Periods, UTIs, urine leaks, discharge, childbirth — women’s health deserves understanding, not judgement.
Hygiene matters. Shame doesn’t.

I’m 18 years old, and being a part of Gen Z, I often find myself educating my family about how much the world has changed—not just in terms of time, but also in people's mindsets, perspectives, and understanding of equality. There’s a saying: “If you want to bring change to society, start at home.” And that's exactly where I started. I began by having simple, everyday conversations with my family. I encouraged them to understand that everyone is equal, helped them normalize feminism, and gradually challenged the misogynistic statements and beliefs that had become a part of our daily conversations. Today, I'm genuinely happy to see how much their perspectives have evolved. My mother, especially, now actively stands up for feminism during conversations with other women. Even when people tell her that certain things are against tradition or are not acceptable, she confidently expresses her views and stands by what she believes is right. And I've seen a similar change in my father as well. What makes me happiest is knowing that my family is now trying, in its own little way, to bring even a 0.1% positive change to society. And I truly believe that every young person has the power to create this change. Instead of constantly blaming the older generation for their outdated mindsets, we should have meaningful conversations with them, educate them, and help them see things differently. Because change doesn't always begin with a revolution. Sometimes, it begins with a conversation at your dinner table. And if we can change the mindset of our own families, imagine the impact we can create in society.
