It's when someone has an agenda of their own for the record that it doesn't work for me.

A good man often appears gauche simply because he does not take advantage of the myriad mean little chances of making himself look stylish. Preferring truth to form, he is not constantly at work upon the facade of his appearance.

And if I had a preference, it would be to be able to not be in the studio until 4 in the morning.

There's a continuity between what I care about in any form: I care about it in my music, in article-writing, in how I dress, in how I live, in my relationships, in how I navigate paparazzi, how I decorate my home. There's such a continuity between everything that I don't really care what form it shows up in.

I salute you for your courage, and I applaud your perseverance, and I embrace you for your faith in the face of adversarial forces.

...and what it all comes down to is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet.

My greatest environments in which I can grow, or grow up, is in personal romantic relationships with a man.
