“We live in a world designed around men and their 24-hour hormonal cycle; expecting people to show up consistently five days a week, eight hours a day. People with periods aren’t designed that way.
Gender equity is not creating space for 50% of the population to fit into a men’s mould. It is changing the way society operates, creating space for all genders to reach their full potential. This requires a system-level change.”
- Marlou Cornelissen, Founder Period Reality
