  • At the outset, let me clarify in no unambiguous terms that my intention is to broach on a subject physically not experienced by me but quite aware of its ramifications. Felt obliged to share honest thoughts on the matter.  Of course, this is not applicable to all those liberated women who do not subscribe to medieval thinking and compunctions.   

 

  • Indeed subject in question is an oft repeated one that invariably succeeds in evoking assortment of reactions varying from despise, disgust, awkwardness, matter-of-fact, nonchalant, taking on the chin, subdued acceptance, just to name a few. Society too piles on the agony, in no small measure one must add, on menstruating women notwithstanding fast changing times and general outlook towards the issue.    

 

  • Why so then majority of the Indian women still continue to be bogged down with perpetual feelings of impurity, helplessness, irritability and something worse? Is it self-imposed shackles or an enforced one thereby constantly struggling to break-free? Two contrasting viewpoints that are neither right nor wrong entirely.  Maybe women are also greatly influenced by the perpetual conditioning received since birth. 
  • 1012Sporadic questions are raised about the practicality of embracing the situation month after month that is not only overbearing emotionally and physically but also extremely uncomfortable to shake-off. Could liberal outlook and upbringing by the parents be the answer to mould the thinking of the girl-child at a very nascent stage?  Does such thinking evokes encouragement and/or readily accepted by the mostly patriarchic society (even to date) of ours? 
  • So what should be the approach adopted to empower such womenfolk to get rid of stigma attached? One way is to completely overhaul the thinking itself.  Unquestionably, Mother Nature has bestowed upon women the unique gift of the power of giving birth sustaining the very humankind since eternity.   In the absence of such powerful attribute, humankind would have been long extinct. If Mother Nature chose women to carry forward the existential legacy of mortals like us, why subjugate by disruptive attitude rather than embrace, celebrate and spread awareness with verve.
  • Further, parents – especially Mothers – should avow to imbibe only those thought processes which essentially impresses on the young minds to approach menstruation as a natural physiological occurrence. No abhorrence and no dreadfulness but showing ways to embrace monthly occurrence with pragmatic acceptance.  Once the girl child grows into women, she shall be fully equipped to appreciate and surmise inimitable distinctiveness of her bodily functioning and go about living as naturally as is possible.  If the flow of similar thought processes continues unabated, necessity to spread awareness is routinely ensured.  Hence, subject matter could be logically concluded as one to rejoice and / or celebrate! What say womenfolk?

  1. I am the manager of JustCBD company (justcbdstore.com) and I’m presently seeking to expand my wholesale side of business. It would be great if anybody at targetdomain can help me ! I thought that the very best way to accomplish this would be to talk to vape stores and cbd retail stores. I was really hoping if someone could suggest a reputable website where I can get CBD Shops Business Data I am already looking at creativebeartech.com, theeliquidboutique.co.uk and wowitloveithaveit.com. On the fence which one would be the most ideal choice and would appreciate any advice on this. Or would it be easier for me to scrape my own leads? Suggestions?
