Heyoooo, your favorite DEEP conversationalists are back with yet another episode of Deep Convos…and this time, it’s all about PERIODS. That’s right, we said it, MENSTRUATION. Because it’s NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED ABOUT, and in fact is something to be proud of. From EUPHEMISMS to MEDIA PORTRAYALS to PERIOD SEX, we try to cover it all. (This the first in a series of conversations Meg and Fran are going to have about TABOO TOPICS, so stay tuned.)
