Here, pass it to me! Pass it to me!

Sorry!

Dude!

Let me see, let me see!

Look at my nose.

Ah, it's just blood.

Of course - it didn't happen to you. Look at this!

I'm sorry. My God, she's bleeding a lot.

Does anyone have a tampon to put in her nose?

My God, friend.

Look what you did?

Do you have a tampon, for the love of God?

Is my nose crooked?

No. A little.

Why do women bleed blue?

Menstruation exists ever since women exist.

It is an absolutely nautural and normal process.

So why does a little bit of blood every month

cause so much discomfort for men and women?

Why don't we speak openly about this topic?

And most importantly,

what is this blue stuff in the advertisements of menstrual pads?

The history of the mystification of menstruation is long.

There is little documentation available on how women in ancient times dealt with their menstrual cycles.

Do you know why?

Because the scribes were men.

Pliny, a roman naturalist,

wrote that naked menstruating women could stop hail,

hurricanes and thunder as well as destroy fields and kill bees.

He also said that menstrual blood could drive dogs mad.

In Medieval Europe,

Christianism transformed the menstruation into a shameful period.

Women suffered to hide their cycles form the public eye.

Shame!

Some carried bouquets of herbs to disguise the smell of blood.

Shame!

Access to medication that would relieve the pain of menstrual cramps

was also regulated by the church.

God wanted each contraction

to serve as a reminder of Eve's sin.

Shame!

Shame!

The first disposable product emerges in 1929.

In order to buy them,

women would anonymously place money in a box on the store shelf

to avoid the embarrassment of having to interact with the sales clerk.

Shame!

Part of this shame and neglect of women's health

has to do with the systematic exclusion of women from the spaces of power,

including medicine.

Before Industrial Revolution,

women were the doctors of their families and villages

because they knew a lot about medicinal herbs and remedies.

Later, in the 18th and 19th centuries,

statutes made by men prohibited the practice of medicine by women

unless they graduated from certain schools.

But do you think they were accepted in these schools?

But after centuries of evolution,

today's society deals with menstruation in a more mature manner.

Shame!

Or not.

The feeling of guilt imposed by religion

and the exclusion of women from medicine have left their marks.

Menstruation is still treated as a taboo.

Even though it's a natural process,

our culture still carries a lot of shame in relation to this topic

Many girls menstruate and feel embarrassed to talk to their parents about it.

Women hide from their partners that they are menstruating.

And leaking in public

is seen as the worst thing that could happen in a woman's life.

That' s true.

Another remnant of the Medieval times

is the custom to demonize the PMS.

Behind each joke is an attempt to stereotype the woman as weak,

problematic, out of control, inferior.

On the other hand, the euphemisms used in marketing

contribute little to the discussion when they associate menstruation with riding a bicycle,

horse-riding,

bungee jumping,

always using white clothes.

And gentlemen,

for the love of God,

our blood is red,

just like yours, my dear.

It is shameful to act as if we were still in the Dark Ages.

Menstruation is a biological process that will never change.

Sexism, however, is a social process that needs to change.

And it is much more dangerous than a simple PMS.

It is very dangerous indeed.

Right? Much more dangerous.

PMS happens occasionally, sexism is constant.

That's true.

This was the last video of #PorQueMulher.

But there is no reason to be sad, no reason to cry,

because the project was wonderful.

It was an incredible success

and I invite you to continue to produce content here on this platform.

We are stronger together

and our voice is much more powerful when we speak together.

A big kiss to everyone

and I hope to see you in other videos here on my channel.

Kisses!

France insoumise et Russie, pourquoi? 1/3 - Duration: 10:05.

So...

Everyone shall think freely about it.

However, when an election comes, a presidential election,

It is like the begining of a soccer game: it is not the time to go play volleyball.

Well, if it's a presidential election,

We had to fix the simplest problem of all: find a candidate.

Here I am!

On June 5th 2016, the euro member of Parliament Jean-Luc Mélenchon officialized the start of his electoral campaign.

He already presented himself to the 2012 elections, and managed to bring to his communist allies a two-digit score,

something they never knew since 1981.

For his 2017 campaign, he chose to lake his communication with social media and particularly Youtube.

Which is a very interesting choice, because it implies that the main adversary of a political character

who proposes so much changes for the society, is not another candidate but the main media.

Therefore, "mainstream" journalism would not be the 4th power anymore, but a tool to comfort the interests of its owners and friends.

So, considering the fact that Mélenchon's international position is very engaged, very critical against the actual french diplomacy,

and the fact that I like to talk about polemical subjects on my channel;

I propose to talk about 3 themes of his program:

France-Russia relations, NATO and the European Union.

Of cours, my objective is not to convince you about the supposed quality of the program, but to undestand its logic, to make constructives critics,

and simply to seize the occasion to talk about these subjects.

It would be like a "citizen chat", so every answer from you is welcomed.

"Personnally I only care about France's interests, which are to make the Russians our partners.

And even president Hollande did admit it, he must had open a History book, and finally understand why...

Russia, a peculiar partner...

Mélenchon's position about Russia, and maybe about Syria too, is complicated and needs to be explained.

Complicated because it often ends in weak caricatures like "he is pro-Putin".

Weak because it reveals a very poor knowledge of the character,

whom the ideas, the 40 years old political progression, is completely opposed to the Putin's project.

As it is demonstrated in this authentic and un-modified footage:

"And what do you think about Mélecnhon's proposal to abolish the French "presidential monarchy"?"

I is also a very poor knowledge of French political world, because there are much more assumed pro-Putin.

"We can rejoy about the presence of the Russian Parliament Vice-President, a social rights defender,

and member of Vladimir Putin's party, Mr Andreï Issaev.

Ladies and gentlemen, dear comrades..."

To support Russia and belong to the left wing, is complicated.

We already raised the subject but it is important to precise the fact that Putin's relations with the radical or extreme right wing,

is not the same at all concerning the left wing.

Previously, I showed you extracts of the anti-gay marriage activists:

"Russia is a country that still protects family and marriage"

Of Philippe de Villiers, attached to his cultural roots:

"The European peoples do not think like their rulers (...) they look at you and see a President that has a word for the world"

And most of the all, the ex-Prime Minister François Fillon [candidate for 2017]:

"France, Europe on one side, Russia on the other, have many interests to build an economical and social system

which prevents us to accezpt another system which wouldn't fit us."

You noticed it, these 3 right wing activists always praise Russia for its social, conservatve, repressive system.

Well, maybe not repressive for everyone.

To steal, in every country, is wrong, and trafficking stolen products is wrong. [Fillon candidate is actually accused of massive money embezzlement]

Yes I know, that one was easy, please understand I could let this one just pass...

From Mélenchon's point of view, Russia is only interesting for its international behaviour,

and it should be a partner only for strategical purposes.

And it is one of the tragedies of contemporary left wing. Since the Soviet Union came down,

Russia is no longer an exemple, and the left cannot expect financial support from it anymore.

What we may say abouth the support offered from Russia to Fillon or Le Pen,

is that that Russia has radically changed its way to interfere in European politics, it doesn't do it with left but right win parties.

And this is where Mélenchon is trapped, because he is now "supporting" Russia because it doesn't follow the American lead.

"I do not accept the Disneyland diplomacy, with the good guys here and the bad guys over there, they are all bad guys, they all have interests!"

I say trapped, because the candidate declared he did not endorse the internal actions of the Russian government,

but is still called a "pro-Putin".

"In fact, I love Putin's politics, i love Russian bombardments - YOU TOO?!...

No but, it is always the same thing, the same questions.. so let's go directly to the point and say it..."

He doesn't hesitate as well to recall that the Russian political character he prefers is an activits currently in jail for opposing to Putin's power.

What puts Mélenchon in a bad situation, is his will to not repeat the same accusations against the Russian government, because he thinks they are already understood.

This partnership with Russia is proposed because Mélenchon thinks as a soverainist.

He sees France as a power, and seeks for a powerful ally who could recognize it, even if the internal systems are opposed.

And this is not new, we alreandy know that the general De Gaulle himself disccussed whith Mao Zedong's China and the Soviet Union, without supporting their system.

"France must listen directly China and also be understood by it.

There is of course no sign of any approbation to the regime that dominates China.

France is only recognizing the world as it is"

So, why this proposition about a France-Russia rapprochement?

Because it is the traditional French strategy when the country feels threatened by Germany since the 19th century.

Mélenchon knows well French History and certainly wants to rely on this legacy.

A legend says that some night, when he was very sick, Bismarck Chancellor had a terrifying nightmare:

France was making an allaince with Russia, and then....

Heart attack! the fatal blow...

Well, its a legend.

What I want to say is that if France was to leave the European Union, the country might be isolated.

So France would have to find another partner. This is the moment when Russia comes along, as the great plan B since Napoleon.

In order to catch central Europe and Germany.

It also could be a strong message to the UK and the US, by realizing a real post-Cold War diplomacy.

We could also raise the subject of the economical sanctions against Russia, enlarged to July 2017, which continue to weaken the European economy.

To make things clear, in 2013, the European Commission estimated that exports towards Russia represented almost 120 billions of euros,

at the time, Russia was the 4rth partner of the EU.

There are also "personal" reasons we could add to explains Mélenchon's position towards Russia.

For instance, Mélenchon's foreign affairs adviser, is an ex-French soldier with serbian roots, and as you know,

Serbia is often considered as Russia's little sister.

But what is interesting is that he declared to have been shocked by NATO's bombardments in Belgrade in 1999.

He doesn't desribe himself as a pro-Putin but shares some positions with him, and wants to recognise Russia as a power.

Finally, it is a subject which always be use to blame Mélenchon. Because it always be considered as unatural for a left-wing politician to propose a foreign policy based on state interests and not on ethics.

In others words, the candidate is following the realist theory of international relations, and the liberal theory as expected.

The first one thinks the world with power and state interests to maximize, and the second promotes Law and common values.

However, he is not very clear in his position against Saudi Arabia:

"When Sarkozy went to meet the Saudian king in Morocco, did he say "would you consider Human Rights and stop whip to death this guy who wrote in his blog?"

No he didn't, and by the way nodoby did ask why he didn't"

Even if Saudi Arabia is worts than Russia in terms of Human Rights, it spreads more dangerous influence,

but if we follow his logic about Russia, and considering the fact he doesn't like the Iranian regime, France has to have an ally in the region, doesn't it?

So this rapprochement would not make many happy faces, that's for sure. In the European Union for instance, or among the American military.

Speaking of American military, these fellas might have a bad surprise...

La recuperación de los primates en Oasis Park Fuerteventura - Duration: 8:51.

Hello! I'm Belén Roca and I'm a vet specialised in primate's behaviours.

Today I want to show you our rescue section for primates in Oasis Park Fuerteventura.

Here is where there are two yellow baboons

A species that has arrived in our park due to seizure by authorities or donations by individuals

victims of people treating them as pets.

That is a imitation, an anomalous behaviour.
