Festival Special Episode, Season 02, Redefining Menstrual Norms, Podcast Gulabi Sambad
Manage episode 447996356 series 3274132
In Nepal, menstrual taboos, especially during festivals, still restrict women's participation in rituals and limit their access to kitchens and worship spaces due to notions of impurity. In this festival special episode of Gulabi Sambad, we question the relevance of these age-old beliefs. Joining us is writer Sarala Gautam, who highlights how these practices infringe upon women’s freedoms and ignore the life-giving essence of menstruation. Gautam delves into the cultural struggle between tradition and awareness, urging us to reconsider outdated views that marginalize menstruating women.
