Event Description
Menstruation is often framed through a narrow, gendered lens - but the lived experience is far more diverse. This panel creates space to explore what menstruation looks like across queer identities, including trans, non-binary, and queer experiences.
Together, we’ll open an honest conversation about the realities of menstruation for people with queer identities - the joys, the complexities, the moments of disconnection, and the unexpected places of empowerment. We’ll also explore how relationships, identity, healthcare, and community shape our experiences of our cycles.
This discussion aims to bring visibility to experiences that are rarely spoken about, while asking: what would more inclusive, supportive, and affirming conversations around menstruation actually look like?
This will be a gentle, reflective, and open conversation, with space for nuance, curiosity, and shared learning.
