Yes, it's that time of the month . Yes it's painful yes it's swings mood yes it's blood but, no embarrassed no shame no hiding period. #worldmenstrualhygieneday 355 million are the number of women that are menstruating in India. -23 million are the number of young girls that are drop outs because they experience menstruation. -Only 36% of the women in India use sanitary pads during period. Over 70% of girls in India have no knowledge of menstruation before their first period. . . . . . While so much has happened so fast but life for a girl has not changed she still gets her periods every month, with even more challenges due to the lockdown. PERIODS DON'T STOP FOR PANDEMIC and neither should our support. How are we not ashamed of being a part of a society where people have the audacity to demand that young women show them their underwear to confirm whether or not they are on periods? If we fail to create safe spaces in the education system in India, how will parents feel motivated to send their daughters away from home, in order to pursue higher education? Patriarchy has time and again used menstruation as a tool, to brand women impure, a secondary gender which doesn’t even deserve the basic dignity that each living being deserves.
