The last of earth left to discover

Julie Power: I know who I am.  I’m Julie Power. I like reading and acting. I was born in Richmond, Virginia, and I have two brothers and a sister. I’m not some.. some symbol or label.

Striker: So you’re not gay?

Julie Power: I — God, I don’t know.  Everyone’s all “pick a side.”  Like it’s Yankees/Red Sox.  When I… have feelings for a person, it’s for that person. Not their gender. Can’t you just like someone without it being a political statement?
