More From Jean-Paul Sartre

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.
Dream Prayer Liars
They had killed themselves over our dying forests, over manatees maimed by propellers as they surfaced to drink from garden hoses; they had killed themselves at the sight of used tires stacked higher than the pyramids; they had killed themselves over the failure to find a love none of us could ever be. in the end, the tortures tearing the lisbon girls pointed to a simple reasoned refusal to accept the world as it was handed down to them, so full of flaws.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!

More girls were killed in the last 50 years, precisely because they were girls, than men killed in all the wars in the 20th century. more girls are killed in this routine gendercide in any one decade than people were slaughtered in all the genocides of the 20th century. the equivalent of 5 jumbo jets worth of women die in labor each day... life time risk of maternal death is 1,000x higher in a poor country than in the west. that should be an international scandal.

We were a family that made our halloween costumes. or, more accurately, my mother made them. she took no suggestions or advice. halloween costumes were her territory. she was the brain behind my brothers winning girl costume, stuffing her own bra with newspapers for him to wear under a cashmere sweater and smearing red lipstick on his lips.

Redefine what it means to be sexy and what it means to be a woman. showing my skin is not what makes me sexy. i like skirts and dresses just like everyone else, but i had a message i needed to put out there. it was up to me to show people and young girls there was another way.

I think the "trick" is you have to really want to do it. you're embracing more of the world. which is great. we're all in the world together, you know? and the models in the show who are "plus size," they're not in a special place, they're not wearing differently styled outfits. they're just beautiful girls who are in the show, like normal. everything's normal. that's how it should be!
