Privately

by Molly Moore
Molly kneeling by lake leaning into the water wearing a red shawl. Everything is in black and white and you can see the white string from her tampon between her legs
“Menstrual blood is the only source of blood that is not traumatically induced. Yet in modern society, this is the most hidden blood, the one so rarely spoken of and almost never seen, except privately by women.” ~ Judy Grahn

I don’t know what to say about this apart from wow. It really draws me in and is just gorgeous as well as being really evocative. I love what you have done with the splash of colour and that you are bringing something which still feels a bit taboo out into the open.

Love this- the colour of your hair and your clothes and the hint of menstrual flow (of course love this idea ;-)x

Such a powerful image, Molly and the perfect quote to go with it! I really don’t know why something so natural is such a taboo still.x

I really, really, love this image. The colour splash, the little white string, the composition.

Incredible.

Blood red is such a wonderfully vivid colour – it really should be seen more often (especially if combined with an image as sexy as this).

Fantastic image, edit and quote to go with it. This is such an evocative and powerful image, which I’m sure would make far too many people a little uncomfortable if they were to view it, (because we all a tampon string is just horrifying *eye roll*) which makes me love it all the more 🙂

A very powerful image, I love the contrasting colours. The quote is so true, I hate that it is.

I have no idea why it’s still so taboo and uncomfortable to talk about.

Love the image btw, if that were me I’d be head first in the lake!
