Menstruation Matters - Challenging the Law's Silence on Periods (Hardcover)

Explores the burgeoning menstrual advocacy movement and analyzes
how law should evolve to take menstruation into account.
Approximately half the population menstruates for a large portion
of their lives, but the law is mostly silent about the topic. Until
recently, most people would have said that periods are private
matters not to be discussed in public. But the last few years have
seen a new willingness among advocates and allies of all ages to
speak openly about periods. Slowly around the globe, people are
recognizing the basic fundamental human right to address
menstruation in a safe and affordable way, free of stigma, shame,
or barriers to access. Menstruation Matters explores the role of
law in this movement. It asks what the law currently says about
menstruation (spoiler alert: not much) and provides a roadmap for
legal reform that can move society closer to a world where no one
is held back or disadvantaged by menstruation. Bridget J. Crawford
and Emily Gold Waldman examine these issues in a wide range of
contexts, from schools to workplaces to prisons to tax policies and
more. Ultimately, they seek to transform both law and society so
that menstruation is no longer an obstacle to full participation in
all aspects of public and private life.
