The protagonist, an unknown woman, wears a soft green ribbon tied tightly around her neck. What is hidden behind this is a mystery to everyone who reads it. But it's no secret that this ribbon is the same symbol for all women. It symbolizes a secret we desperately keep hidden because women have a right to keep. This tape contains all the fears, integrity, and ambiguity that make us feel most vulnerable when we share it. This is confirmed by numerous quotations from this letter. The protagonist's reaction whenever her husband or even her own child, a boy, doubts her purpose or dares to touch her. This tape binds her and holds her boundless folds when untied.
