14 COUNTRIES, 42 WOMEN FROM PERIODS TO ORGASMS TO FGM. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS OVERSHARING. Nimkos book is going to shift the conversation around womens bodies. Our bodies, and everything they do, make us who we are Amika George, founder of Free Periods CampaignWhat do you do when youre homeless and on your period? What does it feel like to have a poo following childbirth? How do we learn to love our bodies again after theyve been abused? Its rude. Its improper. Its disgusting. All justifications that leave womens questions about their bodies unanswered. And activist Nimko Ali has had enough of it. Following her own experience of FGM and rebuilding her relationship with her body, this important book contains the true stories of women sharing what theyve always been told is secret and shameful from east London to Ethiopia, from pregnancy to menopause.
