What I liked

The acting was powerful! The personal stories were rich! The use of scarves to convey a variety of moments/elements in the show was creative and interesting. I applaud and appreciated the brave choice from one of the actors to share their sexual assault story. It’s a shame that their college did not validate their assault so I wanted to take space here to say I believe you and you were in the right.

What I didn't like

More stories from queer/non-binary voices would be lovely!

My overall impression

Well told and well acted authentic stories from South Asian Womxn that shined light on each of the actors personal experiences including one from a non-hetero storyteller & performer- Thank you for that!! I love how detailed each of them were with their stories and in so many ways that specificity made it relatable. One of my favorite moments was the woman who described how vaginal hair can get stuck on maxi pads! I knew I wasn’t alone and yet was totally validated hearing her give voice to this very annoying aspect of menstruation!
