Breaking taboos in a rigid desi family

My(16M) family is kinda rigid and authoritarian. I am kinda anti authority type person. When i was younger, the thought "you cannot say No to your elders" was drilled into me. It made me a people pleaser for years. I broke this belief and said firmly that i have my own choice and i will use that right of my choice. That stirred up many many fights but i came out victorious.

Another taboo that my mother and grandmother had were not talking openly menstruation and periods whenever I tried to understand what is happening they just said "Ladies' problem" , first of all, it is not a problem, it may hurt but it is a natural process that is supposed to happen, secondly, i am liberal (call me woke idc) sharing issues will remove the taboo and make the situation better for all generations of my family. I told them ,in a harsh tone, that i have studied about menstruation in science, it may not be in detail but i have, so don't true to disguise it, tell it for what it is .

I feel proudest about two things in my life and one of them is making my family more transparent and less authoritarian despite not even being an adult.
