There will be blood [2018]



Ce post philogyne suit le fil de mes cycles menstruels. C’est-à-dire que chaque mois, quand j’ai mes règles, je l’actualise en ajoutant des images, des liens, des textes ou des vidéos, les plus belles, les plus drôles ou les plus éloquentes sur le sujet. Et tous les ans, je recommence. 

Si tu es d’humeur badine, tu peux t’amuser à calculer quand j’ovule.

« I am a woman, therefore, I bleed.
It's messy, it's painful, it's terrible, & it's beautiful.
And yet, you wouldn't know. Because I hide it.
I bury things at the bottom of the trash. I breathe, ragged and awkward through the cramps, all the while holding onto this tight lipped, painted on smile.
Tampons? Shhh. We don't say those words out loud. Hide them. In the back pocket of your purse, in the corner of the bathroom drawer, at the very bottom of your shopping cart (please let me get a female cashier).
Events or engagements get missed. I'll tell myself it’s the PMS, sure, but it has more to with the risk of being "caught," at what...I'm not quite sure.
And I’m lucky.
Over 100 million young women around the globe miss school or work for lack of adequate menstrual supplies, & fear of what might happen if the world witnesses A NATURAL BODILY FUNCTION.
WHY?
Because hundreds of years of culture have made us embarrassed to bleed. Have left us feeling dirty and ashamed.
STOP PRETENDING. Stop using silly pet names like Aunt Flo because you're too afraid to say "I'm bleeding" or "vagina." Stop wasting so much effort hiding the very thing that gives this species continuity.
START talking about it. Educate your daughters. Make them understand that it can be both an inconvenience and a gift, but NEVER something to be ashamed about. Educate your sons so they don't recoil from the word tampon. So when a girl bleeds through her khaki shorts in third period (pun intended), they don't perpetuate the cycle of shame and intolerance. »
