Woman receives death threats after she posts photograph of menstrual blood

A woman who posted images of her menstrual blood on her personal social media account has claimed she received death threats as a result.

Louelle Denor, from Philadelphia, posted an image of herself holding a softcup and with her fingers covered in menstrual blood on Instagram and Facebook two weeks ago.

Since then, her Instagram post has received a significant amount of publicity – and not all of it positive.

In subsequent screen shots, Ms Denor – a philosophy student at Temple University, showed a user asking her to “kil [sic] yourself now plz” over the post, another wrote: “kill ya pls”

Other users also weighed in, asking her “why would you post that?
