Players with
Parody or serious effort to delete the word “women” from the language? It can be hard to tell.
According to two former competitors, players with vaginas received extra underwear on the latest season of “Survivor,” which aired in 2021.
…
Wallace said it “makes sense” to give players with vaginas more than one pair of underwear because “we got stuff going on own there” and they have different needs than those with penises.

Insider has reported that wearing the same underwear and clothes for an extended period of time can have potentially life-threatening consequences, with the health risks, such as severe urinary tract infections, being higher for people with vaginas.
According to Wallace, shortly after she and her tribemates voiced their concerns, showrunners gave players with vaginas extra underwear.
“They decided, yes, it makes sense to give people that have a vagina two pairs of underwear,” Wallace said. “That was something cool that I think is going to continue.”
It’s unclear if players with penises also received extra underwear.
Has to be parody, right?
Remember, though, it’s gender critical people who are “obsessed with genitalia.”
I don’t think it’s parody.
I am certain that I have read that very same article somewhere already – but with ‘female competitors’ as the descriptor. So either this is a parody, or some TRA has found the edit button.
I am also absolutely certain that this version lies about what Wallace said.
I know I’ve read something on the subject before, and I’m pretty sure I wrote about it here, but I don’t know if it’s the same article or not.
Just last October.
So I pulled up both Insider stories and they’re not identical. Same subject but different authors and different wording. Bizarre.

I’m beginning to think this entire timeline is parody.
The wording is not an invention of the author or editor at Insider. The interview the quotes come from here (timestamped). She dwells on it to a far smaller extent than the article does, she mentions vagina twice and penis once and then the conversation moves to clothing style more generally.
