this is my comment
"People in the States used to think that if girls were good at sports their sexuality would be affected. Being feminine meant being a cheerleader, not being an athlete. The image of women is changing now. You don't have to be pretty for people to come and see you play. At the same time, if you're a good athlete, it doesn't mean you're not a woman." -Martina Navratilova
There's something liberating about not pretending.
Dare to embarrass yourself. Risk.
-Drew Barrymore

sonnet 14
If thou must love me, let it be for nought/
Except for love's sake only. Do not say/
I love her for her smile--her look--her way/
Of speaking gently,--for a trick of thought/
That falls in well with mine, and certes brought/
A sense of ease on such a day-- /
For these things in themselves, Belovèd, may/
Be changed, or change for thee,--and love, so wrought,/
May be unwrought so. Neither love me for/
Thine own dear pity's wiping my cheek dry,-- /
A creature might forget to weep, who bore/
Thy comfort long, and lose thy love thereby!/
But love me for love's sake, that evermore/
Thou may'st love on, through love's eternity.
-by Elizabeth Barret Browning
