Questo è il mio sangue

By: Élise Thiébaut

3.91

Format: 216 pages, ebook

Perché ancora oggi le mestruazioni sono un argomento di cui ci si vergogna, che discrimina le donne…

"Ma dalla più povera alla più ricca, dalla più ignorante alla più istruita, le mestruazioni restano ancora oggi il tabù numero uno, inserito nella Top Ten delle cose la cui esistenza si accenna sottovoce con aria cospiratoria, passandosi un tampone interno come se trattasse del manoscritto destinato a rivelare che Gesù era una donna o della formula segreta di quella bevanda frizzante che causa obesità in tutto il mondo."
