However, since menstruation is majorly endured and experienced by women, some men though keep themselves close to the process but the majority distance themselves from discussion and giving care to the women.Procreation is the reality of humankind but we choose not to speak about it and the process related to it yet continues. Now, here is the thing, the majority of men have a fragmented understanding of menstruation. As a result, they see it from the lenses of taboo and not a natural process. There is a constant mention of men here, but let’s change the track and switch to women. What do you think, because women menstruate that allows them to have a balanced perspective about periods? Absolutely, not. Even in this information age, there are many women who think a pack of sanitary napkins should be wrapped in the stories of the newspaper so that people don't read the hidden story. There are women who choose not to discuss this natural phenomenon thinking this is a sex-related concept which can’t be shared. And they just don't put a period here. They go further to preach the same to their sons and daughters. So here is the thing only a few women choose to discuss this phenomenon. And that is why we are living in this illusive reality that blood from the vagina is impure. Menstruation is less of a taboo and more of a confusion. Therefore, it needs more and more discussion. And that is why this anthology, Impure: Menstruation and Mentality was created so that the little section of men and women come up and share their perspectives on Menstruation .
