I had the serendipity of modeling during a temporary interlude between Twiggy and Kate Moss, when it was actually okay for women to look as if we ate and enjoyed life.
You know, women have a history of just being - we`ve been told all our lives not to say - in the fifties you couldn`t say birth or even be pregnant hardly on television - and then gradually things have changed.
When I`m saying hysteria, I`m referring to Freud, because all the women were coming to him with symptoms and seeking help, and he just called it hysteria.
They showed this one beautiful picture of me recently and they had all the things that I had done. I thought it was a great compliment for everybody to think I`ve had plastic surgery.
It`s okay to talk about birth, okay - then menstruation. I first started my advocacy for women`s health in the field of reproductive freedom, and the next stage would be bringing menopause out of the closet.
