Science on Tap — “Period: The Real Story of Menstruation”

May 9, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$15 – $45

The next Science on Tap at Portland’s Alberta Rose Theatre is “Period: The Real Story of Menstruation” at 7 p.m. May 9. Tickets are $15 to $45, available at scienceontaporwa.org/events/alberta_may_9_period-2/. Recorded live shows are available to Patreon members after the event.

Menstruation is something half the world does for a week at a time, yet it remains largely misunderstood. Blending interviews and personal experience with engaging stories from her own pioneering research, author and anthropologist Kate Clancy challenges a host of myths and false assumptions about menstruation. Clancy takes up a host of timely issues surrounding menstruation, from bodily autonomy, menstrual hygiene, and the COVID-19 vaccine to the ways racism, sexism, and medical betrayal warp public perceptions of menstruation and erase it from public life.
