‘Great now I am crying’: Parents blindfold their daughter, then surprise her with a cake to celebrate her first period

In 2026, menstruation is no longer a taboo. People are not only shedding prejudices surrounding it but also celebrating it. For instance, user @annuhleee on TikTok shared a video on January 13 this year celebrating her daughter’s first period, often referred to as “becoming a woman.”

When user @annuhleee posted a video of her and her partner celebrating their daughter’s first period, she didn’t expect it to blow up. But here we are, almost a month later, and it has become an internet sensation. As of this writing, the video has more than 100k views and 28k likes. Additionally, more than 600 people have commented on the video, and over 2000 have saved it.
