If you’re reading this, there’s a pretty high likelihood that you get a period. And if you get a period, there’s an even higher likelihood you’ve got a story about it. Whether funny, embarrassing, empowering or downright terrifying, periods tend to inspire strong emotions. That’s why by Kt by Knix created the #PeriodOvershare campaign, which aims to fight the stigma against periods by bringing these stories into the open and showing the world there’s nothing to be embarrassed about.
