Earlier today, The Federalist’s Sean Davis shared a piece clarifying that, despite what some of your moral and intellectual betters might contend, boys do not, in fact, have a period.

But ThinkProgress’ LGBT editor Zack Ford disagrees:
.@seanmdav I'm pretty sure some men DO menstruate. And get pregnant.
Y'all just reject that they're men.

People who menstruate are called "women."

no sorry. Biologically, those are women. Maybe a man in their head, but if you can get pregnant you're a woman.

Last time we checked, yeah.
Audacity of saying this to an actual woman who carried, birthed, and nurtured a baby:

there are a lot of Dads out there trying to figure out what they did wrong. @ToniMZ81

And trying to figure out how we got here.
BIOLOGY – HOW DOES IT WORK? Good lord. @seanmdav

“Science” is evidently subjective now.
Well, he did say "pretty sure" and the word is "MENstruate"… so, yeah, the science is settled.

Ah, OK.
If gender is that fluid and self-defining, why even bother retaining the distinction? Just for variety? @seanmdav
— Jeryl Bier (@JerylBier) May 19, 2016
Well, variety is the spice of life …
All the same, if Zack wants to be taken seriously, he should probably put his money where his mouth is.
Are you currently menstruating?
— Mike Bullard (@bullimusmaximus) May 19, 2016
Ok. I challenge you to menstruate and get pregnant. https://t.co/iodhda1xw6

Get to it, Zack. Your biological clock is ticking.
