[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that a lot of these camps as well as the entire outdoor adventure industry in general are based around logistics created by and for men. It wasn't until well into adulthood that I found all-woman outdoor experiences and appropriate mentorship for handling some of the challenges of having a female body outdoors.[/quote] This is shockingly true. The sad truth is that the most likely situation is that no one planning/leading the camp thought for one moment about periods or the kids who have them. I'm sorry, OP. It really sucks to be both a kid and a parent facing this situation.[/quote] I don’t believe in living like this. It only sucks if you want to be a victim about it. I’m sure there are women involved in the camp. There are also adult men who know people menstruate. I mean what, no one has ever had diarrhea at this camp?! Everyone else has a fairy butt? I highly doubt it. [/quote]
