What kind of Dry January have you had… Dry AF… am I right?
Why is it that we can talk about periods and puberty with ease, but when it comes to menopause, and yes, drrrryness… we all get a little skittish…. 🌵🐫 I created this post in an attempt to capture a woman’s hormonal bookends.
I shot the Johnson & Johnson tampon ad when I was 15… face forward… confident… curious… “when can I start using tampons?” The other one is a take on what it could look like if we tackled midlife hormonal challenges with the same kind of boldness.
When it comes to the “adult version” of hormonal changes we’re thrust into the shadows of secrecy and shame… with a total lack of information, plus misinformation! Who knew we’d have to sneak a pump of the good stuff before some hanky panky?
According to @drjengunter, “A lubricant can be a great addition for sex. Some people may need it because they have dryness or other symptoms of menopause, but many people, whether in menopause or not, simply like lube. Unfortunately, there is a lot of stigma about lube. Some people are even made to feel as if there is something wrong with them for liking and/or needing lube. It seems you’re either too wet or too dry for the patriarchy. To that I say, bollocks. And, lube for all my friends, should they so desire.”
Let’s get real, take menopause and yes, dry va-jay-jay’s, mainstream. Unapologetically so!
More than 1 billion people worldwide will be menopausal by 2025… That’s a whole lot of dry.
