit seems to be reasserting that they do not believe men can have periods.”
Good on them for not buckling to this ludicrous notion. Females menstruate, that is just part of life. There is no reason that they should have to conform to a socially constructed gender.
Real men, that is, A PERSON BORN A MALE, do NOT have a monthly periods. The internal plumbing does not change just because some idiot wants to dress up like a girl/woman. Just because you chop down the tree and split the stump, you are still a born male.
biological gender based almost wholly on two chromosomal pairings: xy & xx
this next may seem a bit dry and perhaps even anathemic to social-construct feminine genders, but here goes…
The XY sex-determination system is the sex-determination system found in humans, most other mammals, some insects (Drosophila), some snakes, some fish (guppies), and some plants (Ginkgo). In this system, the sex of an individual is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes. Females typically have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (XX), and are called the homogametic sex. Males typically have two different kinds of sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex.
In humans, the presence of the Y chromosome is responsible for triggering male development; in the absence of the Y chromosome, the fetus will undergo female development. More specifically, it is the SRY gene located on the Y chromosome that is of importance to male differentiation. Variations to the sex gene karyotype could include rare disorders such as XX males (often due to translocation of the SRY gene to the X chromosome) or XY gonadal dysgenesis in people who are externally female (due to mutations in the SRY gene). In addition, other rare genetic variations such as Turners (XO) and Klinefelters (XXY) are seen as well.
so… gender-benders would have us believe that non-standard identification accounts for upwards of 3% of our population; however the variants listed above each constitute less than 1/20th percent{added together would still be well under 1%)
all of it, as much a fakery and assault on real genetic science as “climate change” is to true meteorology and climate science
so… if your wounded psyche wants the world to perceive you as something other than the genetically, chromosomally determined sex you were upon becoming a human zygote; its on you, not the world
Lilo the Autistic Queer is nothing more than one very self-deluded, possibly deranged male
“she” experiences menses? fine, let “her” give birth to a child from “her” womb…
‘nufsed’
Just because your particular form of insanity has you thinking you are a man does NOT make it a biological truth! If you decided to identify as a cockroach (which kind of fits, really) that would still not make you an actual cockroach. Only a nut case with a delusion! Give it a rest and seek help for your condition!
Another gender confused thinks everyone should bend to their way of thinking. They need mental health intervention since insanity and gender identity are mental issues.
It is biologically impossible for men to have periods they do not have the right equipment. It has to a women who thinks she is a man. No matter what you think you are you cannot change your biology even if you mutilate yourself with transgender surgery. Your sex chromosomes are in every cell: that is why men who think they are women will always win in women’s sports.
“Fitbit seems to be reasserting that they do not believe men can have periods.”
WHAT?!?!!? How dare they be logical!!! I’m offended.
Flat-earthers and transgenders — two of a kind …
The boy be a mental retard.
I know what you mean. However, SHE may be a mental retard but SHE is not a boy.
all I can say is hahahahahahahahah, you can’t make this crap up. If you’ve got the plumbing to menstruate, you’re a female. If not, you’re a male. It’s pretty straight forward to most of the country, just not the 1 – 3% who are strange. Look, I don’t care about what you are, or claim to be, just keep it to yourself and don’t shove it down our throats.
oh, this … attitude and perspective, though they have a protected right to express it, just makes me want to upchuck.
Fitbit should just right a dear john letter, return our device and Fitbit will give you your $50 back, Fitbit isn’t for you sorry. Best in your future endeavors.
Proof LGBTQF are mentally ill.
To Lilo The Autistic Queer, FYI, a male does not have a uterus and ovaries. Thus, a male cannot menstruate. Despite what you call yourself and how you feel, you never were, are not now and never will be a male. At best, you will simply be a disfigured female. At worst, it is likely that you will be a freak, not of nature, but of mankind.
