"be what women feel comfortable with you being, around other men" this right here is MASSIVE. we forget as a society that its not only men judging us or labeling us but most importantly its our own kind, women, at times being even more judgmental than the men towards a sexually liberated and daring woman. I personally know many girls like this and they are easily threatened by any remotely attractive woman in their vicinity and it boils their blood to see a girl like that who is confident and unapologetic.

This woman saved my life. I was suicidal when I came out, because my family had such a hard time with it. But Madonna came on tv -I already loved her music - and said in an interview, "Gay people are my biggest fans - I wouldn't have a career without them! My brother is gay."
I knew in that moment if Madonna could love me, someone out there would love me for who I am. So, I lived.
It sounds dramatic, and it's is, but it's 100 percent the truth.

I’m SOoooo proud to say I’ve met Madonna!!! In 2009! In a private house social in London!! She was so nice!!! No celeb ego classist nonsense. She was wearing a tracksuit and was holding her adopted baby from Africa. Her face was like porcelain, flawless. She was really nice and treated everyone as equals. I’m glad I met her! 💖

Watching this 7 years later.. what a powerful and profound speech that brought me to tears.. truth is, I used to be THAT woman, the one who judged you, who would criticize you for what you looked like, acted, and behaved, I put myself on a pedestal and thought of myself as a woman of "values" who would never put myself out there as you did. How wrong was I... the beauty of aging brings wisdom though... I now know that subconsciously I was envious, not of your fame or fortune, but envious of your ability to be comfortable in your own skin, so comfortable with who you are, that other's opinions did not matter. My takeaways from this speech are to ACCEPT and embrace who you are, fully, your past and your present, your warts and all that goes with it, and to be GRATEFUL, not only for the people who support and agree with you but more so those that do not, as how you react to those who don't agree with you is your CHOICE, Madonna CHOSE to take motivation and inspiration from those who did not agree with her.
