society as a whole has got to abolish the stigma around periods. society has girls everywhere once, sometimes twice, a month, for a week at a time, in shame/embarrassed about something as natural as the night turning to day, something that cant be controlled. and it doesn’t stop. from the first time someone gets their period, there’s shame around it. hell, there’s shame around going through menopause. you can’t have your period, you can’t not have your period, it’s violent policing over women’s bodies and it’s so gross!!
and like, im sorry, but im tired of going a week of not wanting to leave the house because that means im going to have to change a damn tampon in public and im terrified someone in the bathroom will hear the wrapper and know im on my period. im tired of seeing kids embarrassed to ask parents for more pads/tampons/whatever, adults being embarrassed about having to buy them themselves, men but wanting to buy that shit for their girlfriends because apparently it’s wrong to be on your period. which. it’s not. it’s so fucking natural and normal!
there’s nothing gross or wrong with being on your period!! it’s normal! it’s natural!! yeah it kinda sucks ass to be bleeding for a week and pms can be ass, but it’s no cause for shame!!! or embarrassment!!!! let women literally just exist!!!
terfs don’t touch!!!!! fuck you!
