Janet Mock Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer

Birthday: March 9
Femininity in general is seen as frivolous. People often say feminine people are doing “the mostâ€, meaning that to don a dress, heels, lipstick, and big hair is artifice, fake, and a distraction. But I knew even as a teenager that my femininity was more than just adornments; they were extensions of me, enabling me to express myself and my identity. My body, my clothes, and my makeup are on purpose, just as I am on purpose.
