Becoming George - Fiona Sampson

29.49 €

My friends will respect me, I hope, just as much under my jacket as under my dress. Be reassured, I do not aspire to the dignity of man. It seems to me too laughable to be much preferable to the servility of woman. But I claim to possess, today and forever, the superb and complete independence which you alone believe you have the right to enjoy. So take me for a man or a woman as you wish.
