'Pink is my favourite colour. I used to say my favourite colour was black to be cool, but it is pink – all shades of pink. If I have an accessory, it is probably pink.

I've recently delved into the world of feminist literature and so it was bound to happen that I would read Roxane Gay's Bad Feminist.
