I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters – Im from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered! – Shirley Manson
Possibly because I grew up not feeling very confident about my own physical appearance, I developed internal devices so that I could integrate into society. – Shirley Manson
And then theres all these other creeps that surround your band and suck off you like leeches and try to manipulate you and your business. You have to watch like a hawk. Im always ready to fight. I see it very much as a battle. – Shirley Manson
I refuse to step inside the ring and fight like a gladiator against my own. Im not playing that game. Any woman who has survived a year or more of making music has my undying respect. – Shirley Manson
