Marinella Manicardi enjoys herself talking about menstruating, which is a natural, but at the same time embarrassing, topic. “Why do we talk so little about it? “Why are women ashamed of it and men disgusted by it?. The answers to this question will be taken from the representation of the female body, mixing art, science and religion. This represention has given us a series of ideas and concepts that have been stored in our memories for ages in such a way that when we think about menstruation, an ordinary and natural action, it becomes a taboo surrounded by superstitions.
