Drawing on their own experiences as a toxic shock survivor and a menstrual pain and period dysphoria sufferer, Ela Przybylo questions why, on what terms, and for whom menstruation has been fixed around experiences of pain. Instead, they present a vision for menstrual justice that refuses the womaning of bleeding and the further erasure, dismissal, and denial of menstrual pain as real pain. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e If menstruating is framed as somatechnically elective, Przybylo contends, it provides avenues for both celebrating and appreciating cultures of bleeding as well as for remaining critical of the ways in which bleeding has been used as a transphobic and sexist tool to fix gender in place. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ela Przybylo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1517918375\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781517918378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Minnesota Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 5.00w x 0.23d","brand":"Ela Przybylo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46685841096959,"sku":"9781517918378","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c54098c6-ceb1-4ee4-b276-6ed736af659c.jpg?v=1741726931","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ungendering-menstruation-ela-przybylo-9781517918378","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
