<p>Sighs....</p><p>I have said it over and over again and here you are still butresssing on it. In the society where we live, it is so painful that most things women do are attributed to being shameful. It's appalling how they want us to shrink for them when it is for ourselves.&nbsp;</p><p>One example is menstrual pads. The stigma around it is inherently disgusting. We have been been told to keep our cycle in silence because of what people would say.&gt;&gt;</p>

The menstrual shame thing was very huge when I was a child. Even as young as I was, I didnt understand why you had to be so secretive and shameful about something that is a natural occurence and a part of life.
