I like to watch women's MMA more than men fighting because they always do their best and fight hard.

When I started, athletes fought for honor, respect, philosophy.

I wanted to train jiu-jitsu instead of capoeira because the mat was soft. It was better than training capoeira on the hard floor. I started reading jiu-jitsu magazines, reading about the world champions, and becoming one of them became my goal.

Each person has a way to promote their fight. Each person has a way to try to create opportunity in their career.

My focus has to be on my career.

I contemplated a career at NIH at one point. I have a neuroscience background.

I don't do enough movies that I can call it a career. It really is sort of like summer jobs or something like that. It's very much like holiday work as far as, okay, I do it, and I'm there for two weeks and hopefully am working really hard, and then it's done, and I kind of go back to what I was doing before.

The point of the feminist movement wasn't simply to set our underwear on fire and muscle into small spaces in the male-dominated workplace, but to create a world where the contribution of both sexes was equally valued and no one's worth was judged on their take-home salary.
