 In this era of people (here, women) facing harassment, eve-teasing, rape by men, post their issues anywhere socially always are reverted by the statement, not all men or say #NotAllMen. Social media is seeing this hashtag for the past 10 yrs. and this phrase is older than your great grandfather. How? Miss Wardle: Men are such deceivers. Mr. Tupman: They are, but not all men. This is the scrape from the popular novel 'Pickwick Papers' (1836)  by Charles Dickens. Whenever any crime against women takes place anywhere in the world, men, who do not get involved tend to be a 'good man' impose the same hashtag also abbreviated as NAMALT. They consider this as their defense mechanism. Feminism has always focused on equality among everyone despite gender.

Or they don’t mean anything else than their sad phases, their struggles, and their pain? Some of them updated their stories saying “we are with you in your depression, your mental health issues (not going to blabber about this either), etc....

However, Hindu Literature or Vedas has no mention of anything bad about this biological process.  Women are barred from entering public places, touch food, and are also not allowed to see any man during periods.
