Can we get over the menstruation stigma already? The article is about menstruation tracking apps. You guys shouldn't be shocked by imagery alluding to menstruation in such a context.

I iMessaged the link to the article to my SO. She said the image was in poor taste and deleted the message. So, there's that.

I'm over the stigma. But it's still a private bodily function, and I still think it's in poor taste. It adds nothing to the article--it's just there for shock value/entertainment. Imagine if this were an article about... I dunno, an app that finds cheap toilet paper near your zip code. Would it be laudable if it included a picture of a smeary piece of melted chocolate?

  This isn't an app for locating menstrual supplies. It is an app for predicting when your metaphorical popsicle will melt.

    And?

Can we get over the menstruation stigma already? I don't want to see images alluding to pissing or shitting. Do I have a piss and shit stigma?

  Apparently to women, and "white knights," yes.
