A man can't pass on, like a mother could, an awareness of your body, or sensuality, or what it means to be a woman. I was never taught what femininity was. I learnt it - or rather I invented it - on my own. I tended not to talk at all, if people were staring at me.

I imagined you were supposed to have an intellectual ability - and I'm making no claims here - proportional to your supposed good looks.
