🚩 Period shaming looks like this:⁠ 👎 Whispering about menstruation as if it’s a secret⁠ 👎 Using euphemisms like "time of the month" or "shark week"⁠ 👎 Joking about PMS or blaming emotions on periods⁠ 👎 Treating periods as gross, dirty, or something to hide⁠ ⁠ These attitudes and taboos perpetuate shame, exclusion, and harmful myths—labeling periods as “unclean” and leaving those who menstruate to face stigma and inequality.⁠ ⁠ Menstrual stigma doesn’t just silence conversations—it fuels gender inequality and reinforces harmful stereotypes.⁠ ⁠ 🩸 It’s time to end the silence and break the stigma. Periods are natural, and talking about them should be too!
