Many people, especially women and girls, feel embarrassed or ashamed to openly talk about periods. National No Apologies Period Day encourages us to normalize and accept this natural bodily function, reducing the stigma and shame surrounding it.
Embracing menstrual cycles without apology sends a message of self-acceptance and self-love. It allows individuals to celebrate their bodies and all that they are capable of, rather than feeling embarrassed or ashamed by something that is completely normal and necessary for reproduction.
National No Apologies Period Day highlights an important issue - many individuals do not have access to affordable menstrual products, leading them to use substitutes like rags or tissues which can be unhygienic and potentially harmful. Raising awareness about period poverty can help push for initiatives to provide free or low-cost menstrual products, promoting better health and hygiene for all.
