    The Invisible Fetish: Period Sex, Menophilia, and Bloodhounds

    In a world where nearly every kink has crawled out of the shadows and onto your For You page—feet, furries, feeding, you name it—there’s still one kink that seems to make even the most sex-positive squirm: menophilia. Despite period sex being as old as humanity itself, this messy and bloody turn on is still hiding in the wings. Today, we’re exploring Bloodhounds—those who seek out, fetishize, and get off on period blood. We’re unpacking this red light district of sexuality by looking at the cultural disgust, the pornography (or lack there of), and why, of all the things we’ve normalized, this one is still lurking in the dark. That’s what you’re in for today, on Impolite Society. If you'd like to support the show, visit us on Buy Me a Coffee- every little bit helps!
