kids reality fearless
I had some fears as a kid, but I was also relatively fearless. Maybe that's a result of living half the time in reality and the other half in fantasy.
children character sleep
So you eat, you sleep, and then this wonderful child comes out, but you don't feel like you have any control over that process, over her, over her character and who she is.
character stories inventing
I was always inventing characters and making up stories.
mean fighting boys
If you have to fight a crowd of boys, it's best to go for the biggest one. That way you won't have to fight them all. The others will see that you mean business and you will win their respect.
girl sexy taught
Some girls are taught to be sexy.
mirrors class feelings
I loved the atmosphere of the dance studios - the wooden floors, the big mirrors, everyone dressed in pink or black tights, the musicians accompanying us - and the feeling of ritual the classes had.
feminist stills
I still consider myself a feminist.
interesting people way
The thing that is most interesting about people is the way they are when no one is looking at them or the way they are when they are in private.
Don't uncork what you can't contain
perspective different streets
How weird it was to drive streets I knew so well. What a different perspective.
thinking defining gender
I dont think gender is aesthetically defining for me.
mother sex use
My mother wanted me to understand that as a woman I could do pretty much whatever I wanted to, that I didn't have to use sex or sexuality to define myself.
threat
Don't make a threat and then not do it.
ifs
I always thought that if I was popular I must be doing something wrong.
