Half of humanity bleeds once a month for half of its life and hides it and removes it from their underwear and bedding, so that the other half will not be disgusted ...
Half of humanity persuaded the other that something that allows the survival of the human species is something that is impure, should be locked in seclusion, takes away common sense and blocks promotion, etc.
I am delighted that the topic is disenchanted in front of my eyes. I remember the first ads for sanitary pads in Polish TV and I am surprised that 30 years later we still fill them with blue liquid...

The picture started on the first day of the 2020 Women's Strike protests in Poland, while I had to stay sick with COVID at home instead of protest on the streets.
A few months later, I was contacted by Dr. Camilla Mørk Røstvik, writing at the University of St. Andrews' work on menstruation in art, with a request for comment and the opportunity to quote it in the work.
