Most pads have enough plastic for three to five plastic bags. So, very stretchy, comfortable. But also, wanting a period-positive gender-inclusive brand.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Okamoto declared, &#8220;So we are August \u2013 wanting a gender-inclusive name. On the back it says, \u2018We\u2019re here for everyone who menstruates.\u2019 And I think especially in this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/dylan-mulvaney-blasts-bud-light-supporting-influencer-more-transphobia-couldve-imagined\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">age of transphobia<\/a> it really means a lot to us to be proudly a gender-inclusive brand.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She added, &#8220;Everything about the product we try to be super thoughtful about from how we design it to be as comfortable, as absorbent as possible, but also as sustainable as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/womens-health-ceo-pushes-gender-inclusive-pads-everyone-menstruates\">Source &#8211;
