“Girls can wear jeans and cut ther hair short, wear shirts and boots, because it’s okay to be a boy. But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading, because you think that being a girl is degrading. But secretly, you’d love to know what it’s like. Wouldn’t you?”

—Charlotte Gainsbourg, from The Cement Garden

Posting this because that Iggy Pop in a dress picture/quote combo that’s going around made me think of it. And because I fucking love this song. I’ve never seen the movie The Cement Garden, or read the book. I get the idea that they’re both pretty dark and fucked up, which piques my interest.
