They're embarrassing. They're gross. And they are misunderstood. Okamoto shows that, because of these stigmas, a status quo has been established to exclude people who menstruate from the seat at the decision-making table. She aims to explain what menstruation is, shed light on the stigmas and resulting biases, and create a strategy to end the silence and prompt conversation about periods. -- adapted from jacket 505 0 $a Let's understand periods -- The status quo -- Period products -- History of the period stigma (in the US) -- Period poverty -- Period policy -- Menstruation in the media -- The fight from all sides -- Take action. 650 0 $a Menstruation $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Feminine hygiene products. 650 0 $a Women $x Government policy $x Government policy $z United States. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination $z United States. 650 0 $a Women's rights $z United States $x History. 941 $a 14 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207011226.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111010419.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012025356.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230603011521.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210022234.0 952 $l CZPD706 $d 20220406011053.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722061239.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210702013015.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20200724012121.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110075036.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20191126031518.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20190702012940.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20190131010138.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20181101010112.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6A1B2F38DD9B11E899AE6C0297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
