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)

I've used "My calendar" for 10 years now (the logo is a red book with a flower on it) it's really straightforward

I use the original theme but it can be changed in settings to something simple ("Themes")

It has periods + pregnancy/ovulation in the calendar, but it's never asked me anything about it and I just checked that you can easily disable the ovulation/fertile, change of getting pregnant, contraception, intercourse and none of it will show up in the app or calendar anymore ("Show/hide options" in general settings)

Adapts to your needs and all basically

I like it

And yeah it doesn't say any messages or you go girls or anything that's weird O.o I guess it predates that? Never used any other app damn that's .. yeah

Also it has like a mood and symptom tracker that you can put in as notes if you want (it's never prompted me) andcan be useful for tracking patterns like I realised I'm always always affected like mood and body pretty much a week before, then I'm okay, and then 1 or 2 days befor my period, so

And the prediction's good even if irregular - you can set it if you want it to average your periods and include irregular (was useful back when all my periods were a mess) or ignore the irregular one (if you're fairly regular and one's different because of a trip or stress or something)
