In the documentary “Period. End of sentence” I can see how when they ask the girls what the period is, she gets very nervous and shy about it. Even men show discomfort, they show a certain ignorance because they don’t know what it is, they describe it as if it were a disease. It was very interesting how the man showed the girls how to make the pads. But in a way I’m angry, for the fact that we only see women making those towels, the men don’t come close, the only man was the one who taught them how to make the towels. In a way, I’m also saddened by the fact that when they’re introduced to sanitary pads, men think they’re diapers and women think they’re for pregnant women. Being able to show that talking about what menstruation is in front of men should not be a source of shame. One should be proud, because menstruation is a very important path for those who want to bring a baby into the world, it is not something to be ashamed of. While in Diana Tourjee’s article “12 Reasons It Should Be Illegal for Doctors Not to Treat Trans People”, we can see how they talk about the law that was created about denying health care to transgender people. Which I do not find at all, the reason why this was created. Transgender people are people like anyone else, if you deny them access it is like denying yourself access because there is no logic in doing that to them. We can see how each person talks about her point of view about this law, and also each one tells her stories. There are many experiences and opinions about how illogical it is to deny access to transgender people. Each of his anecdotes completely surprised me, but I feel that the one that left me with too much impression was that of Simon Chartrand. Which tells about how he was discriminated against in each of the hospitals, even for things like changing his name. He also tells us how he did not have access to enter an observation room and was forced to be in the ER. But the worst was yet to come, when talking about how he experienced sexual harassment from doctors, where one of them who treated him, was bothering him by taking off his clothes and making obscene comments about his body. I feel that this was not at all ethical from the doctor, it was grotesque and I even feel that I should not practice more, because it assures us that other people are not going through the same treatment. The truth is that his story surprised me a lot, it also caused me a lot of fear since you never know when this could happen to you.

In the article by Dána-Ain Davis, Cheyenne Varner & LeConté J. Dill “A Birth Story” we can see how they talk about the experience that LaConte had to go through in her pregnant state. She had chosen the way to give birth to his baby as vaginal birth, and at the time of doing this process the doctor was completely disrespectful. Starting with the fact that she was given way more doses than usual, the doctor even said to LaConte’s face about how they didn’t force her to have a C-section and how she didn’t want to perform a vaginal birth. The poem that she is writing, we can notice all the sadness that she felt in her time, and how there was no one (besides her family and her husband) who could help her. The connections that she made with the films and the articles, is about how women are very impressed, it’s sad to know that there are even some women who are in charge of making you feel even worse because they feel that way. Every person has the right to be able to decide what they want to do with their body, and it is totally horrendous to know that someone else takes advantage of this or even inflicts his authority on things that he should not.
