The conversation around menopause is *finally* changing. Now, more women are seeing it as a chance to reframe their thinking about themselves and their value, too.
. It’s unflinching and addresses the gamut of menopause, including a reminder that most animals, unlike humans, don’t live past the end of fertility. She writes that sex in menopause can feel like being a teenager again: it’s uncomfortable and weird. “My feeling was there’s a lot of information but a lot of it is very misogynistic. Like, you look on the list of symptoms on a hospital website and it says ‘senile ovaries.’ I mean, nobody says ‘senile penis,’ you know? Or, like, ‘atrophied vagina.
Whether we’re looking at message boards around infertility, something I experienced, or mining for menopause information, so much of what’s out there centers cishetero relationships and male partners. It is a change inbodies, our lifestyles, our energies and desires, but it is framed as the loss of what women have been valued for in society: the end of our childbearing years.
“I think there’s historically been this fear that if you were honest about where you were on the fertility scale, you might not have a man’s protection,” says Steinke. “But things are changing, and we don’t have to feel that way anymore.” I’m not in menopause or perimenopause yet, but you better believe the last thing I care about is my ability to still be a sex goddess or the loss of my utility in childbearing. I just want to know what the hell is going on with my hormones and what my options are for handling them. I want to know the worst that could happen, not the best., says I’m not alone in that. “It’s important to note that people before us have talked about this, by all means.
