内容説明
This book interrogates how the so-called "Feminine Care" industry travelled from the United States to Latin America via manufactured and disposable menstrual management technologies and certain narratives about menstrual bodies. The author focuses on Argentina as a case study to deepen the analysis of transnational politics and business practices around menstruation, drawing on women's voices to unveil why menstruation is still a bodily process that is natural yet taboo in Latin America. This fascinating volume is a must-read for anyone interested in how the "Feminine Care" industry helped reify the insidious social mandate of shame and secrecy over women's bodily experiences.
