@JuliaHB1 we don't talk about periods because we are too embarrassed. Will you help us to find out why? #smashshamepic.twitter.com/CJtxHFMifS

@Binti_Period is that not a general issue of education in Indian schools? Forgive my ignorance, but isn't this a wider issue?
@JuliaHB1 social attitudes around menstruation affect how we educate in society & schools. multifaceted issue: attitudes, health & education
@JuliaHB1 attitudes:in UK menstruation hidden¬ discussed. In India menstruation dirty&impure- gender: embarrassment,shame&women’s bodies
@JuliaHB1 health: 23% world cervical cancer in india due to poor menstrual hygiene&what about health of London’s homeless women? #smashshame
@JuliaHB1 education: India&UK education woefully insufficient-unrelatable to girls&boys.most girls on menarche terrified,think they're dying
@Binti_Period women discuss periods all the time in UK. Openly talked about. The issue in India is surely much wider than periods.

Discussion only among a minority. Why condoms free on NHS but not pads? Plus homeless women, tampon tax.pic.twitter.com/A1HBPOoHid
@Binti_Period periods openly talked about by most women now. Condoms free cos prevent pregnancy & disease. Sanitary pads don't. Very simple.
