Now

this article really is a load of cobblers.

It seems that menstrual activism (otherwise known as radical menstruation, menstrual anarchy, or menarchy) is having a moment. We learn that recent activists are likely to dress up as a bloody tampon and perform a cheer: "Smear it on your face and rub it on your body, it's time to start a menstrual party!"

No one I know I hope.

I've been wearing my menstrual blood as lipstick for years.

We had a flat leaving party once (stop me if you think that you've heard etc..) with a them of The End.

I went as a period (North American full stop). Bleached hair, white shirt, white breeks, white shoes, red, purple and black slashes all over masel.

Mibby wisnae my most right on idea but well worth it to see the looks on the faces of the polis when they turned up to turn it down.

Z - let's hope not!

Lucy - a praise worthily economical approach to make up there dear.

Naldo - Your police mug shot would have been very unusual had you wound them up sufficently to get yourself hauled in :-)

I was tempted to say that I've worn menstrual blood as lipstick, but that'll only give everyone the wrong idea.
