I just don’t even know what to say about this… there is a point (and I think it is here) where modern western medicine completely disconnects us from being human.

This might be one of those instances. Not knocking anyone’s choice, just the wording here. It is as if a period is something “bad" for ALL women, something that is merely annoying instead of a bodily cleansing and a natural cyclical process. I am busy af and it’s not like I have a lot of time to sit around and bleed on the ground like some of my more feral sisters, but it’s also not something I find so necessary to rid myself of — and I also realize I am lucky in that way because it’s not a major problem, just a a thing a few days a month.

Don’t mind me, I’m just going to continue to take a couple of days off every month and feed menstrual blood to my plants.
