Mental health needs a great deal of attention. It's the final taboo and it needs to be faced and dealt with.
A woman going out with a younger man feels like the last taboo.
Every teenager deals in his or her own sexuality and has to face it and figure out how it can coincide with the rest of their lives in a healthy manner. And try to navigate it in our modern society, which is wrought with stigma and taboo and repression, and sort of as a result, these inner monsters that some teenagers really struggle with.
In nicey-nicey land, you must be happy-clappy and positive all the time - bad news is taboo.
For the longest time, you couldn't even say boys and girls were different. It was taboo in the educational world.
I always thought of vampires, especially the young-adult ones, as a metaphor for sex - sucking blood, forbidden, taboo. I think they just ooze sex. Vampires are all the big themes in life in one attractive, bloodsucking package.
I don't know why it's still a taboo to be a feminist.
The truth is I never think of any subject as taboo.
I can understand why some people might look at me and say, 'What's she got to be depressed about?' I get that a lot in Britain, where mental health issues seem to be a big taboo.
Now when you have administrators deciding what sexuality is, and what's a taboo and what's not in terms of content, you got guys, like, Trent Lott who equates homosexuality with a disease.
