“Jag lägger upp bilder på Instagram som jag anser vittnar om min skönhet och sedan bevakar jag som besatt antalet lajks för att se om internet håller med. Jag samlar in den här sortens data i högre utsträckning än jag vill medge, allt i ett försök att mäta min attraktionskraft så objektivt och brutalt som möjligt. Jag gör en uppskattning av min skönhet med siffror, som ett sätt att skydda mig själv – så att jag ska veta exakt hur mycket makt och kärlek jag kan göra anspråk på.”
