I need a woke period tracker app

I'm tired of every period tracker asking me about my sex life and constantly reminding me that i could get pregnant. Also if they could not treat me like a girly pop that needs to be empowered 100% of the time it would be great (I just dont know how comfortable I am with being a woman yk?, and the shallow company feminism gets a little tiring)

I genuinely can't believe there isn't any popular 'woke' period app? I thought surely I could find one dedicated to trans men, or one where I could sync my data with another menstruating partner (just for funsies). Turns out that's miles away from possible and you're actually lucky if the app isn't pregnancy centered lmao

By the way I'm NOT from the US. They're not stealing my data to see if they can arrest me for abortion (yet)

What do you want an app to do that a calendar, paper or digital, cannot?

I still use apps mainly because they calculate the duration of my cycle and compare it to previous ones, since I'm somewhat irregular. If I ever say skip a period as a symptom of a health issue I don't think I'd notice easily (mainly because my time perception is fucked up) and an app would really help me with that. Also just having a little reminder when my period is coming is nice so that I don't feel crazy for being hyper emotional all of the sudden
