Women's health CEO, whose company has their own pads for periods, says they want "a period-positive, gender-inclusive brand" and "on the back, it we're here for everyone who menstruates and…in this age of transphobia, it really means a lot for us to be a gender-inclusive brand" pic.twitter.com/Lakney9sTH

From Daily Caller:
Nadya Okamoto made the comments during a Thursday morning appearance on CBS News. Okamoto said she wanted to end the stigma around menstruation because “periods make human life possible.”
“History and society has built up this stigma that makes menstruators feel so ashamed, it makes us feel like there’s something wrong with our bodies, we’re told that period blood is contaminable, disgusting, dirty. And I think that it always breaks my heart to hear so many stories every day of young menstruators who get their period and have never heard about it.” …
“On the back it says, ‘we’re here for everyone,’” Okamoto pointed out, showing a box of August’s menstrual products. “In this age of transphobia, it really means a lot for us to be a gender-inclusive brand.”
[Oh, the irony of opposing body shame while at the same time endorsing mutilation to deal with dysphoria. Put that on top of the irony of fighting supposed menstruation shaming while refusing to acknowledge that menstruation is exclusively female. These people twist themselves in knots to justify untruth in the name of popularity. — Ed]
