Getting Always pad company to change their packaging to be more gender inclusive

Getting Always pad company to change their packaging to be more gender inclusive

The Issue

A lot of transgendered people who are assigned female at birth still have periods, and during those times of months are extremely difficult, especially with dysphoria. Dysphoria is a feeling that your body does not match your gender, and millions of people deal with that feeling every day. It can cause depression and anxiety, and having little messages like "#Fightlikeagirl" on pad packaging can just make it worse. There is no need to be so gendered with packaging, as it can cause dysphoria. After claiming in 2019 that they would remove their Venus symbol off of the packaging, 2 years later it is still seen, as well as the "Like a Girl" messages. These need to be removed as not only girls get periods. If we can get enough signatures on this petition, maybe we can grab the attention of CEO Fama Francisco at Always and get them to actually make a change in the packaging of their pads.
