Fair points. Transgender people are also one of the reasons why I didn't want to
use the terminology "feminine hygiene".

There's a thread somewhere (in the lead up to defining the IMHO perfectly fine current tagging), that goes in to the details of why using a generic term for the products avoids cultural sensitivities outside of western Europe. That said the main issue with tagging these is that they haven't been mapped at all, and I don't see why changing the tagging will improve anything in that respect.

     Great Idea. How about adding something for the location of where the period
     products are. There is already
     `changing_table:location=wheelchair_toilet,female_toilet,male_toilet,…`

     PS: Remember that trans men might need period products too 😉.
