In a time of unprecedented crisis, the world has been forced to confront the realities of inequality and injustice that have long plagued society. Nowhere is this more evident than in the ongoing discrimination against women’s bodies. Despite medical advances and increased awareness, only women have uteruses and only women can menstruate - yet they are still treated as second-class citizens when it comes to their health. The lack of access to adequate healthcare for women has been well documented, with many countries failing to provide basic reproductive care or contraception. This issue is further compounded by a lack of education about female anatomy and menstrual health, leaving many girls feeling embarrassed or ashamed about their bodies. It is clear that there is still much work to be done in order to ensure that all women have access to quality healthcare and education about their own bodies. Until then, we must continue fighting for equality and justice for all people - regardless of gender or any other factor.
