I wish they had discussed being period poor along with this. Feminine hygiene products are outrageously expensive these days. I volunteer in a food/personal item bank and this is the number 1 requested item. So the shame is also in not having the items and having to wear pads and tampons longer than needed. Or these girls/women use other items such as socks, TP, paper towels, towels, and so on. Hopefully some proceeds of her book can help these girls out.
Yes, you pay more for it butttt do you have period underwear in The U.S? Period underwear have a absorbant pad sewed into the underwear so you need to soak it and wash it straight after use but it lasts a long time........Reusable......In Africa many charities are sewing pads that you clip on to the underwear.......again......resuble and you can see how to make them on the internet........In homeless shelters where they have washing machines they might need to look at female only laundry wear women can wash these clothes with out men coming in constantly.
@@karenmbbaxter We do have period panties and diva cups in America. You must realize that not all girls have the same flow, access to washing machines, uncomfortable with the idea. It’s a wonderful idea and it’s better for the environment and more cost effective. Yet, we still have women who prefer pads and tampons.
You are actually correct! I saw a documentary about this a couple years ago! Specifically in third world countries! This is a huge issue! They missed that opportunity to speak on something that is actually a bigger issue. They are millionaires so they obviously live in a bubble
@@javiruiz8365 Yes it is. I forgot to mention that it also keeps many young girls at home because of not having hygiene products and fear of leaking in class. Therefore it also impacts their grades along with self esteem. I’m glad you watched a documentary on this important subject.
For heaven’s sake. Not all conversations can be about everything, plus, you haven’t even read the book yet.
Her look was indeed fabulous however I couldn’t see any jewelry LOL There can never be too much information about menstruation. I agree that males need to learn about it
We men know , get out and shut up.....
@@haroldnicolaes8854Stick it to yourself.
@@haroldnicolaes8854
I'm sorry you are having a bad day, smile and move along.
@@haroldnicolaes8854I did not know! Just relax! I had no idea women had 3 holes either
@@haroldnicolaes8854, I’m pretty sure no woman has ever demonstrated to you live and up close how to use a tampon.
I was just saying what this country needs right now is a children's period book and Wham, there it is.
Aw, I'm sure you were on her mind when she wrote it. 😮
Nice. ✌️
😂😅
I agree! What a brilliant idea so we can hopefully start demystifying what has always been a natural process for young girls and women. Young boys and men should also be included. 👏🏼
There’s thousands of books being published so don’t buy it! To be honest like who care
Epsom salts pull fluids from your tissues. Makes you temporarily thinner looking.
Exactly. Wonder why she wasn’t saying that.
@@Weezy1975 maybe she's never had swollen feet? Broken ankle?
@@lorrie2878 Maybe she hasn’t, but for mild cases you still never use 20 lbs. My point was that she used that much to look thinner. They were not discussing that because it’s unhealthy and can cause medical issues.
@@Weezy1975 that would fill a large tub. I don't believe the story.
It’s actually a cleanser for your soul and it relaxes you. It’s a great way to clean your aura! 20 pounds is a little or I mean extremely excessive and ridiculous. It takes bad energy away
Republicans banning this book as we watch this video
🙄🙄🙄 books about periods for CHILDREN should be banned! Democrats are the ones who cry “racist” when something gets banned that they don’t like!
Only if it said that boys can have periods too ;)
Why do kids need to know about periods? Young tweens, yes. Kids, no? Let them be kids
This Republicans are insane, just be real and be in the know... one way or the other they should be informed and be real. You Republicans are just being ignorant are so dense when are you going to wake up with the reality of kids grow up and also their bodies changes as days go by....
@@Augirl78 Tweens are kids too. A lot of girls are starting their periods younger, what harm would it do to teach kids about this subject?
Epsom salts are just magnesium which in large doses can cause diarrhea which makes the body lose water weight. The idea shes using that much for just a calm experience is ridiculous.
🛎️
She uses them to lose weight. It's why she has giant bags under eyes
Lol that's what I thought too when I heard her say magnesium. I'm like wait, doesn't that make you 💩
How wonderful that she is contributing such wonderful information to the young
Love her vocabulary and the gentleness of her voice
She’s sensational ❤️
She is just effortlessly beautiful. I loved the sinner I want it back. Cruel summer so good. She is so talented. Jessica n Reese are putting out n producing beautiful TV.
Jessica Claire Biel- ICONIC
Jessica Claire Biel Timberlake 😉❤️
Funniest meme I’ll always remember:
“Breaking News: Jessica Biel refuses to name her child Batmo”
I always wondered why women bleeding is taboo when it's nature and can't have babies with out it
For the same reason we don’t discuss passing gas and defecating.
It’s not taboo. Accidents happen but no one wants to leave blood stains every where.
@@mulan2010 What’s wrong with discussing passing gas and defacating?
You obviously haven’t seen the Dr. Oz show.
She's absolutely gorgeous!!
❤🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️
That's a real woman. ❤
True!!!!
I agree about guys learning about women's changes.
I saw a video about premnopause and how it can start in the 30s. I and men should know this. And after menopause you will get your wife back, so don't give up and make a stupid decision. So we men need to be more aware and sensitive to this.
I didn't know this and I prided myself about knowing alot about women.
Great topic.
Jessica is everything successful. Actress writer producer and business owner. Congratulations Jessica. A very smart lady. She also is a great wife and mother.
Having not read the book yet but I hope she deals with all sorts of periods! As a multi generational menstrual haemorrhaging sufferer (daughter too 😢) really bad periods seem to be more and more common these day's!! 😢
I educated my daughter when she was 9. She saw what I went thru and now she has the same but at least she was more prepared!
Also tried to teach her not to be embarrassed or made to feel ashamed (but it can still be embarrassing!)
Strongly agree boy's need to be taught about them too! Might seem gross to them but hopefully will make them more understanding later in life! Especially men with daughter's, single father's desperately need this info with the absence of a female in their lives otherwise it's like the blind leading the blind!!! 😢
She is so beautiful
She is smart, talented, beautiful, and actually radiating light. I'm impressed by her projects too.
Jessica has a nice black sleeveless dress, nice black high heel shoes, nice jewelry, and a nice hairstyle, she looks very beautiful
But why post your eating in the shower???
she's so qUirKy and uNIQUE
Looks same as when she was in 7th heaven.
Still stunning but skin tightening lol
@@ashleysleeth1106are you flabby and jealous?
We love jessica biel
She's such a beauty. I'm so happy for J. T. and herself!!!!!❤
Lol they are seperated
@@SweetAestheteno they are not.
periods are normal
I Love Jessica Biel!! She’s so Beautiful!! 🥰💜💜
Good intentions, so bravo! 👏🏽 I just find her so boring and kind of fake. I really can’t remember where I first saw her in an acting role, but good for her. I might just buy this book for my 3 nieces.
Holy moly she is breathtakingly beautiful
Absolutely ❤. Shame Justin doesn’t see that also!
She seems like a calm, nice girl. I like her aura.
She’s is such a beauty inside and out ❤️🌹. Justin should treat her like a goddess every day!!!! ☝️
I’m not here to not say we need to educate children we need to educate them on everything I just don’t think we need a book about periods until atleast
Jessica Biel, Jada Pinket, Gabrielle Union, Monica, Kris Jenner, Oprah, just a few of the women I believe to be lesbians/beards of Hollywood.
What happened to Whoops. Too many "yah"
This book is much needed.
She’s too good for JT
Sorry for being sceptical, but I don't believe for a second she wrote a single word in that book. Period(s).
They normally never do! You think Whoopi actually wrote her book? They have ghost writers
Jessica doesn't age and doesn't look full of fillers either
Her Met Gala look was my favourite she looked absolutely gorgeous
On the book, girls are getting younger and younger maturing these days
In my mothers day ages were 13 to 16
my day 12 to 14
these days very often starts as young as age 9, 10
Men have no clue on menstruation and the various health problems it can bring for many women
In past 25 yrs hysterectomies have more than tripled even females in mid 30's
I wonder what we are doing, ingesting or breathing in that is causing these changes
Totally off subject but it's the same with anaphylaxis in children
Growing up i knew not 1 it was so rare, when i had my son he was first in every school he went to and now 1/3 of Aussie schools (primary and high school) have an anaphylactic child or several children
Same with cancer, it was always around but past 30 yrs cases jump more n more every year
Obviously we are either ingesting something or inhaling it into our bodies
Makes one think
wth is this title LOL
I would say that yes, it was like hiding a secret having a period. Mines started at 13. I have mixed feelings about the book. I feel like maybe schools need to have more resources for girls for sure. For some in the comments you have to understand, there are girls starting their menstrual early at age 9. They definitely need educating, but it should really be the mom/grandmother/aunt educating young girls.
They can use her book to help educate them.
I wonder how the MET Gala guest list works. Do brands pay to have a celebrity be invited to wear their design? Do agencies pay? Do studios pay? I'm pretty sure many of the guests are not simply chosen. It's a huge advertising event.
Why isn't Joy Behar here for this segment
Shes too old to remember Periods lol 😆😅😂
@@jean-philippebonorchis6499 she would laugh at this. 😂
She had to leave for a good tag sale. Lol
....Dude....STOP your RIDICULOUSLY dumb questions.
Very pretty Jessica yeha!!!
where's joy?
If I cant have 1 why should I care.. ?? My old lady on hers now. . It makes her talk alot.. alot.. alot.. I just grunt and watch tv
Truthfully, a children’s book about periods is not new. I work in a public library in Canada and we have number of books about female puberty and periods already.
By the way, some women here said that they had their periods at as young an age as 9, which seems so young! I have to wonder why that happens and if it’s happening more often now…
I love how Jessica’s responses feel thoughtful and genuine. She looks like she’s actually considering what she’s saying.
Where was Justin at the MET GALA? I wouldn't take him either.
Not sure what it is with her kids and them barging in. As kids my sisters and I would never have done this; we were too scared of our mother.
Sounds like you were raised by a scary mother, I'm not sure why you think that is a flex
Whoopi constantly interrupting with "yeah, yeah...yeah"
Burning question- where is Joy?
Eating in shower is disgusting on more than one level
I would never eat in the shower! But these people have different bathrooms not like us! It’s like drinking and eating in a hot tub or a pool! Have you ever been to a restaurant bar and drink and eat while on vacation in the pool?
It’s way to crowded so they normally always leave someone behind! They been doing this for years and years. That’s why Joy was not in the panel
Her voice is calming. Her necklace is distracting
I have to say Whoopi and the other female across look like twins. Pulling their hair back high & tight & shaved on the sides is ridiculous whooping.
( Man ! What a woman 👠🌹#10 yeah!)
Just got banned in Florida😅
Not at all
Books with pics of oral sex get banned in the schools
cause they're not APPROPRIATE
The irony to talk about such a topic with a necklace on that looks like a dog leash.
A lot of takeaways. She’s beautiful. She seems a little out of her element though. Like she wasn’t sure where to really land (to be serious, laid back, funny) - it’s like a combo of all 3 like Alyssa said.
I think Sara hit a good point. Period’s have come with shame for women. This seems like a path to normalizing them
Epson salt cleans your energy! It’s a soul cleans! Everyone should have this at home! After a long day at work take a bath with these salts and it will refresh you! So much negativity these days
She seems exhausted. I wouldn't be surprised if she's dehydrated from the use of 20 pounds of epsom salt.
Or maybe they filmed early.
You don't shout from the rooftops that you're about to relieve yourself. That's called intimacy.
It’s such an insult that this woman is married to and defends Justin Timberlake after the horrors he’s caused women.. and then she produces a book about women’s health meanwhile she has two sons. No.
Arent periods already normal?
I think she is doing a good job. Ppl r cool w having 50 smthn sexualities that r pushed in public school system but can't handle a period book😂 bunch of🐱
Bad advice on epsom salt....😢
I’ve taken my coffee in the shower bf 🙄😃😆
Whoops acting like she knows 😂
Get your COVID BOOSTER 👍
I’m pureblood strong. No bioweapons in my body.
"The Veiw" is a SH-1T SHOW.
Ely doesn't want you or your periods.
IS THIS ...GIRLS PERIODS....??????????///
Who else has periods?!
Whoopi is one pretentious gal
When unilingual English people say Pardon my French and then say words like crapshoot, well this is not French, so English people stop saying silly things like that. Why don’t you just swear in English instead like you really meant to do and say?
Okay but that’s ridiculous. I’m not saying pre-teen kids shouldn’t be educated. But for kiddies? No. They don’t need to know about this. I’m British and we were educated very well in a safe, mixed group of 10/11 year olds. You don’t need to be younger than that.
Why not? Some girls start their periods at 9yo.
@@justagirlsd3000 Yep. I had precocious puberty and had my first period at 7 and had no idea what was happening at the time.
My sister got her period when she was like 10! I will always remember that day! I wish I would of been more educated in that subject, but I was 13. This was the late 90s
🙄
The boring desperation of the attention seeking class
Eating in the shower is disgusting.
A child's book about PERIODS ????? Seriously ? I just lost whatever respect I had for her.
Some girls start their period at 8 and 9.... when do you think they should learn about it?
Yasss! As a trans woman I love the representation! We menstrate too!
She’s an antivaxxer who was lobbying with RFK Jr against vaccines.
Great! Love her even more now
Ugh
Unfortunate indeed.
Good for her! People had the right to choose. Well unless you worked in healthcare and you really didn’t.
@@ninajohnson8389another Trumper 😂
😍👍🏽👌🏽📚🥤🍷
Normalizing something that’s already normal 🤦♀️
She said de-stigmatize. Men always act dumb when they hear the word "period." She wants to help make it less taboo to talk about. Take the shame around it away. I'm glad you don't feel shame but MANY women do.
What? Have you ever thought that young girls may not think it's normal initially? That a book could be a useful tool for them?
@@staceybarnett2385 it’s new but very normal
That was my initial thought as well, but then she mentioned how young girls will hide their pad or tampon in their hand and run to the bathroom as if they're trying to keep something a secret. Yeah I totally get wanting to change that whole mindset. I'm on board with that. Stop hiding your tampons in your pocket or your hand. Just get your tampon and go who cares? It is what it is. kids stop teasing when they see it's not effective.
Why would little boys need to know about periods?
Little boys grow up to be men and then they want to f##k around.
So they can empathize and help someone who maybe needs them to get them products, a hot water bottle, ibuprofen, a sweater to tie around their waist to hide a leak until they can get cleaned up?
Menstruation is so much fun and both girls and boys can enjoy it
So boring this whole interview is!
Nobody asked, Yoda.
Vaccinate your kids
Deeeeeefinetly not. Best decision I ever made for my family 🙂
I love my period. I feel great when I get my period. I cannot quite relate to people who get periods complaining about them.
You are one of the fortunate few.
I felt like I had the flu for two or three days every month, but still had to go to school and to work!
It’s weird bc I thought JB was kit so caught up in the Hollywood deceptions. Something as personal as puberty should be between family members. Just as the talk about the birds and the bees. This age of TMI emphasis on TOO MUCH I believe complicates. Because you’re a celebrity doesn’t make you an M.D., pediatrician, family counselor, scientist [i.e. bill gates]. Stick to your day job. Everyone on the view are nothing but a group of opinionated self-centered egomaniacal individuals who do everything to insult, drag down, actively bullying their fellow countrymen!!!
because it's something intimate. Intimacy is privacy and it should not be discussed in the public space. Stop using the female body to corrupt children' minds.
Way to not ask about the abortion her husband asked Britney Spears to get.
Cause it’s nothing to do with her
Why would they ask her about something between Justin and Britney over 20 years ago?
Why would she answer for her husband? She wasn't with her husband then.
Why not ask yourself. Britney Spears body her choice.
A few things: 1) had nothing to do with Jessica, she didn’t know Justin then. 2) Britney made her own choices. 3) why are we still talking about events from when they were teenagers? They’re in their 40s now. People change a lot in 24+ years. 4) you’ve heard ONE side of that story and have no idea how much of it is actually true. I’m not necessarily saying it isn’t, I’m just saying we’re not working with all the information here, if it’s true that was his secret too, and he honestly doesn’t owe any of us talking about it. Only if he ever decides he wants to talk about.
Boring ...
Between the internet and sex education at schools, im pretty sure kids know about periods. Whether people want to be discrret about it, is up to them. I don't think we need a book about it.
They don't know enough, and you don't have to read or buy it.
Children as young as 8 are getting their periods. Many do not have a support system. Education is key.
@peachesandpoets I'm pretty sure they do know and if they don't then they must be very sheltered. Nowadays everything is available on the internet and if they don't see it there they will hear it from friends or classmates. They don't need a book to explain things.
I like her. Too bad she's married to that bozo Justin Timberlake.
It’s too bad that she’s married to one of the world’s most handsome, ambitious, creative, talented, successful men? 🤨
@@rockerpoet07 Maybe those are what you value. I value character.
@@47imagine he’s a decent man of very good character too. I’ve been a fan since 2000. Never been a moment I didn’t love that man ❤️
Disgusting. Kids don't need this book, they are being brainwashed and it's honestly sad.
Do tell....
Why is talking about menstrual cycle "brainwashing?"
They're being brainwashed about periods? 😂 😂 😂
God I can't wait for MAGA to crawl back into their holes.
You're just flat out wrong. A period is a natural and normal thing for young girls. I had my first at 9. Even before we had any sex ed or puberty class in school. Do you want kids to not know what's happening to them? Keep them scared and in the dark like it's the fuckin stone age? Get a grip, sincerely hope you don't have daughters.
Disgusting? Oh boy. You need this book.
Can mothers talk to their own daughters about periods?!. Why are so many adults trying to normalize behaviors for other people's kids. Periods aren't a social issue,. Jessica is just trying to be relevant.
It’s really a shame your like this
I believe the problem is many parents don't talk to their children about periods or sex. So well informed, age appropriate books are important for the children who have no one to talk to. I'd prefer those to knowing nothing.
They don't. Mine didn't. I got my period at 9. How about you worry about your own kids and we will worry about the kids you don't care about once they leave the womb. K?
My mother could not discuss this. Why? I don't know. She could not talk about sex at all. She handed me & my sister a clinical pamphlet and said "read this". We closed our bedroom door and read it. We were horrified. I wish we had a mother that could discuss important things with us.
@@peachesandpoets How about you redirect your anger to someone who cares or to the people in your real life that you're angry at. Because all I did was make a point, but you sound bitter. Dont assume what I dont care about, sweety.
Having a. Is nothing bad. Why why you people so scared of telling about it.
