Welcome to Menstrual Monday, the first post in a series of weekly guides to the latest in menstrual news, blog entries, and art!

 

  • The wonderful ladies from the Stuff Mom Never Told You podcast read our email on their latest show!  Listen to "Is Dating Going Extinct?" on itunes or through their website on HowStuffWorks.com.  They will soon do a podcast on alternative menstrual products, so stay tuned!
  • Ideablob is a website where you can vote for the clever or important project that most appeals to you in order to fund the idea.  The Huru organization has developed a program to provide reusable pads to girls in developing countries who cannot afford proper menstrual products and often are taken out of school during their period.  Vote for their idea here.
  • Ever wanted to host a Menstrual Movie night?  Look no further than MOLT's (Museum of the Menovulatory Lifetime) Flofilm Festival guide.  This handy guide includes reviews, interviews, discussion questions, and even opportunities to rent and buy the sometimes hard to find films.
  • My Moondays is a beautiful new website developed to encourage the celebration and acceptance of our menstrual cycles.  Check out their resources, connect and share with the community, and get ideas to celebrate your period.
  • And last, but certainly not least: we received a delightful little email from Joy, one of our loyal customers, featuring her adorable son, Max Margolis, from Nantucket, MA 9 months old who loves GladRags almost as much as his mom -- as a hat!

Do you have a cute or funny GladRags-related photo? Email us at [email protected] and we'll share your photo on the blog!
