WATCH: What The World Would Be Like If Men Had Periods

This. Is. BRILLIANT.

This. Is. BRILLIANT.

A recent survey by WaterAid asked 2,000 people to imagine a world where men had periods.

Based on the responses, they then made a series of hilarious videos that portray a world where men have menstrual cycles.

The research found that four in ten people interviewed thought that tampon ads would feature celebrity endorsements.

Half of those interviewed thought that there would be a tampon ‘sports range’ and 23 per cent thought there would be a ban on white sportswear.

However, behind the comical videos is a more serious message.

At the moment, one in three women in a number of countries do not have access to a toilet when they have their period.

The charity is asking people to sign a petition to encourage the UK government to support their work providing people with clean taps and toilets.
