Students at a Connecticut high school ripped down a new state-mandated tampon dispenser from a boys bathroom and they did it in record time.

The dispenser was only up for 20 minutes before it was seen on the ground. The principal was ‘disgusted’ by it being torn down.

Here’s more via the New York Post:

A state-mandated tampon dispenser inside a boys’ bathroom at a Connecticut high school was ripped down 20 minutes after it was installed this month, according to the building’s “disgusted” principal.

The dispenser was placed in the Brookfield High School boys’ bathroom at 9:30 a.m. last Wednesday, but by 9:52 a.m., it was torn from the wall, leaving tampons littering the floor, the school’s principal, Marc Balanda, said in an email to students and staff obtained by CT Insider reported.

The fixture was put in the bathroom as part of a new state law that mandates each school must provide free menstrual products in women’s restrooms, all-gender restrooms and at least a single men’s bathroom.

“I am aware that the law says “men’s bathroom” but the actions today that led to vandalism and destruction of property were the work of immature boys, not men,” Balanda stated, per local outlet Inside Investigator, which obtained the email.

He added there have been other instances of vandalism in recent weeks in boys’ bathrooms, including tearing down soap dispensers and stuffing objects down toilets, but he found this the “most egregious” case, per the email.

The state mandate was put in place so transgender and intersex students would have menstrual products available if needed, CT Insider reported.

“Having open dialogue in the school community can help everyone understand the law, ensure a school environment where everyone is respected, and all students are supported,” state Department of Education spokesperson Matthew Cerrone told The Post.,

State education officials aren’t aware of any other similar instances, he said.
