I am being dragged - sometimes willingly, sometimes kicking & screaming - into the life of being #woke and a #feminist ...which is translating to being an #everyoneist I'm not sure why this caught my eye long enough to watch, but it made me think: what do we tell our daughters by refusing to show blood or acknowledge menstruation? There is almost never a mention of it in media...and when there is, they use that gnarly blue liquid. If something that color is coming from any orfice of your body SEEK HELP! Menstruation is a fact of life for over half the population of the planet. It isn't pleasant (I'm told), but it isn't abnormal. I don't know how old I was when I told my first dirty joke. Probably early teens...I do remember the discussion in Chasing Amy about the importance of "dick and fart jokes." If we can joke about body parts, and those body functions, we owe it to our girls to be able to acknowledge menstruation. #endrant #mightygirl #dadofdaughters #normaltobleed #bloodisred #menstruation #period #feminism #learningtodad
