I Am Just Like Any

I Grew Up Just Outside Of Austin, And My Upbringing Was Fairly Rural.

I Think My Mother Realized She Had A Somewhat Unusual Daughter Pretty Early On.

Young Women From A Very Young Age Are Taught That Life Will Be Easier If You Can Just Turn On The Charming Smile And Say Very Little And Be Complacent And Docile And Sweet.

My Dad Used To Take My Younger Sister Whitney And I To The Firing Range, And He'd Stand Behind Us As We Shot. We Were Tiny, Tiny Girls, Only About Ten Years Old At The Time, So The Recoil When We Pulled The Trigger Would Send Us Flying Backwards. But He'd Stand Behind Us And Make Sure We Were Safe.

I Come From A Place Where I Find It Hard To Identify With A Label.
