Kathleen Hanna
I'm a very binary person in a bad way where it's like everything is either totally great or totally awful.
Kathleen Hanna
The more people, as you know, are able to be on whatever spectrum of femininity and masculinity they are on at that moment, that opens the door for women to not have to be the opposite of what the supposed traditional male is.
Kathleen Hanna
I need to see my friends or I'm gonna go crazy. I'm not gonna stay home and work.
