Jemima Kirke Instagram – A few months back an offer showed up in my inbox to design a shirt for an organization that raises awareness for menstrual inequity. Menstrual inequity? It took me a minute. Despite the interjection of my privilege I tried to fathom this small, albeit dark corner of reality. Not having the means to look after a normal bodily function would have mental, emotional and physical consequences. For people living in under resourced areas and/or antiquated societies, it seemed a cruel insult to injury. I’m grateful to @wearethecycle for allowing me to contribute to their cause. The design depicts an ambiguous domestic scene where two people, casually share a bed. Thats it. Anything else is projection. Nudity and beds don’t always reference sex. Discussions on anatomy are not always vulgar. But these things often illicit lazy interpretations and projections. Intimacy, care and connection can look like many things. Like educating a child about menstruation and the changes in their body. Or like two people resting together, simply because they’re on the same cycle. Available for 3 wks via @everpresshq, each t-shirt sale directly funds this life-changing program. #buyashirtbreakthecycle LINK IN BIO
