Summary:
A zine distributed by Blood Sisters, with stories, poems, illustrations and essays on the politics of menstruation. As well, the zine includes instructions for making cloth pads and suggestions for alternative menstrual products including sea-sponges and the Keeper (a reusable menstrual cup). Many of the pieces are critical of the marketing industry for menstrual products, and the potentially dangerous toxins present in conventional pads and tampons.
