I’ve only been out for three years, so I’m learning very quickly how things work. I’m very outspoken, and I do have sort of feminist tendencies. Sometimes things are written in a way that is not how you said it, or it gets blown up. So yeah, I do get told: Don’t try to fight that battle. You’re never going to win it. But I still think then it needs fighting! It frustrates me that we are expected as women to just shut up and get on with it. Although you have to be careful, and this is what I’ve learned, the way that you say something—they’ll take a certain portion of it and that will become the headline, even though you were talking about something completely different. So I get it; it’s best to not go there, but I can’t really help myself sometimes
