today i learned that according to the New York Post, “Forty-two percent of women have experienced period-shaming, with one in five being made to have these feelings because of comments made by a male friend.” (x)
i cant believe this article so i clicked it and was shocked. i mean i have been period-shamed myself but i didnt think A LOT OF PEOPLE can relate to that. i am honestly mad and baffled at the same time.
more reasons why you should get reusable menstrual pads
more comfortable that it feels like you have no pad on
has cute patterns to make YOU feel excited with your period
display it in your bathroom and feel empowered that you’re using a chemical-free and eco-friendly period product
save the earth- disposable pads can take up to 500 years to decompose
discreet to be put in the bag or to bring to the bathroom though WHO CARES? let people see it and educate and empower other period users to switch and be open about their cycle!
before switching to reusable, ive always felt scared to talk about my period. i didnt want to tell someone i get skin rashes or major discomfort because i thought its tmi but hey, its NOT! if people can openly talk about sex, we should be able to openly talk about our cycle that involuntarily occurs monthly! share your thoughts and ask questions about your cycle! i promise you it will help your monthly period better knowing that you’re not alone in this!
