“It was hard for me to do the show (All-American Girl) because a lot of people didn't even understand the concept of Asian-American. I was on a morning show and the host said, "Awright, Margaret, we're changing over to an ABC affiliate! So why don't you tell our viewers in your native language that we're making that transition?"

“Martina Navratilova is not a 'girl,' nor is Debi Thomas or Katarina Witt, and the women skaters weren't 'cute' in 1988.

“Before I knew that I was Jewish or a girl I knew that I was a member of the working class.

“I prefer girls to wear dresses because I like how they influence a woman's body language. I also love skirts. One of my favorite pieces of clothing is the pencil skirt because it obliges the wearer to have a pretty attitude. I like anything that shows a woman's legs because I love to see her skin and how she walks.” ShowsBodyGirlLanguageWalksAttitudePiecesInfluenceSkinsDressesMy FavoriteLegsClothingsPencilsSkirtsBody LanguageWomen's Bodies Author:Christian Louboutin
