Excerpt from the French version of my Memoirs.
Longues marches. Une grande partie de mes souvenirs de jeunesse est entourée d’un brouillard dans mon esprit.

But they are wrong. I am a woman and like most women, I am unique in many ways and do not fit neatly into a preconceived mold of femininity or femaleness, of hormone levels, menstrual history, not even of how one is raised. I am a woman full… Read more Am I a Woman. →
