My friend made my graphic even better!
Intersex-inclusive pride flag with the words, ‘Menstrual Rights are Trans Rights,’ and ‘All Genders Can Menstruate.’ A vector depiction of a bloody pad and tampon are in the center of the circle created by the text.

Any gender can menstruate. People assigned female at birth and intersex at birth can menstruate. Not all women menstruate. Disabled people menstruate. #MenstrualRights means recognizing all menstruation in all bodies. #Pride2025
An intersex-inclusive Pride flag in the background. Text on top says, "Menstrual Rights = Trans Rights" and text at bottom says, "Any gender can menstruate." A vector image of a pad and a bloody tampon has been added as well.
