In honour of world book day, I bring to you a brand new post all about books! Books have the power to move you and make your brain work in ways that television and films cannot, and the great thing about books is that you can never read them all.

This post is going to be about periods. It is going to talk explicitly about the blood that leaves the vagina every month; more specifically, the blood that leaves my vagina every month. If you are immature and have the mentality of someone living in the 1700’s, then this post probably isn’t for you.
