She came to class. Her eyes were looking down. She straightly went to last sit of the class and stay there quietly. Teacher started teaching. Class went on.
Yes, I have seen many of my friends acting this way in class. I had always wondered why those girls stay quite. What is the reason behind there awkwardness? But my curiosity does not use to be expressed. Sometimes I felt, when boys can freely play and shout, why they are not allowed to do so? These questions also use to strike my mind during my adolescences. Ya, I was curious then about SEX, about sexual ORGANS, there performance. But, I had no guts to ask and other people and other people had not reason to inform me.
Later, I knew mensuration was the cause for their awkwardness then. They used to be tensed and afraid with loads of pain on their body. I sometime also felt that ‘It was kind of diseases’ because at one side nobody used to talk about it and other side girl used to feel shy and problematic.
Now, when I realize it, I question myself, why don’t people talk about it, why girls feel afraid if it is not disease, why they feel shame if it happens to all female. I feel surprise.
As others problems this problem is also rooted with society. Now, when I thought to talk about this issue, I am afraid. Because for society what I talk may be vulgar. But, till when, till when we will be staying backward and act silently and see our female friends and sister faced problem through their bodily change. Now, it is time for us to act against this kind of discrimination. Now, it is time for us to embrace and support her when she feels awkward by mensuration. Now, the time is to Change.
