OKAMOTO: "It's potentially one of the most natural biological processes of life. And yet history and society has built up this stigma that makes menstruators feel so ashamed."
KING: "Yes."
OKAMOTO: "It makes us feel like there's something wrong with our bodies. We're taught that period blood is contaminable like, disgusting thing."
KING: "Dirty, nasty."

OKAMOTO: "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, right?"
KING: "Yes. Right."
