is that-
a guy?
not being super grossed out by periods??
:o
thats something you dont see every day
youre a cool one dude 😎
There's nothing to be grossed out about. It's natural and people have it every month. It's this fucking patriarchal society that has made the subject of menstruation a taboo.
If we don't speak about menstruation, we'll never be able to remove that stigma.
And romance novels or any novel for that matter, rarely talk about characters having periods, why don't they?
There's nothing to be cool about. I believe everyone should be talking about periods.
And this TED talk helped me a lot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysRvY...
Also, we did speak about periods on this nook a while back. I'll see if I can find the page.
I just hope The Hormone Diaries: The Bloody Truth About Our Periods also talks about the Pink Tax. Flow: The Cultural Story of Menstruation I don't think this book spoke about this topic at all.

yeah i totally agree with that!
its just that most people (guys, usually) act super grossed out by it or they make fun about it
well i use that in my favor and i complain about it in front of them so they'll feel really uncomfortable 😎
You can talk about it here. I'll never make fun of it or anything. In fact, I'm always curious to learn about people's experiences with menstruation.
Many women have menstrual cramps just before and during their menstrual periods. For some women, the discomfort is merely annoying. For others, menstrual cramps can be severe enough to interfere with everyday activities for a few days every month.
Um "many"? why don't they say most? because everyone who I have asked if they have cramps, they've answered yes.
