Nesakiet to Frenkam Herbertam (vai Thinx darbiniekiem), bet vi\u0146\u0161 paties\u012bb\u0101 ir izdom\u0101jis diezgan \u0123eni\u0101lu menstru\u0101lo apak\u0161ve\u013cu. 1965. gad\u0101. Tikai, nu, vi\u0146a bija virsdr\u0113bes - un t\u0101s sp\u0113ja daudz vair\u0101k nek\u0101 tikai sav\u0101kt asinis un endometrija g\u013cot\u0101du.\n<\/p>\n
Herberta izgudrojums, protams, ir klus\u0113\u0161anas kost\u012bms. Tas ir viens no vi\u0146a rom\u0101na \"Dune\" ikoniskajiem tehnikas elementiem - un ikonisks zin\u0101tnisk\u0101s fantastikas tehnikas elements visp\u0101r - un tas ir izgudrojums, kas radies nepiecie\u0161am\u012bbas d\u0113\u013c. Arrakis, kur norisin\u0101s liel\u0101k\u0101 da\u013ca rom\u0101na, ir tuksnesis; lai izdz\u012bvotu, plan\u0113tas viet\u0113jie fremeni konstru\u0113 piegu\u013co\u0161us uzvalkus, kas sav\u0101c visus vi\u0146u mitros izdal\u012bjumus - sviedrus, ur\u012bnu, ekskrementus, izelpot\u0101 gaisa pilienus - un p\u0101rstr\u0101d\u0101 tos dzeramaj\u0101 \u016bden\u012b. Ideja paties\u012bb\u0101 ir diezgan lieliska, un, ja t\u0101 padom\u0101, da\u017eas dienas m\u0113nes\u012b t\u0101 b\u016btu \u013coti noder\u012bga ikvienam, kuram ir menstru\u0101cijas. Tualetes t\u0113rpi vienk\u0101r\u0161i aizvad\u012btu visus izdal\u012bjumus un p\u0101rstr\u0101d\u0101tu tos kop\u0101 ar visu p\u0101r\u0113jo!\n<\/p>\n
Lai b\u016btu skaidrs, Herberts nekad gr\u0101mat\u0101 nepiemin \u0161o konkr\u0113to m\u0113r\u0137i. (\"N\u0113, tas ir \u013coti, \u013coti labs jaut\u0101jums,\" saka D\u016bnas kost\u012bmu m\u0101ksliniece \u017dakl\u012bna Vesta, kad es vi\u0146ai jaut\u0101ju par manu priek\u0161statu par maksim\u0101lo spilventi\u0146u. \" Varb\u016bt Frenks Herberts toreiz t\u0101 t\u0101lu nedom\u0101ja, bet vi\u0146\u0161 dom\u0101ja par visu p\u0101r\u0113jo. \" ) Autors gr\u0101mat\u0101 \u013coti detaliz\u0113ti apraksta klus\u0101s t\u0113rpus - caurul\u012btes, kas sav\u0101c gaisu no deguna, to, k\u0101 \u0137erme\u0146a kust\u012bbas darbina s\u016bk\u0146us, \" mikrosve\u010du \", kas darbojas k\u0101 \" filtrs un siltumapmai\u0146as sist\u0113ma \" -, bet vi\u0146\u0161, \u0161\u0137iet, ne\u0146\u0113ma v\u0113r\u0101, ka da\u017eiem \u0137erme\u0146iem ir citas funkcijas nek\u0101 citiem.

Neviens t\u0113rps nevar\u0113tu pareizi p\u0101rstr\u0101d\u0101t \u0137erme\u0146a \u0161\u0137idrumus t\u0101, k\u0101 vi\u0146\u0161 to apraksta, nep\u0101rk\u0101pjot termodinamikas pamatprincipus. Tom\u0113r tas, ko vi\u0146\u0161 izdom\u0101ja 1960. gados, b\u016btu bijis lielisks veids, k\u0101 tikt gal\u0101 ar menstru\u0101ciju asin\u012bm, net\u0113r\u0113jot simtiem dol\u0101ru gad\u0101 par tamponiem, apak\u0161ve\u013cas ielikt\u0146iem vai menstru\u0101ciju kr\u016bz\u012bt\u0113m.\n<\/p>\n
Protams, Herberts \u0161eit nav vien\u012bgais. Kosmosa zin\u0101tnisk\u0101s fantastikas st\u0101stos reti tiek apl\u016bkoti periodi. Riplija, cik es atceros, nekad nav staig\u0101jusi pa Nostromo, mekl\u0113jot tamponu. Ar\u012b Reja nemekl\u0113ja T\u016bksto\u0161gades salonu, lai gan var iedom\u0101ties, ka vi\u0146as ietinamajam ap\u0123\u0113rbam var\u0113tu rasties rado\u0161s pielietojums. Gr\u016bti iedom\u0101ties, kas b\u016btu noticis, ja \"Marsie\u0161a\" Markam Votnijam b\u016btu bijusi dzemde. Pat pa\u0161reiz\u0113j\u0101 filmas Y: The Last Man adapt\u0101cij\u0101, kuras aktieru sast\u0101v\u0101 ir gandr\u012bz tikai m\u0113ne\u0161rei\u017eu lietot\u0101jas, par m\u0113ne\u0161reiz\u0113m netiek daudz run\u0101ts. T\u0101 vienk\u0101r\u0161i nav t\u0113ma, kas bie\u017ei tiek apl\u016bkota zin\u0101tniskaj\u0101 fantastik\u0101, ja vien t\u0101 nav t\u0101da spekulat\u012bv\u0101 fantastika k\u0101 Handmaid ' s Tale, kur\u0101 galvenok\u0101rt tiek run\u0101ts par reprodukciju. \n<\/p>\n
Un, b\u016bsim re\u0101li, nav t\u0101, ka zin\u0101tnisk\u0101 fantastika nekad nenodarbojas ar \u0137erme\u0146a jaut\u0101jumiem. Jau vair\u0101kus gadu desmitus \u0161aj\u0101 \u017eanr\u0101 netr\u016bkst kiborgu, transhum\u0101nisma un pat virtu\u0101lo pasau\u013cu, kas ap\u0161auba m\u016bsdienu priek\u0161status par to, kas ir \u0137ermenis un t\u0101 funkcijas. Ir daudz vietas diskusij\u0101m par periodiem, ta\u010du t\u0101s notiek reti. (Iesp\u0113jams, tehnolo\u0123ijas ir padar\u012bju\u0161as t\u0101s novecoju\u0161as.) Lai gan klus\u0101s hidrot\u0113rpi darbojas k\u0101 otr\u0101 \u0101da, tie nek\u0101d\u0101 zi\u0146\u0101 nepadara tuksne\u0161a iem\u012btniekus par kiborgiem, un Herberta pasaul\u0113 \u0161\u0101da lieta, visticam\u0101k, tik un t\u0101 b\u016btu tikusi aizliegta, \u0146emot v\u0113r\u0101 dom\u0101jo\u0161u ma\u0161\u012bnu aizliegumu.

Gr\u016bti neiedom\u0101ties, kas b\u016btu var\u0113jis notikt, ja vair\u0101k rakstnieku b\u016btu piev\u0113rsu\u0161ies \u0161ai t\u0113mai. Zin\u0101tnisk\u0101 fantastika m\u0113dz sap\u0146ot par liet\u0101m, ko cilv\u0113ce galu gal\u0101 cen\u0161as ieviest pasaul\u0113 - m\u0101ksl\u012bgo intelektu, robotiem, viedt\u0101lru\u0146iem -, un, iesp\u0113jams, ja Herberts \u0161o ideju b\u016btu ielicis sav\u0101 revolucion\u0101raj\u0101 bestseller\u0101, k\u0101ds Procter & amp; Gamble b\u016btu uzskat\u012bjis, ka ir for\u0161i ieguld\u012bt l\u012bdzek\u013cus, lai izstr\u0101d\u0101tu ko vair\u0101k par sauso audumu un spilventi\u0146iem ar sp\u0101rniem. (Lai gan, TBH, \u0161ie sp\u0101rni\u0146i patie\u0161\u0101m ir \u0137epuraini.) T\u0101 viet\u0101 m\u0113ne\u0161rei\u017eu tehnolo\u0123ija jau gadu desmitiem ir nemain\u012bga - un NASA reiz ierosin\u0101ja Sallijai Ridei \u0146emt l\u012bdzi 100 tamponus vienas ned\u0113\u013cas ce\u013cojumam kosmos\u0101. \n<\/p>\n
Iesp\u0113jams, neviens nev\u0113las las\u012bt par vannas istabu zin\u0101tnisk\u0101s fantastikas gr\u0101mat\u0101 - \u0161\u0101das ikdieni\u0161\u0137as lietas ir dom\u0101tas dz\u012bvei, nevis lappusei (vai ekr\u0101nam). Ta\u010du, \u0146emot v\u0113r\u0101, ka Herberts skaidroja mitruma atg\u016b\u0161anu no ur\u012bna un fek\u0101lij\u0101m, nevis menstru\u0101cij\u0101m, tas \u0161\u0137iet p\u0101rpratums, kas liecina par vi\u0146a rom\u0101na \"aklaj\u0101m zon\u0101m\", kad runa ir par sievie\u0161u identific\u0113to varo\u0146u lom\u0101m. (Dune rom\u0101n\u0101 nav transseksu\u0101lu person\u0101\u017eu.) Bene Gesserit ir vienas no politiski un gar\u012bgi ietekm\u012bg\u0101kaj\u0101m sieviet\u0113m Dune visum\u0101, tom\u0113r par vi\u0146\u0101m run\u0101 ar\u012b k\u0101 par draud\u012bg\u0101m kosmosa ragan\u0101m. Paula Atreida m\u0101te D\u017eesika, pati ietekm\u012bga Bene Gesserit locekle, ir sp\u0113c\u012bga centr\u0101l\u0101 fig\u016bra, ta\u010du vi\u0146as st\u0101st\u012bjums liel\u0101koties kalpo Paulam. Tas pats attiecas uz \u010cani, fremeni, kas k\u013c\u016bst par vi\u0146a konkub\u012bni. (Daudzi no \u0161iem raksturojumiem lika Denisam Vilj\u0113vam pastiprin\u0101t sievie\u0161u lomu Herberta gr\u0101matas ekraniz\u0101cij\u0101). Iesp\u0113jams, vi\u0146u miesas vajadz\u012bbas netika \u0146emtas v\u0113r\u0101, jo netika \u0146emta v\u0113r\u0101 vi\u0146u re\u0101l\u0101 dz\u012bve. \n<\/p>\n
Par laimi, tagad ir cilv\u0113ki, kas beidzot dara to, ko Dune nedar\u012bja. DivaCup un citi v\u0113las sagraut menstru\u0101lo kr\u016bz\u012b\u0161u tirgu; GladRags atgrie\u017e atk\u0101rtoti lietojamus ieliktn\u012b\u0161us; Knix, Modibodi un citi pied\u0101v\u0101 da\u017e\u0101da veida uzs\u016bco\u0161u m\u0113ne\u0161rei\u017eu apak\u0161ve\u013cu - gandr\u012bz vai hiperlok\u0101lus klusos t\u0113rpus bez \u016bdens re\u0123ener\u0101cijas funkcionalit\u0101tes.
