Woman's Physical Freedom,

Japanese trade unions put menstrual leave into their contracts after World War II because of the shortage of material for sanitary napkins. Apparently some Japanese businesses still allow menstrual leave today. (A Japanese student at a Midwestern university sent me her paper on the subject when the physical museum was in my house. She told me she had to send for menstrual pads from Japan because the American ones were too big for her!) I would like to know which American state is meant below.It's amazing how long it has taken to mostly understand the menstrual cycle; Dr. Mosher takes a shot at it, below.Read a short discussion of the book.SarahAnne Hazlewood generously donated this book to the museum. |
