Actor Rajkummar Rao and Sonu Sood lend their support to “Its Just A Period” Campaign to create awareness about menstrual hygiene and curb the taboo around periods.
Periods are just a normal and natural thing; every girl has to go through this phase. It’s our responsibility that we make them feel comfortable and relax. But in today’s time, there are people who still think it’s a taboo. Women’s rather than showing generosity and making the girls comfortable, treat as if something unusual has happened.
To break the stigma around periods many celebrities like Rajkummar Rao, Sonu Sood and others have come forward to support the girls getting their first period amid lockdown. Because it is termed that in the course of lockdown over 2 million girls will get their first period.
Rajkumar Rao on his Instagram wrote, “On this #WorldMenstrualHygieneDay. I choose to end the taboo associated with periods and talk openly about it. Because, after all, #itsjustaperiod. It is very important to have a conversation about this in order to end the stigma around periods. This will only happen when we all show our support and share a post with a picture like this, tag @stayfreeindia and use #itsjustaperiod. Remember, every voice matters”
Actor Sonu Sood shared, “Over 2 million girls will get their first periods during this lockdown. Don’t make them go through this alone. Talk to them and tell them - Periods are normal, natural and nothing to feel embarrassed about. This #WorldMenstrualHygieneDay, I choose to end the taboo and whispers associated with periods and talk openly about it. Because, after all, #ItsJustAPeriod. If you believe Periods are normal and the taboos surrounding them should end, share a post with a picture like this, tag @stayfreeindia and use #ItsJustAPeriod. Let’s stand together and normalize Periods, because every voice matters”
