An emergency room nurse from TriHealth hospital in Cincinatti, Ohio has been suspended from her job after having a transphobic, homophobic meltdown on Facebook over tampons.
Cindy Carter took to Facebook last week to voice her outrage over Procter & Gamble going gender neutral by removing the female “Venus” symbol from its packaging on its ‘Always’ menstrual products.
““F*ck ‘Always.’ This country has gone to complete sh*t,” Carter raged. “Women have periods, men don’t.”
“Why do certain applications ask for LEGAL SEX … you’re either male or female. There’s no f*cking in between. Jesus people – get your heads on straight. Grab a mirror – it’s easy. You either have a d*ck or you don’t.”
She continued, “I swear, these f*cking c*ck sucking homos think that they deserve everything. And the confused woman are just as bad. Men need to be men. Women need to be women. Stop the stupid ass ‘man buns’ and man you buns up to do some hard labor.”
When gay city councilman Chris Seelbach saw the rant, he took a screenshot and shared it on Facebook, along with the caption: “Cindy Carter is a nurse at TriHealth. As an LGBTQ+ person, I don’t feel comfortable using TriHealth’s services until I know a person who thinks I’m a ‘fucking cock sucking homo’ would ever treat me. Until TriHealth terminates the employment of Cindy Carter, I will not be using their services. #BoycottTriHealth”

It didn’t take long for TriHealth to snap into action. The hospital almost immediately placed Carter on administrative leave and launched an investigation into the matter.
Local news station WCPO reports:
The nurse at the center of the controversy was suspended for her own safety and that of others, according to an official TriHealth statement. She did not respond to requests for comment. An investigation is ongoing. In an internal memo, TriHealth wrote that every patient is entitled to reliable and compassionate care.
Yesterday, Seelback took to Facebook to thank TriHealth for stepping up, tweeting: “Thanks to @TriHealth for putting Cindy Carter on administrative leave. That’s a good first step. No one who thinks I am a ‘f*cking c*ck sucking homo’ and that transgender people don’t exist should be treating patients.”

Cincinnati must be the most frequently misspelled city.

She showed with that post that she cannot respect all patients, so she should be removed from that position, and barred from holding any job where she’ll have close contact with a wide array of people.

Well, despite this hateful nurse, Cincinnati is a wonderful city full of many progressive people.I have several friends from there and some that live there now. I am dying to visit.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
We are in jeapordy of this vile abhorrent crunts rant being protected however noxious behavior…..
If the SCOTUS rules in favor of the smcubag motions before it, all that crunt needs to state is that her “religious beliefs” prohibits her from assisting a Gay person. Yes even a patient brought into the ER with life threatening injuries could be refused treatment…

So, while her rant was completely uncalled for, women who do not menstruate don’t need to use tampons. Men don’t menstruate, and therefore they don’t need tampons.
Wasn’t there a Democratic contender for POTUS defending the right of transwomen to safe abortions? They don’t have a uterus and can’t give birth!

Transmen and Nonbinary folk do exist. That’s why they are taking the female symbol off pads. Why they are trying not to call it women’s health. Why they are called pregnant people. It has nothing to do with transwomen.

From the article: ““Women have periods, men don’t.””
Its hard to argue against that one.

Trans men do, as well as non-binary people.

Hey. I’m a man and I have periods. They are called hemorrhoids and they can bleed like hell.

I had a friend who transitioned and they had to live as a woman for a year prior to the surgery to make sure you want to go through with it. You don’t just walk into a hospital one day and it’s removed. .

This isn’t going to end well for her unfortunately.. being a nurse, she is part of a self-regulating profession– once the regulatory body gets wind of this–it’s possible her license could be suspended (likely) or revoked (less likely);
she would definitely be paying an exorbitant amount of money to go for training sessions pertaining to ethics, professionalism, and cultural sensitivity training each probably costing $300-500; plus she’ll be paying for the investigation into her misconduct which quickly ramps up to thousands;
not to mention the 5-10 Journal essays she needs to write to reflect on what she did and why she was wrong; only then can her license possibly be reinstated
