Intro

Art by Nani Shivani Gangadia and Cherry Walker

Every period is different, from person to person and even from month to month. We all have different relationships with our periods, and yet  mainstream media wants to just show one part of the story and move on, silencing in the process the voices of many menstruating people. We think that’s bullshit. 

We think that every story is so valuable and deserves to be told. We gain so much by learning from others' experiences. At times validating our own stories. while also opening ourselves up to learn from other’s and gain better understanding of their realities. This is how we exercise our empathy. This is how we learn to love each other a bit more. 

Now, enjoy the brave work of our collaborators. We commend them for diving into the painful, the uncomfortable, the weird and fascinating world of periods with us. And sharing their experiences with us. We are as always, inspired and thankful.
