Her first period🩸 || Social Issue || Prisma-Princy Khatiwada ||Twinnygirls

In Nepal, the social meaning of menstruation is impurity, and during their menstrual period, women are not allowed to stay in the family . In the rural areas of the western part of Nepal, women are even banished to sheds during their menstrual period, which is a tradition known as chhaupadi.

The most dangerous part of practicing Chaupadi is when girls and women are forced to leave the house. In most cases, that means moving to a small shed in the woods, animal sheds or so-called mud huts. These huts, apart from being dirty, dark and small, hardly ever give adequate shelter against wild animals, rape or the cold.
This tradition stipulates that menstruating girls and women are dirty and impure. They are not allowed to enter the kitchen, to attend school or interact socially.
Let’s end this practice together 🤝
