Hot Sox: Eco-Menstruation and Period Sex

hot sox podcast

Yeah, the Hot Sox podcast is back and this week we’re seeing red (RIP Jani Lane). Periods! Blood! Sex! Menstrual Pads! Diva cups! That’s what we talk about live (at the time of taping) from Vancouver, BC. I hope you’re ready for an honest conversation around menstruation because that’s what you’ll get on this week’s Hot Sox Podcast.

I’m delighted to have had the chance to sit in the offices of lunapads (www.lunapads.com) and my very special guest is Madeleine Shaw, the co-founder of the reusable menstrual @lunapads.  We talk about sustainable solutions for handling blood, and why it’s time to think about how you “deal” with it. Plus, why it’s “normal” to be grossed out by blood, the importance of being in touch with our bodies, developing countries and the problem with girl’s getting periods and lots bloody more.  Plus, period sex. Hot or not? You decide.

Listen via itunes too.
