There are a couple issues here to say the least. First, gluing any part of your body does not make more sense than a tampon does, which is not a plug, but rather a method of absorption. Second, tampons don't function like a bladder, and neither does the vagina. And one of the biggest issues here is Daniel may not actually know where menstrual blood comes from. When people menstruate, the menstrual blood comes out of the vagina, while urine comes out of the urethra — in other words they don't come from the same place. In his description, Daniel may mean the urine releases the glue, therefore releasing the collected menstrual blood into the toilet along with it, or he may mean menstrual fluid is released when a woman urinates — which is not medically accurate. It should be noted that Daniel is a chiropractor, not a doctor. Chiropractors are considered providers of alternative medicine.

Obviously there were a lot of questions when this hit Facebook. In what seemed like an attempt to answer them, Daniel reportedly posted a misogynist rant. The Mensez website claims the Facebook page (which is no longer available) was hacked, but Daniel gave Forbes some explanations that seem to back up the Facebook post.

"Yes, I am a man and you as a woman should have come up with a better solution than diapers and plugs, but you didn’t. Reason being women are focused on and distracted by your period 25% of the time, making them far less productive than they could be. Women tend to be far more creative than men, but their periods that [sic] stifle them and play with their heads," Daniel reportedly wrote on Facebook. "You said that Mensez sounds incredibly awful, it is not. Even though women are secretive and try to hide the fact that periods CAN be gross, crusty, smelly and incredibly awful. The period its self (sic) is none of that but rather the diapers women are forced to accept are gross ... and women have been duped into thinking that they are wonderful."

Ok. Daniel adds, "My dream is to have women free of the distractions, the psychological issues, that goes along with their periods and see what they develop."

Even if the page was hacked, Daniel told Forbes he thinks periods have led to "large wide social implications for women.”

To be clear, period stigma is real. But periods aren't the problem, nor are the products we have to manage them - the idea that periods make people who have them anything less than human is the issue. Many make fun of women and menstruators for being emotional, erratic or weak because of a natural bodily function. Daniel's alleged post backs that up in claiming that women are "distracted" by periods and far less productive because of them. Periods do not "play games with" our heads, they are simply happening as we live our lives. For some, periods are painful and disruptive, but no glue is going to fix that — instead, a more aware and knowledgeable medical community that does not diminish reproductive health is what we need.

If Daniel has never had a period, he has no business positing what people who have them can and cannot do. Mensez (which is pronounces like menses, not men-says, for the record) seems like a big, glaring example of just how ridiculous mansplaining can be.
