Periods, body positivity, and third wave feminism

Periods, body positivity, and third wave feminism
Fellow feminists can we square something for a second? I'm not brainwashed by patriarchy because I think periods are gross. Newsflash people all blood is freaking gross. Especially when it's mucus-y and coming from my lady bits once a month for 2-3 day and it smells awful. I understand the process and purpose fully. I'm not ashamed of it. But I am disgusted. And I have every right to be. So what if it's natural. Poop and pee are natural and they are still gross. It seems to me that third wave feminism has good ideas and building blocks. But it can't see the forest for the trees. WoC, disabled women, queer women, issues of biological women's health, all need work. But which issues come first is splintering us. And still self serrated. I'm babbling...
