Just because my bank account hasn’t swelled astronomically I don’t consider myself any less of a success Picture Quote #1

Aggressive female icons have been chronically demeaned... It’s fine for male artists to be angry - they’re encouraged to outwardly express their aggression - but women? I’ve been painted as an aggressive Feminazi because I’m blunt, stubborn, independent, forthright Picture Quote #1
