Episode 5: Auratein Wale Shabd: Periods, Bra, Panty
"When I was 16, the first time I went to buy a sports bra, I felt so embarrassed doing that, thoughts like what if the shopkeeper is a young guy.....what if someone is watching me were constantly running in my mind, so I quickly purchased without even checking it, stuffed it in my bag and ran away from the shop".
This episode underscores the societal shame associated with words like Periods, Bra, Panty etc usage of which in public spaces amounts to women being extremely conscious, shameful and under confident and highlights the need to make them a part of the general discourse and dissociate the shame.
