- - - - i was at night skateboarding back home, at the time nobody was around, a safety guard saw me, and talked to his fellow, " is there any women safety guard around?" ; when i was practicing skateboarding, those young boys always like to mock girl skateboarders.
        "i just think as a women in skateboarding it was just as a very solitary thing. ...... a lot of guys are intimidated by a girl being at a skate park, just as much as i am intimidated by them being there."
        "when you're learning certain tricks, think about how many times you fall. ... so i think, as a girl, that might be magnified, then it's like, you learn to not give a sh*t about it. and that's where all the power really lies"---- Nora
        "when i first started, their wasn't (girls).... people would say to me like,' oh, you are a female skateboarder,' or ' the first female pro.' or some stuff like that. i was always thinking in my mind like, what, why is it gotta have that attached to it, you know?"---- Elissa Steamer
        "it's a very sexiest sport, you always get judged being a young women,... i always love that girl sweat at that skate park. it's like just another human enjoy myself."---- Sage Elsesser
      - when i was taking photos in Nanluoguxiang by myself, i was continuously questioning my identity as a women in this area, especially after i met a really arrogant man along the way. i start feeling the same as a National Geographic female photographer said, when she started in her country ( i forgot which country, just a really small country) she's afraid of men's sexual harassment when she's taking photos alone, so she had to find a male company (which she hate to have). however, just a minute later, i met a little girl, she really help me to find my confidence and realize the advantage of women in this area, more intimacy with her subject, easier to approve the subject.
      - When i was skiing, i asked my coach how was my skill, my coach talk to me like, "you ski even better then most man here."
      - about religion, I used to believe in Buddhism, now i somehow not anymore, there are multiple reasons, but partially because there's only men in Buddhism world. yet, its a really contradict thing. also, when i went to Thailand, only women can't touch all the thing in there palace, since they considered women "not clean" because of their period. i really don't understand, such an amazing thing which highly related to the reproduction and the future of woman, how can it be considered dirty?!
      - in my family, my grandmother still hold a lot of traditional opinions, but i still don't understand why would she insist on those which put woman into superior. Once, she said to my mother that women are supposed to put clothes in those blocks under man's, and surprisingly, my mother followed that (though i know it's purely a concession in the family), but if all women are like this, women from all over the world , especially from those poorly developed area, can never change the situation.
