00:00You know the fact of periods, there was this account I was reading and the woman says,
00:05it's not just me, most of the women that I know of, their husbands do not spare them during periods.
00:10Forget about not entering the kitchen.
00:13The man's lust does not spare the woman even if she is menstruating.
00:17So you will not let her enter the kitchen, but you will enter her body.
00:20It is our great tradition that women should not put their hand inside the pickle jar during periods.
00:27Why? You know, if a woman is menstruating and she touches pickle, the entire lot will rot.
00:32And some creative genius will come up with a supportive argument.
00:35Such contempt you have for science.
00:38You want to insert science where there is really no science, just blind tradition and belief.
00:43And because of this stigma you have attached to this purely biological thing,
00:48there is no count of women who get diseases, infections and suffer silently.
00:52Most of India is still rural and small town.
00:55Women cannot come out and say they are having gynecological problems.
00:59It's like any other usual process in the human body.
01:03That's it.
