connected deeply drawn obsessed personal violated women
I was drawn to vaginas because of my own personal history, because of sexuality, because women's empowerment is deeply connected to their sexuality. And, I'm obsessed with women being violated and raped, and with incest. All of these things are deeply connected to our vaginas.
bad people
Let's be honest, L.A. is not a bad place to live. There are some crazy people there, but I tend to get on with them!

We just take each game like it's a provincial final -- not a club game.
club final game good hopefully luck ourselves pressure provincial rest underdogs
We just take each game like it's a provincial final - not a club game - but like a provincial final. We like to not put too much pressure on ourselves and be the underdogs so hopefully that will keep us in good luck for the rest of the week.
beauty billion energy fixing focus spend took women year
We focus on fixing our bodies. We spend $40 billion a year on beauty products. What if we actually took that money, took that time, took that energy and started fixing the world. Women would actually be in power,
space dancing together
Dancing insists we take up space, and though it has no set direction, we go there together. Dance is dangerous, joyous, sexual, holy, disruptive, and contagious and it breaks the rules.

body radical can-do
One of the most radical things women can do is to love their body.
far-away coming-back being-afraid
Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back.
struggle people working-together
What I feel now is connected to people. I feel connected and I feel a lot of love for people. I feel the possibility of what building social movements and what working together in struggle creates. Whatever that energy is, it feels a lot better than what I felt when I was younger - which was worthless and disconnected and isolated and alone.
dream home thinking
You know I think so many of us live outside our bodies. My dream is that people will find a way back home, into their bodies, to connect with the earth, to connect with each other, to connect with the poor, to connect with the broken, to connect with the needy, to connect with people calling out all around us, to connect with the beauty, poetry, the wildness.
tired honor victory
I don't get tired, because every time a woman doesn't die or doesn't get beaten or doesn't get raped or doesn't get honor-killed or doesn't get acid-burned, it's a huge victory.
