For example, when I went to boarding school for the first time, all the girls had things like Tampax and deodorant. No one gave me that stuff or gave me the talk about how to look after yourself, even in the most basic of ways. I think that’s another reason why I, as an adult, so quickly latched on to men and was, like, You! You’re going to look after me now! As a child, I longed for adulthood, but as I got older, part of me wanted to remain a child so that I could fill up on what I felt had been missing from my life, and that was being looked after.
