Blessed be indeed. I've never been ashamed of my period. I don't know if it's Aussie girls or just the ones I grew up with but we were always loud and proud about our periods. I never felt a sense of shame or need to hide it and I've always been blessed by it. I feel kinda sad that I'm not far off the days it's gonna leave me!
Sanitary pads is a godawful word, isn't it??
We definitely, as a society, celebrate and honour these natural cycles. I love bleeding on the earth when I'm gardening! It feels right and natural and connected to all that is.
A beautiful post.
Oh and the purple Tribe SteemUp banner looks amazing - I'm going to use it on my next post if you're using it - love love love it!
thank you lovely, I think it's being raised a catholic that done it, so much shame carried and projected on to us. And yes that banner is awesome, love how the figures make it flow xxx
