“Looking at women was not really sexual for me. I loved Janey and she was sexual, but looking at women was a way of looking at myself and, I suppose, a way of loving myself. I don’t know how it would have been if I had wanted boys, but I didn’t. I liked some of them but I didn’t desire any of them. Not then. Not yet.”


(Also affirming how she doesn’t quantify “liking” as “desire”)

I cannot emphasize enough. This book is so incredible. Thank you Gabby <3
