December 8, Dignified Menstruation day

विभेद,दुर्ब्यबहार वा हिंसा मुक्त अवस्था नै मर्यादित महिनाबारी हो | ''
दक्षिण
गोलार्दयीय मर्यादित महिनाबारी संजाल
पृष्ठभूमि: महिनाबारी प्राकृतिक अबस्था भए तापनि सबै जात, बर्ग, क्षेत्र, धर्म आदिमा महिनाबारीलाई `अशुद', `फोहोर' रगत स्थापित गर्दै बिभिन्न नाम र तहमा (देखिने, नदेखिने, धेरै थोरैआदि) निषेध, विभेद र बार्नुपर्ने कुराहरु अभ्यासमा छन् | यस्ता अभ्यासहरूले महिनाबारी हुने व्यक्तिको शशक्तिकरण, स्वास्थ्य, शिक्षा, रोजगार, सरसफाई आदिमा अल्पकालिन र दिर्घकालिन रुपमा असर पार्दै सिंगो परिबार र समाजलाई असर पारेको तथ्य अनुभब र अनुसन्धानहरुले प्रमाणित गरिसकेका छन् |

यो जबाफ हो, जब स्वास्थ्यकर्मीले उनलाई तिम्रो यौनांग जांच गर्नुपर्छ, कागज बनाउनु पर्छ भने | उनको पाठेघर छानो र झिक्रोको कापमा झुन्डिएको कुभिन्डो जस्तो बाहिर निस्किएर दुइ तिघ्राले अडाएर राखेको जस्तो देखिन्थ्यो | उनी नजिक पर्दा नै केहि कुहिएको जस्तो ह्वास्स हरक आएको थियो | डल्लोले घर्षण भएर दुइ तिघ्रामा सिक्काको जत्रो छेउछेउमा रातो, बिचमा झनै रातो जिल्जील परेको घाउ थियो | पाठेघरको मुखमा पनि निलनिलो, घाउ थियो | बस्दा सतहमा ठोकिएर घाउ भएको हुनसक्छ | केहि क्षणको कुराकानी पछी थाहा भयो, श्रीमानले आफैले पाठेघर भित्र पसाएर संगै हुने रहेछन |
घटना दुई: औला गनेर देखाउदै, अझै ८ महिना छ, त्यसपछि .... |
No Doubt: Menstrual Discrimination is a form of Gender Based Violence
Few people and organizations in Nepal and beyond get confused and are asking why is Nepal urging to celebrate the day as Dignified Menstruation (DM) for December 8? There could be many reasons behind this enquiry; they might considered menstruation is private or secrete issue, could think it is women's issue, or it's matter of `shy', or dirty, or matter of using the menstrual products without making public, or May 28 has already the Menstrual Hygiene day so it's not just making confusion or duplicate the day and so many others.
