Dignified Menstruation for Climate Justice: Why? How?
Straight to the point! Hundreds of questions surrounding the topic of menstruation and climate justice have inspired me to write this article. Menstruation is a natural or biological process that has been indispensable to keeping this world moving forward in its history for about three hundred thousand years. Rather than discussing and researching situations related to menstruation, perception, thinking, and practices are formed, sometimes kind of positively but negatively, establishing it as a weird power. When comparing menstruators (born with uteri) and non-menstruators (born without uteri), it is clear that most of the menstruators' strengths have little place in research and discussion. Under this trap, menstruation is not only overshadowed but also misinterpreted. In the whirlwind of silence and ignorance, with this or that excuse, it’s been reflected as a ‘scary’ incident even among science students. Even the ones who study science either do not want to talk about it or cannot not talk about it.
