in my womens studies class we had to read an article by a native american woman. she talks about how indians viewed women as having some super power, and when they're on the rag they're even more powerful and that magic throws off the magic in the ceremonies so they have to segregate perioding women. also menstruating women can kill you instantly with a glance, a step, or putting period blood in your soup. apparently.

that is what I learned today. thought it was relevant.

also pads are gross. tampons don't stick to you and you don't have to look at it every time you pee.
