I think that feminism is in cycle. Feminism rotates between backlash and interest.

I am such a bossy producer and such a control freak that there's a part of me that really longs to be bossed around.

I get emails every day from people saying, "I never heard your music. I don't know anything about you. I just happened to watch this on Netflix. I hope you're feeling better. More power to you." It just shows you, I don't know, how generous and wonderful people can be.

When you're the person who's kind of in charge of everything a lot of the time, it's sometimes nice to get bossed around. It's sometimes nice to have somebody say, "This is what I want you to do" and to stretch your abilities.

I didn't even know what the word lesbian meant until I was called one... and then I had to look it up in the dictionary.

My illness has changed me - I've always thought "life is short and I wanna make as much of it as I can," but I really don't have time to mess around. This has really been a wake-up call in terms of what's important, and I'm working hard to figure that out. I need to get better at not doing favors for people all the time. It's hard because there's so many people who have helped me get to the point where I'm in a band that people wanna come see, or where people pay money to see me lecture.

No one's female and male, we all have so many different traits. It's just a lie that these certain traits are male and these certain traits are female.
